Biodegradable, recyclable, potent, and powerful yet safe solvent cleaners derived from agricultural plants have the potential to revolutionize industrial cleaning applications. These types of cleaners are made from natural, renewable resources and are free from harsh chemicals and toxic substances, making them a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly alternative to traditional solvent cleaners.
One of the main benefits of using biodegradable, plant-based solvent cleaners is that they :
- Prevents harm to the environment
- Clean and protect surfaces at the same time
- Do not have storage and disposal restrictions
- Allergen free
- Non Bioaccumulative
- Made from renewable resources
- Meet strict compliance standards
- Carbon positive and contributes to circular economy
- Meet standards of biodegradability- Can be tested to comply with The Modified Strum 301B , which is the universal standard to test for organic content of a given liquid material
Traditional solvent cleaners can release harmful pollutants into the air and water, and can have negative effects on both human health and the environment. They are normally composed of Caustics, Phosphates, Nitrates, Amines , Butyl Cellosolve, Petroleum products , strong acids and similar chemicals that are known toxins and have severe bioaccumulative potential.
In contrast, plant-based solvent cleaners are biodegradable, meaning that they break down naturally in the environment and do not contribute to pollution. They can also be recycled and reused, reducing the need for constant disposal and production of new products.
Another benefit of using plant-based solvent cleaners is that they are often more effective than traditional cleaners. Many plant-based solvents are derived from powerful essential oils and other natural compounds that have been used for centuries in traditional medicine and cleaning applications. It’s well known that the kB value., or the dissolving value of a plant based cleaner is far more than a chemical based product. These Bio-based compounds also have potent antimicrobial and cleaning properties other than the fact that they can effectively remove dirt, grime, and other contaminants from a wide range of surfaces.
Industries that can benefit from the use of biodegradable, plant-based solvent cleaners include:
- Manufacturing Industry: As standards of safety and compliances kick in, traditional solvent cleaners can be found wanting as they are harsh and abrasive This can cause damage to sensitive equipment and surfaces in the manufacturing industry. Plant-based solvent cleaners are gentler and more effective, making them a great option for cleaning and maintaining industrial equipment and surfaces in manufacturing plants.
- Healthcare: The healthcare industry requires a high level of cleanliness and hygiene to prevent the spread of infection. Plant-based solvent cleaners are non-toxic and biodegradable, making them a safe and effective option for cleaning and disinfecting hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare facilities.
- Food and beverage industry: The food and beverage industry requires a high level of cleanliness to maintain food safety and quality. Plant-based solvent cleaners are food-grade safe and can be used in the cleaning of equipment and surfaces in food processing plants, packaging facilities, and other food-related industries. The Food Industry is in need of safety products , as strict compliances are observed. Therefore compliances like HACCP & FDA are implemented. Such compliances are far easily observed by Bio Based cleaners.
- Agriculture: Plant-based solvent cleaners can be used in the agricultural industry for cleaning and disinfecting equipment, tools, and surfaces on farms and in greenhouses. They can also be used in the treatment of seed and growing media to prevent the spread of diseases and pests.
- Construction: In construction, plant-based solvent cleaners can be used to clean and maintain heavy machinery and equipment, as well as to remove dust and debris from construction sites.
Overall, biodegradable, plant-based solvent cleaners have the potential to revolutionize industrial cleaning applications by providing a more sustainable, environmentally-friendly, and effective alternative to traditional solvent cleaners. These types of cleaners can be used in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, healthcare, food and beverage, agriculture, and construction, and can help to improve the cleanliness, safety, and efficiency of these industries
