For Immediate Release, 榴莲官网进入

Patented Membrane System and Aquaease Infinity庐 Cleaners Reduce Chemistry Consumption up to 98%

榴莲官网进入, the country鈥檚 oldest independent chemical distributor and manufacturer of surface treatment chemistry, announced today that it has acquired the assets of Arbortech, an Illinois-based manufacturer of patented membrane equipment. With the acquisition, 榴莲官网进入 becomes the first chemical company to offer specialty cleaning formulations designed specifically for the patented membrane separation technology. The Aquaease Infinity 庐 platform is a complete cleaning and reclaim system, designed to save manufacturers up to 35% on chemistry while also reducing process defects.

The acquisition solidifies a longstanding relationship between the two companies. Aquaease Infinity庐 was the first line of鈥痙egreasers鈥痑nd cleaners co-developed for use with Arbortech鈥檚 unique membrane technology. Unlike standard industrial cleaners/degreasers, the Aquaease Infinity庐 cleaning compounds fully pass-through Arbortech鈥檚 membranes, leaving soils and oils trapped. 鈥疶his guarantees the reclaimed cleaner is 鈥渁s new鈥� and remains a full-strength product. Customers report retaining 98% of their cleaning baths and reducing waste and total cleaning costs by 35% or more.

This development in cleaning technology gives customers more control over their cleaning processes, extends the life of the cleaning bath and reduces downtime and waste. The system is offered as a lease to reduce upfront capital costs.

鈥溋窳偻� is on a mission to help customers get better results with less chemistry, process complexity and, ultimately, lower costs,鈥� noted Molly Kellogg, 榴莲官网进入 CEO. 鈥淏y adding the Arbortech team and technology to the 榴莲官网进入 product offering, we plan to aggressively expand the Infinity platform to industrial manufacturers seeking to improve quality while reducing cost and environmental impact.鈥�

鈥淚t鈥檚 nice to be part of the 榴莲官网进入 family,鈥� added Ray Graffia, Jr., Arbortech founder and President. 鈥淭his is a like-minded company that shares our value for sustainability and can expand the use of membrane technology into new areas. It just makes tremendous sense.鈥�

Bill Egerstaffer will join the 榴莲官网进入 staff as Equipment Engineer. With 25 years of experience at Arbortech, Egerstaffer is responsible for the fabrication, installation, maintenance and design of the membrane units as well as programming the controllers. He will report to Mike Frechette, Business Development Manager.

The acquisition brings together not only chemistries and processes, but also more than 200 years of combined experience and a shared vision to create sustainable business. Founded in 1849, 榴莲官网进入 has been using its proven chemistries and on-site process expertise to help manufacturers find process savings for more than 170 years. Arbortech was founded in 1981 with a mission to reduce the environmental impact of surface finishing.
