It is the duty of the industrial hygienist to anticipate, recognize, evaluate, communicate, and control environmental hazards that stem from several workplace toxicity releasers that could potentially hurt, harm, injure, impair, or seriously negatively affect the workforce. An industrial hygienist is expected to find, analyze, and deconstruct – if need be – any toxin that could lead to 
dangerous conditions for workers. The roles of industrial hygienists have been put under a microscope due to the more strict regulations set forth by government regulatory committees, as the United States has seen a strong push by both its citizens and their representatives to make sure people, along with the environment, are protected by the ignorance, incompetence, or even more frightening, the apathy of industrial businesses and their possible use of hazardous cleaners, liquids, gases, and materials. With advancements and alternatives designed and now made available to replace harmful agents used by industrial companies, there is no reason why any organization should be using harmful chemicals to clean or treat parts, metals, or materials. This is why industrial hygienists mandate strict enforcement on the rules and regulations set forth pertaining to the penalties for using harmful chemicals and materials.
As mentioned above, there is really no reason why industrial corporations cannot make an easy transition to an eco friendly, green alternative cleaner or degreasing product that cleans and degreases as well, if not better than the previous solution. It is merely a matter of finding a low VOC (volatile organic compound) cleaner an industrial hygienist can endorse. Thankfully, there are companies out there, such as Ecolink, whose sole purpose is to research, find, and create eco friendly and green alternative solvents that have a low VOC to which industrial businesses can transition, and an industrial hygienist can approve.
Ecolink has evaluated most industrial solutions and can notify industrial businesses that use cleaning agents whether the chemicals their company is using are harmful to their workforce and to the environment. Ecolink has also found success developing alternative solutions that boast very low VOC agents, and are considered harmless to both people and to the environment, even with extended use.
Because of how serious the repercussions are for using high VOC cleaners, as well as the penalties set forth by industrial hygienists and federal regulatory committees, it is recommended that you contact Ecolink, and discuss with them the type of cleaning and degreasing solvent you are using, and they can tell you whether it is a high or low VOC cleaner. If your chemical solution happens to be a high VOC cleaner, no need to worry, as Ecolink will decipher the best alternative solution to the solvent you are using. Ecolink promises that the new, low VOC cleaner will be eco friendly, and will clean as well as, or even better than your previous brand. It will also be a low VOC cleaner an industrial hygienist can endorse.
Balancing Industrial Cleaning Requirements with Worker Safety
/in Ecolink News/by Industrial DegreasersCompany owners are responsible for the well being of their employees, and should implement safety procedures and protocol to maintain the safety of those workers while performing their duties. You probably would not find a business owner who would disagree with that statement. Having said that, the degree of danger workers place themselves in at the work place varies greatly, depending on the type of industry for which they are employed. As it pertains to industrial jobs – working with parts, metals, materials, and other industrial and mechanical products – there might not be another career where the calculated risk performing duties is greater. Most business decision makers stress over the physical requirements of a job site, or the heavy machinery and products that, if handled incorrectly, could cause serious harm or injury to an employee. However, at most of the job sites where parts, metals, and materials come through on a regular basis, these products need to be cleaned before being put into operation. This means workers will be handling industrial cleaners to rid these products of dirt, grime, stains, grease, rust, and other particles that could negatively affect a product’s functionality. Business owners need to realize that, if they have not switched to an eco friendly or green alternative industrial cleaning solvent, there is a chance of a mitigation of worker safety.
Older industrial cleaning products use ingredients and chemical agents that can negatively affect people using the chemical, even those within close proximity to the chemical cleaning solution. These hazardous agents can even hurt the environment. However,
even with this in mind, company owners might be hesitant to make the transition to a new cleaning solution because of the reliability of the current solvent. The key for business owners what need to maintain the quality of worker safety, but still incorporate the use of a trustworthy industrial cleaning solvent need to find a method of balancing their industrial cleaning requirements with worker safety. That is why it is imperative for these owners to become more educated on new, solvent degreasing, eco friendly cleaners and degreasers that can clean and degrease as well as older solutions, and also provide a much higher level of worker safety those older solutions cannot provide. The best way to educate owners is through the interaction of organizations whose purpose is to inform and redirect industrial businesses that use cleaning solvents to transition to green alternative chemical agents. One company that can lend assistance is Ecolink.
Ecolink has been providing vast knowledge to industrial companies for a long time, providing statistics on chemical compounds that are hazardous and unsafe for people and the environment, while at the same time providing eco friendly alternatives that have proven to clean and degrease products without any drop off in efficiency whatsoever. It is recommended to any industrial organization that has not already made a switch to newer and safer cleaning agents to consult with Ecolink, so your business can effectively balance industrial cleaning requirements with worker safety, while at the same time lowering your cost of purchasing industrial cleaning solutions.
Is your Company Using the Best Industrial Cleaners?
/in Industrial Cleaning Solutions, Industrial Degreasers/by Industrial Degreasers“If it is not broke, do not fix it.” It is likely that at some point in your life, you have heard this ubiquitous quote in some manner. Regarding the industrial cleaning industry, this quote is quite true to point. The fact of the matter is most industrial businesses that use industrial cleaners to clean and degrease parts, metals, and materials or dirt, stains, rust, grime, oil, and other harmful particles have been using the exact same industrial cleaner for years, perhaps even decades. The problem with this is there have been a lot of changes, pertaining to advancements in chemical products and the law regarding what chemicals can be used to clean parts because of the health risks associated with the compound solvent. It is easy to understand why industrial businesses have not made the switch to a new industrial cleaner when the one they have been using for a long time, in their opinion, works fine. However, if these industrial companies were to conduct research into the subject, they would find that newer, stronger, safer, and less costly industrial cleaners are now available.
Now, your industrial company must ask itself the following question: is our company using the best industrial cleaner on the market? If your company has been using the same chemical cleaning solution for the last five years or longer, then the answer to the posed question is most likely no. Why? Significant advances have been made to industrial cleaners that render older model industrial solvents obsolete.
Most importantly, scientific research has found that older industrial cleaning solutions are filled with toxic chemicals and hazardous agents that could cause serious ramifications and dire long term effects to those who are in constant contact or even close proximity to these solvents. In addition, the hazardous cleaning agents hurt the environment. Today, there are eco friendly and green alternative solutions available that not only eliminate potential injury to people and to the environment, but also can clean and degrease better than older industrial cleaners.
Secondly, industrial companies are riddled with expensive liabilities and overhead that eat away at a business’ cash flow. Newer, cleaner industrial solvents are developed with chemical compounds that are safer and cheaper than older industrial chemical solutions. This means the cost of using these newer degreasing models is significantly less than what your company was paying for your current brand.
Safer industrial cleaning ingredients that are more effective and cheaper sounds too good to be true, but it is the truth. Ecolink – a company that has been pushing the eco friendly, green alternative movement for a safer and more efficient industrial cleaner for quite some time – can further explain the benefits to these newer industrial solutions, and will help you make the transition to these improved solvents. With the help of Ecolink, your company will soon be using the best industrial cleaner available today.
Cut Cleaning Costs with Eco Friendly Industrial Cleaners
/in Eco Friendly, Industrial Cleaning Solutions/by Industrial DegreasersIf you are a part of an industrial organization that has to rely on industrial cleaners to rid your parts, metals, and materials, of dirt, stains, rust, grease, and other types of harmful chemicals, you are probably sick of the exorbitant costs of having to refill your stock
ever so frequently. The problem is that industrial businesses really do not have a choice in the matter because cleaning industrial products is absolutely mandatory for the product to operate and function at one hundred percent capacity. Because industrial cleaners are an integral piece to the industrial cleaning puzzle, yet they are so expensive to use, this dilemma leaves industrial companies feeling that their hands are tied. Luckily, with the recent explosion in the discovery and utilization of eco friendly industrial cleaners, industrial manufacturers and businesses are now able to cut cleaning costs because the eco friendly ingredients that make up the latest industrial cleaners are less expensive.
Hold on, says the disbelieving executive at the industrial complex. How can that possibly be? Usually, when a new product that comes out to replace an old product, and the new product is cheaper, the conclusion that often comes up is that the new product must not be as effective as the old product, or the ingredients and composition of the new product is not as good or solid as the old product. It is completely understandable to feel this way, as sometimes that is the case. Fortunately, as it pertains to industrial cleaners, the chemical compounds used to create older solvents that were hazardous to people and to the environment were actually more expensive than the ingredients that go into designing eco friendly industrial cleaners.
The above mentioned notion is clearly a win-win for industrial organizations, as eco friendly industrial cleaners solves two looming problems: 1. Your business can now cut cleaning costs significantly, because the solution used for green alternative cleaners and degreasers is less expensive; and 2. Your industrial business can now transition to a safe alternative that does not pose the threat of long term negative side effects to your work force, and does not harm the environment in any way. Today, there is no reason for industrial companies that are still using older industrial cleaners to continue forth with the same hazardous chemical cleaning components, especially when eco friendly industrial cleaners have been tested and proven to clean just as effectively.
If you want to learn more about how your industrial business can cut cleaning costs with eco friendly industrial cleaners, you should contact a company called Ecolink. Ecolink is one of the earliest pioneers of developing new industrial cleaners with green alternative solutions that also allow companies to cut cleaning costs for the short and long term. An Ecolink professional will help you make a seamless transition to these new eco friendly solutions so your industrial business can start cutting cleaning costs right away.
