Novec replacements come with extensive MicroCare technical support with ongoing training and advice to make your transition to a Novec alternative fluid a healthy success for the planet, your workers and your bottom line
In most cases, the MicroCare Novec solvent replacements use your existing vapor degreaser. After emptying and cleaning your equipment, the replacement for the Novec fluid "drops in" to your degreaser without a major change to your cleaning process. That means you won’t have to re-train operators on an entirely new process.

Contact us today and discuss with our experts which MicroCare fluid (Tergo™, MicroCare, Vertrel™ or Opteon™) is right for you.
