Due to emerging regulations on PFAS (per-and polyfluoroalkyl substance) manufacturing, 3M will cease manufacturing fluoropolymers, fluorinated fluids, and PFAS-based additive products by the end of 2025, which includes popular Novec variants like 7100, 71DE, 7200, 72DE, 72DA, and 73DE. MicroCare is stepping up to offer outstanding alternatives. These replacement fluids deliver superior performance in removing various soils encountered during manufacturing processes, including oil, grease, particulate, inks, and fingerprints while prioritizing sustainability.
Among the company’s portfolio highlights are the Tergo HDF (Heavy Duty Fluid) and Tergo GCF (General Cleaning Fluid). Both solutions have low GWP (Global Warming Potential) and zero ODP (Ozone Depleting Potential) ratings, ensuring compliance with strict environmental regulations. Additionally, their azeotropic properties make them chemically stable and nonflammable in vacuum and vapour degreasers, providing a reliable and safe cleaning process. These fluids are the perfect replacement for products under scrutiny or being discontinued.
“Productronica presents an exceptional platform for us to engage directly with industry professionals, enabling us to showcase our cutting-edge cleaning fluids and tools,” said Scott Wells, General Manager, MicroCare UK.
