Cleaning

Cleaning is an essential process stage prior to any surface treatment, directly influencing the quality of the final product. "Clean surface" refers to varying quality requirements, and we offer a comprehensive selection of cleaners to address our customer´s needs: from standard solutions to high-performance, eco-conscious option. Our solutions are designed to meet the demands of different applications. 

For most applications, cleaning ensures a residue-free and wettable surface that prepares the material for subsequent processes, typically a water-based conversion coating. The effectiveness of the cleaning step is directly tied to the quality of the finished product. 

Our cleaners are formulated to ensure consistent reactivity for chemical treatments, protect against staining (important in industries like beverage can production), and maintain weldability, where required. They also support gloss or matting effects, as needed, and are compatible with paint applications and bonding processes. 

In addition to meeting these performance criteria, our cleaning technologies prioritize both economic and ecological benefits. Features such as automated process control and efficient bath maintenance as well as low temperature cleaners help reduce costs and extend bath life. Systems like wastewater-free units with evaporators or static separators further enhance sustainability and operational efficiency.
