Formulation No. 7/BC-721

Printing houses still using to remove old ink deposit solvent based products with a very bad health and safety profile. This products mainly based on aromatic solvents (MOAH) and are flammable with a very high content of VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds). This was in the past the only way to remove old ink deposit in the pressroom. It’s no need to use dangerous solvents anymore.

INK EATER (formulation no.), 100 % based on the latest Biochemical Technology with an excellent health and safety profile and “stronger cleaning power” like any aromatic solvent based product is now available.

Technical Information

• Very powerful ink remover, stronger like any other aromatic solvent based cleaner
• Water mixable
• No odour
• Excellent health and safety profile
• Corrosion inhibited
• Minimum 50 % less consumption, very effective
• biodegradable
• MOSH (Mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons) free
• MOAH (Mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbon) free
• VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) free
• Not flammable
• No Health, Physical or Environmental Hazard (No Hazard Labelling)
• Neutral pH value
• Safer place of work for employees

Application
Apply INK EATER directly to a (light wet) suitable cloth and clean affected area. Should not applied to printing plates and/or painted surfaces!

(Formulation No. 2/FSA-210)

Clean the fountain solution circulation system and remove all bacteria, yeast, moulds and residue from paper and ink. Even in case of optimum filtration, bacteria, ink and paper dust will be still in the system. This will lead to substantial trouble in the printing process. Mainly with IPA free/reduced printing is highly recommended to clean the fountain solution circulation system one time per month.

Technical Information

• Water based cleaning concentrate for dampening systems (fountain solution circulation systems)
• Very strong cleaning power with immediate effect
• Removes bacteria, yeast, moulds and other contamination
• Dissolve all residues from paper and ink
• Biocide free
• Better cleaning results as conventional cleaners for this application
• Prevents build up of slime and residues in lines and pumps
• Micro active cleaning technology
• Can be used on Sheetfed, Cold- and Heat set presses
• Corrosion inhibited
• World’s First Biocide free cleaner for this application!
• Very cost effective

Recommended dosage: 1+3 to 1+6 with water, depending on the degree of soiling

Application
In order to achieve optimum cleaning effect contact time to affected are (lines and pumps) of at least 2-3 hours is recommended. To prevent blockages, inspection of filters and overflows is advisable.
In coldest presses, turbo and spray dampening units are to be closed. Once the used cleaning solution drained, the dampening system must be flushed with clear water until the water runs clear and all residues are removed.

Sustainability and the Environment
Over recent decades the issue of corporate responsibility in relation to the environmental impact of industry on our planet and its eco-system have come to the fore and there has been a shift in attitudes. The world has moved into an era where every person and business is now eco-aware and conscious of their own carbon footprint. Great value is placed on this both in moral and monetary terms.

Businesses all over the world are benefiting from introducing new ways of being environmental friendly as it reduces their costs of production and waste management; provides a safer place of work for employees and greatly benefits their company image as they operate under sustainable and environmental friendly practises.

Health and Safety
All solvents, natural or synthetic are toxic ! There are no safe solvents on the market ! Contact either with liquid solvents or inhalation of vapours the emit into the air are hazardous. In general, solvents can irritate and damage the skin, eyes and respiratory tract, cause a narcotic effect on the nervous system and damage internal organs such us liver and kidneys. The kind of damage can be acute (from single heavy expose) or chronic (from repeated low dose exposures over month or years). In addition, some solvents are especially hazardous to specific organs or can cause specific diseases such as cancer.

All washing agents and fountain solutions containing Butyl Glycol will be removed from the product approval list of all press manufacturer like Manroland, Heidelberg, KBA , Baldwin and Fogra, irrespective of the date the agent’s approval expires. The same situation is with ISEGA (Food packaging approval), all products containing Butyl Glycol will removed from the approval list.

If you need any help to replace Butyl Glycol in your product formulations, please contact us.
