Sustainable Cleaning for Automotive Manufacturing
Traditionally, automotive parts cleaning relied on manual solvent wiping and large aqueous-based washer systems. Manual wiping is inconsistent, labor-intensive, and poses health risks. While washer systems involve high investment and operating costs due to the need for reverse osmosis, heating, and drying equipment. Washers also require significant factory space and contribute to a larger carbon footprint due to their extensive water, gas, and electricity usage. In contrast, CO2 cleaning offers a more efficient and environmentally friendly solution.
