Case Studies

In their Canadian headquarters, which focuses on R&D and engineering, the manufacturer uses a substantial amount of stamping oils and other industrial lubricants in their daily operations. Oil mist, leaks, and spills are difficult to clean, and must be done regularly to protect the health and safety of employees and maintain the environment of the facility.

The manufacturer’s previous citrus-based cleaner performed adequately but was only effective at high concentrations, contributing to higher cleaner costs.

The manufacturer agreed to trial Master STAGES™ Task2™ GF, a powerful, non-butyl, water-based cleaner designed to fight tough grime in industrial, commercial, and office environments. Though the formula has a low VOC content, it has proven to be high-performing enough to achieve the stringent Pratt & Whitney Aerospace Approval PMC 1247-1. Additionally, it’s environmentally friendly and certified as "Readily Biodegradable" by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). It’s specially formulated to work in conjunction with TRIM^® metalworking fluids.

Task2 GF costs $550 less per drum than the manufacturer’s previous cleaner, reducing spend by 34 percent. In spite of the lower price, the Master Fluid Solutions^® cleaner performed more effectively than the manufacturer’s previous citrus solution, greatly decreasing the amount of solution needed on a daily basis, translating to additional savings. The manufacturer is currently assessing how to implement Master Fluid Solutions’ cleaning products at their other facilities worldwide.
