Analysis & stocktaking

The initial analysis of the customer's cleaning processes revealed that conventional cleaning agents were not achieving the desired results. Residues and deposits led to increased maintenance costs and impaired machine performance. In addition, the cleaning agents used were being criticised for their environmentally harmful and unhealthy ingredients. Our experts thoroughly analysed the machines and the existing cleaning processes in order to develop a customised solution.

Based on the results of the analysis, Eco-Nova recommended the use of “Microsolv NX” for cleaning metalworking machinery. During in-depth consultation sessions, the advantages of the cleaner were highlighted: Microsolv NX is not only effective at removing stubborn dirt, but is also gentle on the machinery and easy to use. Furthermore, according to the safety data sheet, Microsolv NX is not classified as hazardous. Our consultants drew up a bespoke cleaning plan that took into account the customer’s specific requirements and circumstances.
