For years, many professionals have viewed acid as "the only way" to remove cement, scale, scale or rust. Its price per liter seems attractive... but in reality it is the most expensive cleaner on the market when the real total cost of ownership (TCO) is analyzed.
In Europe, the use of acids involves:
-
Mandatory PPE (chemical gloves, goggles, mask, special footwear)
-
regulated storage
-
ADR transport
-
risk of PRL inspections
-
progressive deterioration of metals and gaskets
-
repainting and recurrent maintenance
-
avoidable" occupational accidents
💰 In other words: cheap is expensive.
The SynTech® difference: smart chemistry with no hidden costs
SynTech® technology, patented in the USA and licensed in Europe through EMS Cleaning, offers something no acid can offer:
superior dissolving power WITHOUT corrosion, WITHOUT ADR and WITHOUT risk to the operator.
| FACTOR | ACIDS | SYNTECH |
|---|---|---|
| Real cost in the medium term | High (maintenance) | Under |
| Corrosion | Yes | No |
| ADR | Yes | No |
| Operator risk | High | Zero |
| Legalization / PRL | Mandatory | Not required |
| Surfaces | Progressive damage | Protection |
| Corporate image | "Aggressive product" | "Sustainable innovation" |
EU and sustainability - now also a competitive advantage
European regulations (especially ADR, REACH and PRL) are pushing companies towards safe, biodegradable and non-corrosive solutions.
SynTech® complies with:
✅ Triple Zero HMIS
✅ Non-corrosive
✅ Non-toxic
✅ Non-flammable
✅ Not regulated for transport or storage
✅ Meets European ESG standards.
It's not only safer: it 's more cost-effective.
Why are industrial customers in Europe already changing?
Because they have found that:
✔ No corrosion = less maintenance
✔ No ADR = less logistical costs
✔ No special PPE = fewer operational barriers
✔ Increased durability = real annual savings
✔ Faster cleanup = productivity
SynTech® does not compete on "price per liter".
. It competes on actual total cost.
And there... wins every time.
