Clean environment thanks to sustainable industrial cleaners: Efficiency meets environmental protection
Industrial cleaners have become an integral part of modern production and working environments. Whether cleaning cooling units, tiles, machines or workshop floors - they make a decisive contribution to hygiene and occupational safety.
With an annual growth rate of around 4%, the global market for industrial cleaners reflects the increasing importance of these products. In particular, the trend towards environmentally friendly, biodegradable solutions is becoming increasingly important.
A key driver of this development is the increasing environmental awareness in industry and society. Particularly in sensitive areas such as the food and beverage industry, the demands on cleaning performance are especially high while at the same time being environmentally friendly and legally compliant.
Regular cleaning intervals, as prescribed throughout the EU in the food and catering industry for refrigerators, freezers and refrigerated display cases, require products that are not only effective, but also material-compatible and sustainable.
However, the reality is often different: Many conventional industrial cleaners are based on organic solvents and are categorised as hazardous, toxic or highly flammable. Such products are increasingly at odds with current ESG criteria and regulatory requirements such as REACH, HACCP or the avoidance of MOSH/MOAH residues.
One solution is offered by OKS Spezialschmierstoffe, part of the Freudenberg Group of companies and competence leader for sustainable lubricants and chemical-technical products. With the product OKS 2650 Industrial Cleaner, OKS presents an innovative, water-based cleaner that fulfils the highest ecological and hygienic requirements.
The alkaline concentrate is readily biodegradable (85% in 28 days according to DIN EN 2988), does not require labelling and is NSF-certified.
The absence of aggressive ingredients means that no harmful vapours are produced during use. This makes it particularly suitable for use in food-related areas and sensitive industrial environments.
At the same time, OKS 2650 is very versatile and reliably cleans a wide variety of surfaces - from ceramics to metal and plastic. Thanks to its good separation behaviour, OKS 2650 is particularly gentle on refrigerators, drinks and vending machines as well as tiles, ceramics and natural stone. This is why the product is also used for cleaning and maintaining wind turbine rotor blades.
OKS 2650 thus combines efficiency, environmental friendliness and legal safety in one product and actively contributes to a sustainably clean industrial environment.
At a time when ecological action and economic success can no longer be a contradiction in terms, OKS is setting new standards with the industrial cleaner OKS 2650 - for a clean future.
