Stop guessing when your big capital outlay will generate ROI. Our full-service solutions are charged on a predictable, all-in-one monthly cost. This includes the parts washer machine, your cleaning chemistry, washer maintenance, training, documentation, and waste chemical disposal. No guesswork, no hidden costs, and no CapEx up front.
Our full-service solutions deliver immediate sustainability and cost improvements. Our machines use up to 57% less energy, 70% of our cleaning chemistries are aqueous and our low-temperature cleaning solution reduces energy, CO2 and cost. You’ll improve your Scope 2 carbonemissions, your environmental profile, and your running costs.
To keep production and maintenance moving, we guarantee at least 99% uptime from your parts washer. Regular expert maintenance is included in your monthly bill, so there’s less chance of unplanned stoppages and no hidden costs.
Our accreditations and approvals include:
ISO 14001 (environmental management)
ISO 45001 (health & safety)
REACH (chemical usage & disposal)
CLP Regulation (EC) 1272/2008Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC
Safetykleen solutions are part of a documented, repeatable process – including initial specification, training, traceability paperwork, and fully compliant waste disposal. This makes it easier to prove you meet buyer requirements and environmental regulations alike.

Unlike scrubbing and solvents, Safetykleen parts washers are not abrasive.
We deliver a pristine clean on hard-to-reach surfaces – without damaging the integrity of surfaces, details, or coatings of challenging parts like stator housings, optical sensors, and mechatronics.
Alongside fast, accurate process cleaning, your cleaning solution can improve maintenance and reliability of your production machines.
When uptime is critical, component cleaning is too important to be left to the human eye.
Your skilled technicians can spend up to 70% less time cleaning parts.
Fast, automated cleaning cycles let your team focus on other priorities.
Specialist maintenance of the parts washer itself is included in the price, so it’s never a bottleneck.
