CAUSTIC
Caustic products are used to remove difficult soils such as fats, greases and oils and are the workhorse in food factory cleaning. In particular, heavy caustic products are used to remove burnt on or polymerised oils and fats which can build up on fryers and cooking vessels. Lighter caustic products are effective in removing oily soil such as found on equipment, conveyor belts, choppers, floors and tables etc used in chicken cutting, sausage or pie production (as examples).
Caustic products generally convert oils and fats into soap via a chemical saponification reaction which enables the oil/fat to be solubilsed/emulsified and easily rinsed away.

OPEN PLANT CLEANING (OPC)
Chemclean™ film - OPC
FoodClean’s film technology, is only available from FoodClean.
The technology uses ‘thickening on dilution’ chemistry which produces foams that transform, when applied to equipment, walls, floors and other surfaces to give a ‘sticky’ water soluble film which adheres exceptionally well to vertical and horizontal surfaces giving an unbeatably long contact time.
CHEMCLEAN™ FILM is a liquid alkaline blend of detergent, scale agents and grease cutting agents formulated for:
- Oils, fats, grease, protein from meat, fish, dairy and beverage processing.
- Difficult to remove build ups containing mixtures of soils (oily compound soils).
- CHEMCLEAN™ FILM may be used on soft metals such as brass an aluminium when used at the recommended concentration range.
- CHEMCLEAN™ FILM has been formulated to deal with very hard water.
D-Grease™ - OPC
D-GREASE™ is an alkaline blend of detergents, anti-scale agents and grease cutting agents, developed for use in Food, Dairy and Beverage industries. These ingredients stabilise, suspend and emulsify oils and fats.
D-GREASE™ when foamed gives a stable foam with long contact times on vertical surfaces and complicated shapes allowing the detergents to act on grease and light fats.
D-GREASE™ is unaffected by hard water.
Applications include: oily deposits on conveyor belts for lean meats, snacks, pork pies, oily sauces/mayonnaise and the cleaning of greasy external panels, fittings and floor surfaces.
D-GREASE™ is safe for use on aluminium and soft metals when used as directed.
D-GREASE™ PLUS - OPC
D-GREASE™ PLUS is an alkaline blend of detergents, anti-scale agents and grease cutting agents, developed for use in Food, Dairy and Beverage industries. These ingredients stabilise, suspend and emulsify oils and fats.
D-GREASE™ PLUS when foamed gives a stable thick foam with long contact times on vertical surfaces and complicated shapes allowing the powerful detergents to act on grease, fat and protein soils.
D-GREASETM PLUS is unaffected by hard water.
Applications include: oily deposits on conveyor belts for lean meats, snacks, pork pies, oily sauces/mayonnaise and the cleaning of greasy external panels, fittings and floor surfaces.
Do not use on soft metals
Hi-Alk™ - OPC
HI-ALK™ is a very strong caustic foam cleaner suitable for use in the Food, Dairy and Beverage industries. It is designed for use on heavy burnt-on soiling such as fats, protein, cooking oils, polymerised oils and smoke residue.
HI-ALK™ contains high levels of caustic soda, concentrated detergents and solubilisers giving excellent soil removal and suspending properties.
Applications include: heavy deposits of oils, fats, grease even when burnt on, difficult to remove build ups containing mixtures of soils (compound soils).
HI-ALK™ gives exceptional stable foam and long contact times on vertical surfaces and complicated shaped machinery, allowing the powerful detergents to act on heavy grease, fat, protein and other difficult soils.
Do not use on soft metals
Hi-Alk Film™ (RTU) - OPC
FoodClean’s film technology, is only available from FoodClean.
The technology uses ‘thickening on dilution’ chemistry which produces foams that transform, when applied to equipment, walls, floors and other surfaces to give a ‘sticky’ water soluble film which adheres exceptionally well to vertical and horizontal surfaces giving an unbeatably long contact time.
HI-ALK™ FILM (RTU) is a very strong caustic foam cleaner suitable for use in the Food, Dairy and Beverage industries. It is designed for use on heavy burnt-on soiling such as fats, protein, cooking oils, polymerised oils and smoke residue which require prolonged periods of contact to give a good cleaning effect.
Do not use on soft metals.
CLEAN IN PLACE (CIP)
Flocip C - CIP
FLOCIP™ C is a powerful and fast acting liquid caustic designed for recirculation and CIP applications in the Food, Dairy and Beverage industries.
The blend of caustic and sequestering agents in FLOCIP™ C ensures quick penetration and rapid removal of heavy soils and is most suitable for hard water.
Do not use on soft metals
FRIER - 1025d
FRIER-1025D is a heavy duty, powerful and fast acting liquid caustic designed for recirculation, CIP applications and tank/vessel cleaning.
The blend of caustic and sequestering agents in FRIER-1025D ensures quick penetration and rapid removal of heavy solids and is suitable for use in hard water.
Suitable for use on heavily soiled friers, polymerised oil and charred soil.
Do not use on soft metals.
Caus25 - CIP
CAUS25 is a powerful and fast acting liquid caustic designed for recirculation and CIP applications in the Food, Dairy and Beverage industries.
The blend of caustic and sequestering agents in CAUS25 ensures quick penetration and rapid removal of heavy soils and is most suitable for hard water.
Do not use on soft metals
