Highly effective for removing grease and protein from surfaces through CIP recirculation, spraying, or immersion. Formulated with wetting and dispersing agents that enhance its performance. Applications: cleaning of silos, pasteurization, cooling, and storage systems in the food industry, as well as dairy production and cleaning of pipes and tanks. Properties: pH 13.0–15.0 (1% solution), density 1.20–1.30 g/cm³, high solubility. Certifications: NSF, Kosher, SAGARPA. Also known as chlorinated alkaline degreaser or chlorinated alkaline cleaner. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.

Lactac is a concentrated and stable acid detergent, formulated to remove scale, fats, and proteins from equipment in the food industry. It acts through denaturation-precipitation and keeps organic matter in suspension for easier removal. Ideal for cleaning in the sausage and processed meat industry, it leaves a temporary protective layer against oxidation and does not release toxic vapors during handling. Highly biodegradable, it can be used in plants with biological wastewater treatment systems. Properties: pH (1% sol.) 1.0–3.0, acidity 25.0–30.0%, density 1.25–1.30 g/cm³, medium foam, slightly amber color. Certifications: NSF and SAGARPA. Also known as: acid degreaser, acid soap, acid cleaning solution, acid cleaner. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.

Lactac LF is a concentrated acid detergent, with 25.0–30.0% acidity, designed to remove mineral scale and organic residues in the food industry. It has a colorless liquid appearance, pH between 1.0–3.0 (at 1%), and is especially applied in CIP systems. Its action denatures and precipitates fats and proteins, while its surfactants suspend residues to prevent redeposition. Leaves a temporary protective layer against oxidation. Suitable for cleaning pasteurizers, tanks, pipes, molds, and surfaces in meat plants and more. It has low foam, is highly biodegradable, and stable during storage. Density between 1.25–1.30 g/cm³, with no release of toxic vapors. Complies with SAGARPA Q-7498-003 and is NSF certified. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.
