The New Best Practice for Cleaning Operations
Ambimization® - Safe. Smart. Sustainable.
Solvent Cleaning
The Hidden Cost
The coatings industry is under pressure to balance tighter margins, stricter regulations, and sustainability demands. And here’s the reality: there’s a hidden cost of cleaning solvent use that silently drains profitability – by up to 15% – while posing risks to both people and the planet.
The use of traditional cleaning solvents is fundamentally incompatible with the requirements of an efficient, sustainable, and financially resilient operation.
It's time to reinvent core cleaning operations.
It’s time for a new industry best practice.

Ambimization®
Reinventing Cleaning
Ambimization® is a patented, industry-proven methodology that reinvents cleaning through a combination of advanced mechanical engineering and proprietary water-based chemistry.
Unmatched Advantages
The Benefits of Ambimization®
- Safety First: Water-based fluids are non-toxic, non-flammable, and non-carcinogenic, with low VOC levels. This makes them significantly safer for operators and the environment.
- Efficiency Automated: State-of-the-art machinery and flexible deployment methods reduce manual processes, delivering fast and effective cleaning that improves throughput.
- Quality Without Compromise: Handles even the toughest contaminants – cured epoxies, polyurethanes, and UV-curable resins – improving "right-first-time" rates and reducing the cost of rework.
- Environmental Impact: Self-cleaning properties enable fluid reuse of up to 50 times, resulting in 98.7% VOC reduction, 80.4% waste reduction, and 93.82% carbon savings.
- Cost Savings: Realise up to a 38.7% reduction in operating costs and significant labour savings, positively impacting margins and net profit.

Industry-Proven
How Ambimization® Works
Ambimization® is a patented, industry-proven technology that combines advanced mechanical engineering with proprietary water-based chemistry.
Different machines and methods of fluid deployment are used to maximise the penetration of the fluid into the contaminant.
Unlike solvents that dissolve contaminants, Ambimization® fluids lift residues from the substrate by altering surface tension. These residues naturally separate in the fluid, allowing for reuse of up to 50 cycles – dramatically reducing VOC emissions and waste.
Solutions for Coatings
What Ambimization® Cleans
Ambimization® effectively cleans a range of contaminants from fixed and movable vessels, metal IBCs/totes, small parts, and manufacturing tools, providing a comprehensive solution for coatings manufacturers.

The New Industry Best Practice
Ambimization® vs. The Alternatives
We know that solvents aren’t the only way to clean. However, many alternative solvent-free cleaning solutions fall short – compromising on safety, sustainability, or efficiency.
Read more about the limitations of common solvent alternatives like hot caustic baths, high-pressure water cleaning, low VOC solvents, and carbon offsetting. While these options may seem like progress, they come with significant drawbacks: unsafe working conditions, unsustainable waste output, and unaddressed root issues.
Ambimization® is the new industry best practice. By combining advanced engineering with proprietary chemistry, it offers unmatched safety, sustainability, and cleaning power – without compromise.
