It’s not just about performance—it’s about protecting people and the planet.

In industries such as metal parts manufacturing and electronics assembly, precision cleaning is a critical step. Removing oil, metal debris, and contaminants ensures product quality. For years, solvents like TCE (Trichloroethylene) and MC (Methylene Chloride) were widely used for their excellent cleaning power. However, a growing number of manufacturers are now transitioning away from these chemicals—not because they clean poorly, but because of their serious health and environmental risks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🔎 What Are TCE and MC? And Why Are They Problematic?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TCE and MC are chlorinated solvents once common in both open and vacuum-based cleaning systems. Despite their effectiveness, they are now classified as hazardous substances in many countries.

Key concerns include:
- Carcinogenic (cancer-causing), per international health agencies
- Adverse effects on the central nervous system and liver
- Highly volatile – vapor inhalation is a major safety hazard
- Require strict ventilation and temperature control
- Not environmentally friendly, with risks to ozone depletion and soil/water contamination

🔄 Why Hydrocarbon Solvents Are a Safer Alternative
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hydrocarbon-based cleaning agents have become the preferred choice for modern manufacturers seeking high cleaning performance without compromising safety.

Advantages of hydrocarbon solvents:
- Non-toxic and non-corrosive
- Higher boiling point = lower evaporation and vapor exposure
- Ideal for closed-loop cleaning systems with circulation and filtration
- Can be recycled and reused multiple times
- Low odor – reduces the need for large fume extraction systems
- Much safer for operators and the working environment

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
✅ Why More Companies Are Switching to Hydrocarbon Cleaning
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Compliance with global health, safety, and environmental regulations
2. Cost savings through solvent recycling and reduced waste
3. Improved workplace safety and reduced health risks
4. Easier regulatory inspections and environmental audits
5. Supports CSR initiatives and international sustainability standards
