Effective cleaning of machined or formed parts is a key step in all manufacturing processes.
At IPC, we understand for a surface to be successfully plated or painted, it must first be free of contaminants. Our cleaners remove dirt, cutting oil, metal fines, flux, and other particulates from stamped metal and precision parts without the hazards associated with solvents. An economical 1-2% concentration in water is effective for most cleaning applications.
Our cleaners are also proven in removing soils from filter membranes used in wastewater treatment systems.
