Caustic Cleaners

Caustic cleaners are corrosive solutions for the toughest of cleaning needs
By Heather Southall Homes and restaurants alike often experience issues with dirty ovens and clogged drains that can be solved with a caustic cleaner. When the grease is especially thick or the clog is particularly troublesome, performing a caustic clean may be the solution. These corrosive substances are designed to eat through the nastiest of grime and sludge.

Specialized caustic cleaners can be used to tackle both of these problems. For kitchen maintenance and plumbing, these things should be considered:

1. Gather information and caustic cleaning products from chemical companies,

2. Find an industrial-strength caustic oven cleaner at restaurant supply companies, and

3. Consider caustic soda cleaning to take care of the most stubborn drain problems.

Find a caustic cleaner manufacturer in various chemical companies

Industrial chemical companies are a good place to look when looking for corrosive cleaning substances. Caustic cleaners fall under this category. Responsible chemical companies will even provide buyers with relevant safety and storage information.
Try:  Thatcher Chemical is one of the largest chemical distributors in the country. Here, a buyer can find any number of caustic cleaners: foaming, liquid or chlorinated. Spurrier Chemical Companies offer a variation of industrial strength caustic cleaning products. They specialize in corrosive and non-corrosive cleaners for grills and ovens.

Purchase a caustic oven cleaner from restaurant supply companies

Restaurant supply companies normally carry kitchen maintenance supplies in their inventories. As restaurant ovens experience great amounts of wear and tear, the caustic oven cleaners provided are sure to conquer the harshest of problems from caked-on grease to carbon deposits.
Try:  Namco Manufacturing is a company which specializes in janitorial supplies and chemical cleansers. Their high-alkaline liquid caustic oven cleaner is designed to get the job done with a small amount of product. They also offer a jelled cleaner to eliminate scraping. Caustic cleansers can also be found at Interstate Products. Their kitchen maintenance selection has a variety of liquid and gel caustic oven cleaners as well as caustic cleaners for cleaning grout and tile.

Use caustic drain cleaners for the toughest of situations

Sometimes it takes more than a liquid store bought solution to handle clogged drains. One of the toughest drain-cleaning weapons comes in the form of sodium hydroxide granules, also known as caustic soda. Caustic soda cleaning can take care of the toughest situations.
Try:  Roebic Laboratories, the self-proclaimed "plumbing doctors," have a variety of caustic cleaners for eradicating stubborn drain clogs. Among the products is a dry solution with 100% sodium hydroxide. This caustic soda cleaning is designed for heavy-duty clogs. The Instawares Restaurant Supply Superstore has a large selection of industrial-strength drain cleaners, including a dry formula caustic drain cleaner.

• Applying a caustic cleanser to ovens or drains will certainly give the desired results. However, these highly corrosive chemicals should be stored and handled with the utmost care. Never handle these products without the proper safety attire.
