Innovate or Stagnate: Terrafend talks to Cleantech Group

Written by Rachel Dennis | July 2024

We were pleased this week to share a conversation between our CEO Ben Reid and Cleantech Groups’ Buff Lopez about the need for innovation in cleaning in manufacturing.

The article outlines one of the main problems:

‘Among other issues, the typical industrial cleaning chemicals pose environmental hazards, safety concerns, and disposal risks. In addition, these practices are relatively resource intensive. As much as 40%-70% of a facility’s total water usage can be attributed to cleaning, in both commercial and industrial settings (UNL Engineering).’

We spoke to Buff about the key players who could benefit from changes to their cleaning processes, as well as the results of our Life Cycle Analyses and the impressive results we’ve generated. Ambimization® is safer, faster and more effective than cleaning with solvents or their alternatives.

Customers like AkzoNobel, Sherwin-Williams, Jaguar Land Rover and Toyota are seeing reductions in their VOCs, CO₂ emissions and waste production. Meaning they can improve the safety onsite as well as meeting their sustainability goals.

CEO Ben Reid said, “It was great to speak to someone with such a deep knowledge of cleantech and who immediately understood the importance and relevance of Ambimization® in cleaning up manufacturing.”
