The anterior facial vein, also known as the facial vein, is a major blood vessel located in the human facial structure. It drains blood from the facial region and transports it back to the heart. It originates at the angular vein located near the nose and travels downward through the face, ending at the internal jugular vein in the neck. This vein has no valves and communicates with the veins of the nasal, orbital and cranial cavities, making it clinically significant in the spreading of infections from the face to the cranial cavity.

Encasement is the coating over, covering or encasing of all building components, interior and exterior. This includes all roofing and toxic hazards materials, such as asbestos, lead-based paint, mold/mildew and other harmful substances, found in buildings. The technique of encasing all building components, including unsafe ones, with green coatings is by far the most efficient way to reduce the harmful effects on people and the environment while lengthening the life of buildings. It is an economical alternative to other abatement methods such as removal, disposal and replacement.
Encasement with green coatings is a long-term, sustainable, and renewable solution compared to typical paints or coatings which only last a few years. In place management and restoration with encasement green coatings is the best and most practical way to extend a buildings life along with safely dealing with most of its components.
Encasement is also less disruptive of ongoing services. It does not require shutting down buildings or having to relocate occupants, which is costly and time-consuming. Most work can be completed with minimal amount of time and with no building disruption at all.
Encasement with green coatings can result in savings of 25% to 75% over removal and replacement, and extend the life of most building surfaces.
Green coatings have no environmental downside to using them. They are non-toxic, water based, low VOCs, (volatile organic compounds), no ODS (Ozone Depleting Substances), and Class A fire rated. The products are backed up with toxicological reports proving that they are so clean, that pregnant women and children can be present when applying them.
Green coatings used for encasement should be extremely durable, long lasting and able to take a lot of abuse. They must be especially flexible; being able to elongate with the expanding and contracting of any typical building movements.
