Your employees still have to use cleaners with hazard symbols? The cleaners are working fine and you see no reason to change anything? The potential hazards seem to be under control with the use of PPE? So why change anything if there doesn't seem to be a need? That's still the thinking of many companies. So the justification for cleaners such as MEK, NMP, toluene, ethyl acetate, terpenes, etc. still seems to be there, even though many veteran cleaners have been shown to be carcinogenic, for example. Certainly, in 99% of companies, the will is there to protect employees from hazards. However, taking a step into the unknown by switching to new types of cleaners requires courage and active action. Often this fails, even if the intention is there. From our own experience, however, we can say that there are many good reasons to actively take the step toward safe cleaners.
Many of our customers now approach us and are happy to have substituted the dangerous cleaners, because their employees have long since honored the better working conditions. Even if the change was not accepted by everyone at first.
The advantages are obvious.
After the changeover, supervisors and decision-makers no longer have to justify the use of hazardous cleaners to auditors or superiors. Possible fines or sanctions, e.g. for exceeding workplace limits, which are no longer a rarity due to increasingly restrictive specifications, could also be circumvented by customers using our cleaners. In addition to the aspect of occupational safety, the economic factor thus plays an increasingly important role in the decision for the right cleaner. And what if your own customer places great emphasis on the issue of occupational safety, but you still use chemical pesticides and your customer finds out about it? In the end, it's things like this that can set you apart from the competition.
