Ecolab Advantis FC Cleaning Program

Ecolab’s Advantis FC Cleaning Program is a high-foaming, chlorinated alkaline cleaner formulated for use with reduced-temperature water. It provides food and protein processing facilities with good cleaning performance against protein and fat soils on stainless steel processing equipment and plant environmental surfaces.

Previous processes required sanitation water to be heated to temperatures as high as 62°C; Advantis FC effectively cleans protein and fat soils at temperatures as low as 40 to 43°C. The program may improve cleaning performance in plants that cannot achieve or maintain high water temperatures throughout the sanitation shift.

According to the company, the program decreases water-heating costs and the refrigeration costs necessary to return production areas back to the appropriate temperatures. The company claims the product reduces the overall downtime for the sanitation shift and may save users up to one hour per day of cleaning time.

The program may improve employee safety conditions by reducing poor visibility due to condensation and reducing the potential for scalding injuries.
