Italian term

passaggi all’acqua

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Manufacturing
l'impianto di produzione, prima linea a utilizzare tutti i passaggi all’acqua, con impatto ambientale nullo

This is a joinery works and the text has previously emphasised the use of water-borne paints as part of its environmental credentials. Could "passaggi" here mean the different stages of manufacture, i.e. water based processes?
Any ideas gratefully received.

Note from asker:
Thank you for your quick answer Constantinos, which was very reassuring; if you had been able to quote some evidence in confirmation, I would have awarded you the points despite Rossella's probably correct interpretation.
