Industrial Detergents & Cleaners

Industrial detergents and cleaners are formulated to remove heavy grease, oil, carbon deposits, industrial soils and general grime from machinery, factory floors, workshops and industrial facilities. AIMS Industrial stocks a range of heavy-duty cleaning products for maintenance cleaning, parts washing and facility hygiene.

Heavy-Duty Degreasers and Alkaline Cleaners

Alkaline detergents and degreasers are effective on petroleum-based soils including engine grease, hydraulic oil, cutting fluid residue and lubricant film on machinery surfaces and floors. High-alkalinity formulations in concentrate form are diluted for use in pressure washers, scrubbing machines, parts washers and mop systems. Lower-concentration formulations in ready-to-use formats are suitable for bench-top cleaning, equipment wipe-downs and spot degreasing.

Solvent and Citrus Cleaners

Solvent-based and citrus-extract cleaners provide fast action on adhesive residues, bitumen, tar, heavy oil and grease deposits that water-based alkaline cleaners do not remove effectively. Available in aerosol and liquid formats for targeted application on machinery and vehicle components.

Parts Washing Detergents

Purpose-formulated parts washing detergents work in both cold-clean and heated parts washer cabinets and tanks, keeping the bath clean longer and removing machined parts contamination effectively. Water-based detergents have replaced solvent-based cabinet cleaners in most modern workshop environments due to waste disposal regulations and health and safety requirements.
