Environmentally Better Metal Cleaning
Environmentally better metal cleaning is possible. In today’s world where safety, compliance and energy efficiency are paramount, vapor degreasing is a modern, planet-friendly cleaning option. Fortunately, there are a number of good choices for ‘greener’ cleaning fluids too.
Modern metal cleaning fluids meet strict global environmental regulations to help manufacturers replace outdated chlorinated solvents, like TCE (Trichloroethylene) and nPB (n-propyl bromide) that contribute to ground water and air quality problems. MicroCare offers modern cleaning fluids that are not considered HAPs (Hazardous Air Pollutants) and do not require NESHAP permits. They are safer for people and gentler on the planet.
