Technical Details & Test Data
- Complex and Balanced Composition
Perlac Tender is a complete product which includes a high concentration of surfactants and dispersing agents on top of its caustic base properties. This enhances its emulsifying and cleansing properties allowing it to fight even the most stubborn forms of fouling caused by food processing operations.
Its high level of sequestering and complexing agents allows it to maintain its proven high level of efficacy even when used with particularly hard water – tests show that the actions of the components making up the formula are not affected. Lastly, as it doesn’t foam, Perlac Tender can be safely used in CIP and circulation cleaning systems.
