Industrial & Institutional cleaning is one of the most challenging areas for surfactants. The different types of soiling, cleaning processes and formulation environments require a good understanding of the cleaning mechanism for each application and the selection of the right surfactant system.
From low foam to foam with retention time on vertical surfaces, Kao surfactants are ready to be formulated with a comprehensive knowledge of industrial cleaning application.
Industrial Cleaning
Industrial cleaners are general degreasing formulations designed to remove organic and inorganic soiling. The selection of powerful ingredients for the right formulation are the key to their success. Kao provides surfactants that are the core part of any formulation, adding value to formulation guidelines and testing capabilities to different conditions.
Institutional Cleaning
From schools and hospitals to offices and restaurants, surfactants are key to efficient institutional cleaning. Drivers are effective, sustainable and fast acting formulations.
Car Care
Like many car owners, we are passionate about keeping cars clean. Kao surfactants deliver foam, cleaning and fast drying solutions through the washing process in the car-wash tunnel. Higher pressure stations for truck cleaning are needed for the quality dispersing and degreasing surfactants that eliminate grime, road-film and large dirt particles.
Food & Beverage Cleaning
Food & Beverage cleaning includes the cleaning of facilities where food is processed, including slaughterhouses, breweries, dairy and the food processing industry. Surfactants used for these applications are tested to the highest standard of cleaning efficiency and stability for the toughest of cleaning jobs, to leave surfaces hygienic and free from any residue that could compromise the safety of the final consumers.
