CLEANERS / Metal Cleaning Chemicals

“In the race for quality, the perfect finish comes from a clean start”

In metal finishing, the quality of the final surface is determined at the cleaning stage. Our metal cleaning chemicals remove oils, greases, machining residues, oxide films, and shop contamination, leaving surfaces chemically active and process-ready for reliable downstream finishing, plating, or coating.

Our portfolio of alkaline soak cleaners and electrolytic cleaners covers ferrous and non-ferrous metals across a wide range of industrial applications, with metal-specific variants to match your exact substrate and process requirements.

ALKALINE SOAK CLEANERS

Effective cleaning sets the performance ceiling for everything that follows. Our alkaline soak cleaners remove standard surface contaminants, machining oils, forming lubricants, greasy residues, and shop dirt from ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Because every metal cleans differently, we offer a wide range of metal-specific formulation variants, each designed to deliver thorough contamination removal while fully preserving substrate integrity.

Designed for immersion and soak tank operations, these industrial cleaners provide consistent cleaning action across high-volume production processes. Surfaces emerge bright, water-break-free, and chemically active fully prepared for plating, coating, or any subsequent surface treatment.

Feature Benefit
Metal-specific variants Optimised cleaning for steel, copper, zinc, aluminium, brass & more
Organic contaminant removal Strips machining oils, lubricants, greases & handling residues
Soak & immersion operation Consistent, repeatable cleaning across batch and conveyor line processes
Active surface finish Parts exit water-break-free and ready for downstream finishing
ELECTROLYTIC CLEANERS
Our electrolytic cleaners are highly reliable and industry-tested, providing a significantly more powerful cleaning action than conventional soak cleaning alone. Suitable for anodic and cathodic operation on ferrous metals, including steel, and on non-ferrous substrates, they remove stubborn contaminants, scale, oxides, smut, embedded particulates, and tenacious grease that chemical cleaning alone cannot address.

The electrochemical action lifts and dislodges soils directly from the substrate surface, ensuring parts are thoroughly decontaminated and electrochemically activated before plating, electrocoating, or protective surface treatment. A dependable choice for demanding applications where surface quality cannot be compromised.

Feature Benefit
Anodic & cathodic operation Flexible configuration for different metals and process requirements
Tenacious soil removal Removes scale, oxides, smut & embedded particulates
Electrolytic surface activation Highest level of cleanliness and activation prior to plating
Industry-tested reliability Proven in demanding, high-volume production environments
THIRD CLEANER TYPE

New metal cleaning chemical solutions are currently in development to support a wider range of substrate types and process configurations. These will be added to our portfolio as they become available.
