Not going Green? - why
Natural still makes more sense
When Prochem Europe launched its acclaimed Natural Range, it met
inevitably with the important approval of the 'green clean' lobby. Yet,
it also resonated with cleaning specialists that were not necessarily
marketing off the 'eco' platform.
Paul Reynolds, Chemical Product Manager, E H & S at Prochem explained
why three specific solutions have gained the interest of not only
'green' cleaners, but those still using more conventional chemical
products.
Unique within the Prochem Europe range, E247 Natural Carpet Deodoriser
is its only bio-enzymatic deodorizer and is effective against organic
soils and malodorous substances, including urine and other offensive and
problematic odours.
So how does it work? "It's a two-phase action," says Paul.
"Natural biological cultures in the product digest the organic matter
and break down any problem chemicals such as urine while a powerful
odour absorber chemically alters and neutralises volatile odours
rendering them undetectable, or in other words non-volatile."
Encapsulation technology within this product prevents any sticky
residues, whilst the natural lavender, orange and peppermint fragrance
leaves a pleasing smell.
How is it applied? "By carpet pressure spray applicator," Paul says.
"You you allow at least a fifteen minute dwell time for the biological
cultures and deodorisation process to work with a final rinse
extraction.
"Remember that this is not intended as a deodoriser additive and due to
its bio-enzymatic action, not recommended for use on wool," he adds.
Natural Carpet Deodoriser is a ready-to-use product available in 1L
spray and 5L pack sizes.
Verified by independent testing, E457 Natural Multi-Surface Cleaner has
been formulated using a blend of surfactants to create a powerful
cleaner for all types of hard surface and floor cleaning.
Effective at removing the toughest oily and greasy soils, whilst being
safer for the environment than more aggressive cleaners, it has a pH of
7.5 and is safe for use on most surfaces, without the need for harsh
acids and alkalis.
It is available as a 5L Concentrate and 1L ready-to-use spray.
Another recent addition to the Prochem range, E309 Natural Stone Cleaner
is a concentrated professional-strength, water-based product for the
cleaning and maintenance of all fine natural stone floors including
marble, limestone, terrazzo, saltillo, granite, travertine, ceramic tile
and brick.
Containing specially selected surfactants and solvents it helps to
remove oil and soils from porous stone and with a gentle neutral pH is
particularly suitable for sensitive stone applications where acidic
stone cleaners (such as QMT Stoneclean) or harsh alkali chemicals, may
not be suitable.
It is available as a 5L concentrate and 1L ready-to-use spray.
