Key Features
- Eco-Friendly and Biodegradable: Unlike traditional solvent-based degreasers, water-based degreasers are generally non-toxic and biodegradable, making them safe for the environment. They help reduce harmful emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and can be disposed of more easily without harming aquatic life or polluting soil.
- Non-Flammable: Water-based degreasers are non-flammable, providing a safer option for use in environments with high risks of fire or explosion. This makes them particularly useful for cleaning machinery and equipment in confined spaces or areas where heat and sparks are present.
- Effective Oil and Grease Removal: Despite being solvent-free, water-based degreasers are formulated with high-performance surfactants that are capable of emulsifying and lifting heavy grease, oil, and contaminants from surfaces. The product penetrates oily soils and lifts them from metal, plastic, rubber, and other materials.
- Versatile and Safe for Most Surfaces: Water-based degreasers can be used on a wide variety of surfaces, including metal, painted surfaces, plastics, glass, rubber, and fabric. Unlike solvent-based products, which may damage or weaken certain materials, water-based degreasers are safer for use on delicate components, making them ideal for both industrial and household cleaning tasks.
- Non-Corrosive Formula: Water-based degreasers are typically formulated to be non-corrosive, preventing damage to sensitive metal components such as aluminum, stainless steel, and brass. This ensures that regular cleaning with the product will not degrade or weaken the surface, extending the lifespan of equipment.
- Dilutable for Different Applications: One of the major advantages of water-based degreasers is their flexibility in use. The product can be diluted with water to suit different cleaning intensities. For light-duty cleaning, a higher dilution ratio can be used, while for tougher, grease-laden surfaces, the product can be used in a more concentrated form.
- Low Odor: Water-based degreasers typically have a low odor compared to solvent-based options, making them more pleasant to work with, especially in confined or poorly ventilated spaces. This also makes them more user-friendly for household or indoor use.
- Cost-Effective: Being water-based, the degreaser is cost-effective due to its dilutability and large surface coverage. It is ideal for industries requiring bulk cleaning solutions without compromising performance.”
