INDUSTRIAL & Institutional cleaners:
performance under pressure
Formulating for indsutrial-scale cleaning
Industrial cleaners face extreme demands: heavy soils, greasy buildup, and mineral deposits – all under highly acidic or alkaline conditions. Many formulations still rely on synthetic polymers that limit eco-compatibility and robustness.
Emerging bio-based solutions
Borregaard’s natural1 ingredients open new opportunities for formulators seeking sustainable performance:
- Exilva: Delivers robust thickening, vertical cling, and stable viscosity – even in extreme pH environments. Ideal for acidic descalers, degreasers, and CIP systems.
- LignoBrite: Offers strong dispersing and anti-redeposition power, while also complexing calcium and iron. Effective in both acidic and caustic systems – including concentrated industrial cleaners.
Together, they provide a viable alternative to synthetic thickeners and dispersants – unlocking performance with a sustainability edge.
Use areas
- Consentrated caustic-based cleaners
- Industrial dishwashing and laundry
- Paint strippers and degreasers
- Equipment and floor cleaners
- Food grade descalers
- CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems
