An empty can of "Lechler 04 380 Polydur Zinc Putty", a universal knifing polyester putty of medium grain with very high filling power. Suitable to fill big imperfections on normal steel sheets and zinc coated steel sheets of car bodies and industrial vehicles. Produced by Ponte Chiasso (Como), the Italian subsidiary of the German paint company, Lechler. Ponte Chiasso gained its independence from its parent company, Lechler, in 1910. This can ended up on Lebanese territories due the toxic waste deal between the Italian Mafia and the Lebanese Forces. This image was taken by Pierre Malychef in the late 1980s.

Image taken by Pierre Malychef of a group of barrels from the ca. 15,800 barrels carrying the toxic waste trade. Some of the worn barrels contained Dicofol, a highly toxic pesticide whose production and use are banned internationally under the Stockholm Convention. Dicofol is a nerve poison that can also lead to skin and eye toxic reactions in humans and endamage the fertility of several birds, reptiles, aquatic invertebrates and algae. Since Dicofol can be stored in fatty tissues, intense activity or starvation may re-catalyze the chemical, resulting in the reappearance of toxic symptoms long after actual exposure.

Toxic Waste
Two cans of paint and coating, produced by the Italian chemical company, Industrie Vernici Italiane ("Italian Paint Industry") stylized as I.V.I, that specialized in the production of paints. Starting 1983, I.V.I, then-majoritarily owned by Fiat, was gradually sold to the American multinational company, PPG Industries Inc. The selling of the entire shares was effectuated in 1992. Following a lawsuit filed by American environmental organizations, Penn Environment and Sierra Club, in 2012, PPG Industries, Inc. was found liable in 2018 for decades of pollutants discharge in the Allegheny River.

These cans ended up on Lebanese territories due the toxic waste deal between the Italian Mafia and the Lebanese Forces. The author of this image is unspecified.
