Try Our New Ink Cleaner for Use in Auto Wash Systems

FlexoCleaners is excited to announce SircGreen, our new liquid cleaning solution! FlexoCleaners Tool Girl Madi Hart took time out of her busy touring schedule to answer questions about SircGreen in the Q&A below.

Why did FlexoCleaners develop SircGreen?
Solvent-based inks are among the most difficult inks to clean. Typically only nasty solvent-based cleaners can get the job done. Our customers have been asking for an eco-friendly cleaner that works on solvent inks and is suitable for use in auto wash systems. FlexoCleaners, using a breakthrough surfactant technology, has developed a new liquid cleaner that works great, and is specially formulated for use in machines.

What kind of inks does SircGreen clean?

Solvents inks, as well as stubborn UV and water-based inks.

What is SircGreen designed to clean?
Anilox rolls, plates & parts.

What makes SircGreen a “green” cleaner?
SircGreen is a water-based formula – so it is free of solvents. The formula has a neutral pH of 7 and zero VOCs. The surfactant technology behind SircGreen is derived from plants, how’s that for green?

Yeah, but does it work?
We have been testing SircGreen at printing plants for the past six months with incredible results! It's effective and it works fast. In fact, some customers using SircGreen have reduced cycle run times from 20 minutes to just 5 minutes. SircGreen also has a long working life cycle in machine tanks.

Can SircGreen be diluted?
Yes, SircGreen can be diluted up to 3-1 (3 parts water to 1 part SircGreen). This makes SircGreen a cost-effective solution for use in machines such as anilox roll cleaning units and ultrasonic tanks.
