With GranaClean BIO, the company has developed a screw cleaner that is based entirely on biodegradable ingredients. It is intended in particular for plastics processors who process biodegradable plastics.

As with GranaClean UNI, care has been taken to ensure that all ingredients are food-safe in accordance with EU Directive (EU) No. 10/2011, do not have an abrasive effect on the machine surface and do not contain any hazardous substances for people or the environment. The cleaners have a chemical and mechanical effect and expand during cleaning...
