pHlex CR
HIGH pH REPLACEMENT FOR CAUSTIC
Until now, the food industry has been forced to used dangerous acids and caustics for peeling, cleaning and pH adjustment. The pHlexaPeel line of products employs the most advanced developments in green technologies to replace those dangerous chemicals with safe yet potent replacements.
pHlexCR® has a pH of 13 and the ability to raise the pH of any liquid, clean and degrease with the potency of high pH cleaners, allowing you to replace these dangerous chemicals. pHlexCR® carries a triple-zero HMIS score, is non-toxic, non fuming, safe on skin, eyes and equipment. pHlexCR® can be blended with water safely with no exo-thermic reaction.
Because pHlexCR® contains no traditional hydroxides, it does not leave a residue of salts after a cleaning. And because pHlex CR® neutralizes with water, there is no need for a follow up acid wash.
pHlexCR® has no BODs and almost no CODs. pHlexCR® is 100% readily biodegradable in less than 10 days.
Like all pHlexaPeel products, pHlexCR® can be shipped common carrier and requires no secondary containment.
pHlexCR® boasts LC50 and LD50 scores well below regulated toxicity limits and many times less than caustics.
pHlexCR® is Kosher Pareve.
pHlexCR® is also available offering an even more powerful option of this safe cleaner.
The formula and its ingredients meet or exceed the EPA’s Safer Choice program requirements for both the safety of the environment and the user.
