Planisol-M: USDA Authorized for Food Processing Facilities

Planisol-M is a concentrated cleaner designed for industries where sanitation is critical, particularly food processing. Because it is USDA authorized for use in federally inspected meat and poultry facilities, it meets some of the most stringent safety and hygiene standards in the industry. It is biodegradable, non-toxic, and free from phosphates, enzymes, and harmful agents.



In practical terms, this means that Planisol-M can break down protein buildup, grease, and other organic residues without leaving behind dangerous residues. Its gentle yet powerful formula is safe for use on equipment and surfaces that must meet high sanitation requirements. For food processors, this offers peace of mind and the assurance of compliance with federal guidelines.

TASC Cleaners: Safe, Versatile, and Non-Toxic

Our TASC Cleaners represent years of research into aqueous-based cleaning technology. They are designed to be tough on dirt and grease but gentle on workers, equipment, and the environment. Unlike cleaners that rely on caustic agents or phosphates, TASC Cleaners provide effective degreasing power without introducing hazardous substances into your facility.



The versatility of TASC Cleaners makes them ideal for use in parts washers, maintenance areas, and general cleaning applications across industries. Because they are water-based and non-toxic, they reduce the risk of skin irritation, respiratory issues, and accidental exposure to harmful vapors. This not only improves worker safety but also reduces the administrative and compliance burdens associated with handling hazardous chemicals.

Citra-Blend: Harnessing the Power of Citrus

Citra-Blend is one of our most popular solutions because it combines effective degreasing with a natural, pleasant scent. It uses citrus-derived solvents that are biodegradable and non-flammable, making it a safer alternative to petroleum-based degreasers.



Citra-Blend excels at breaking down heavy grease, oil, and grime on a variety of surfaces, from shop floors to industrial machinery. Its water-soluble formula makes it easy to rinse away, leaving no harmful residues. The natural citrus base not only boosts cleaning performance but also improves the working environment by replacing harsh chemical odors with a clean, fresh smell.

The Benefits of Choosing Eco-Friendly Cleaners

Regulatory Compliance – Environmental regulations and workplace safety standards from OSHA and the EPA are becoming more stringent every year. By choosing biodegradable, non-toxic cleaners, businesses can reduce their compliance risks, avoid costly fines, and simplify reporting requirements. Products like Planisol-M, TASC Cleaners, and Citra-Blend are formulated with compliance in mind, making them a smart long-term choice.



Worker Safety – Harsh chemicals can cause burns, skin irritation, respiratory problems, and long-term health risks. Our products eliminate phosphates, caustics, and volatile solvents, significantly reducing these dangers. This not only protects employees but also reduces the risk of workplace accidents and associated costs.

Environmental Safety – Traditional cleaning chemicals can pollute waterways, harm wildlife, and contribute to poor air quality. Our biodegradable formulas break down naturally, minimizing environmental impact and supporting corporate sustainability goals. For companies seeking to meet ISO 14001 standards or similar certifications, switching to eco-friendly cleaners can be an important step.



Equipment Longevity – Aggressive solvents and caustics can corrode metal surfaces, damage seals, and shorten the life of expensive equipment. By using gentler yet effective formulas, you can extend equipment life, reduce maintenance costs, and improve operational efficiency.

The word “ biodegradable ” appears on many cleaning products, but it can be misunderstood. In industrial cleaning, the term generally refers to ingredients that can be broken down by microorganisms over time under suitable environmental conditions.  That does not automatically mean a product is harmless, safe for every surface, or appropriate to discharge anywhere. For facility managers, maintenance teams, manufacturers, and repair operations, biodegradable cleaning products should be evaluated based on both environmental considerations and actual cleaning performance.

Cleaning parts by hand may work when a shop only handles occasional repairs. As workload increases, however, manual cleaning can become slow, inconsistent, and difficult to manage.  A dedicated parts washer can help automotive shops, diesel repair facilities, machine shops, manufacturers, and maintenance departments handle contaminated components more efficiently. The right time to invest often comes down to volume, labor, contamination levels, consistency, and the types of parts being cleaned.

Industrial and commercial cleaning products have to do more than remove grease, grime, oils, and other difficult soils. Facility managers also need to consider how those products affect workers, indoor air quality, storage practices, environmental goals, and day-to-day operations.  One factor that often comes up during product selection is VOC content. VOCs, or volatile organic compounds, are chemicals that can evaporate into the air during product use. Understanding what they are and why they matter can help facilities make more informed decisions when selecting cleaners and degreasers.
