BOXLAB machine cleaning clothNew in our ONLINE SHOP

The thorough cleaning of surfaces plays a decisive role in many branches of industry, such as vehicle construction, mechanical engineering or the metal industry. Surface preparation is also an important point that should not simply be ignored when labeling hazardous goods on containers or machines.

Kraftfahrzeugbau, Maschinenbau oder in der Metallindustrie spielt die gründliche Reinigung von Oberflächen eine entscheidende Rolle

In vielen Industriezweigen wie z.B. im Kraftfahrzeugbau, Maschinenbau oder in der Metallindustrie spielt die gründliche Reinigung von Oberflächen eine entscheidende Rolle.

That’s why our team is keen to offer our customers a comprehensive service solution. We have therefore looked into the possibilities of thoroughly preparing surfaces in order to attach placards for the long term. This is because placards and other hazardous goods labels in particular require a suitably clean surface in order to develop their certified adhesive properties. If a placard is stuck to dirt and dust, it will not have the necessary adhesive strength and will therefore detach from the surface. Apart from this, the placard loses its legal seawater resistance and therefore does not meet the requirements for hazardous goods markings.

Holistic cleaning process

High-quality cleaning agents and tools are required to ensure that surfaces are optimally prepared and that placards and markings adhere reliably. That is why we have added BOXLAB machine cleaning cloths to our BOXLAB BIO cleaner in our online store to ensure a comprehensive cleaning process. The bio-alcohol content of the cleaner removes stubborn adhesive residue, dust and dirt from surfaces. The robust material of the cleaning cloth makes it easy to wipe up the residue.

Product description machine cleaning cloth

This cloth is not just limited to pre-cleaning surfaces for applying labels, but is also suitable for a wide range of applications, such as removing engine oil or various other liquids.
Our high-quality and reusable cleaning cloths are made from a hard-wearing blend of cotton and polyester and have a cut size of approx. 400 x 400 mm. The interlinked sides prevent the cloth from fraying, thereby increasing its durability. The material is ideal for demanding cleaning work, e.g. for the surfaces of steel containers or for removing oil residues.

Implementation

In order to make the process for cleaning surfaces and attaching placards more efficient, we have developed a process which, by combining the BOXLAB machine cleaning cloth and the BOXLAB Bio-Cleaner, leads to an optimum result.

Proceed as follows:

Cleaning

Spray BOXLAB BIO Cleaner onto the surface from a distance of approx. 20 cm and wipe clean with the machine cleaning cloth.

Attach

Remove the top corner of the placard from the backing paper using our specially developed peel-off tab and align it. For stubborn cases, use our BOXLAB spray adhesive to achieve the desired degree of adhesion.

Squeegee

Apply the placard vertically from top to bottom using the squeegee to ensure bubble-free and secure adhesion.

Advantages

You can purchase the BOXLAB machine cleaning cloths in bundles of 50 in our online store. The cleaning cloth is not necessarily only intended for use to remove dirt, dust and stubborn adhesive residue, so you can use this product as you wish.

Ideal in combination with the BOXLAB BIO cleaner

For thorough and effective cleaning, we recommend using the BOXLAB machine cleaning cloth with the BOXLAB BIO cleaner. Pre-cleaning the surface is an important part of the process to achieve a long-lasting result. The BOXLAB BIO-Cleaner has a special powerful formula that removes impurities and evaporates quickly. This makes it possible to ensure prompt labeling.

To optimize your cleaning process and guarantee reliable adhesion of the marking, we recommend the combination of the BOXLAB BIO-Cleaner and the BOXLAB machine cleaning cloth.
