Description

Padex is an industrial degreaser paste designed specifically for pre-treating work garments and textiles with high levels of greasy soil. Its formulation combines anionic and non-ionic surfactants that work synergistically: anionic surfactants remove and keep fats, oils and lubricants in suspension that are adhered to fibres, while non-ionic surfactants improve fibre wetting facilitating uniform water penetration. The result is pre-emulsification before the main cycle.

Padex is a product formulated and manufactured by Detervic / Instaquim, with technical support and documentation available for professional customers and authorized distributors.

Benefits for professional use

  • Deep emulsification — disperses oils, fats and oily residues before the main cycle.
  • Synergistic action of two surfactant families — the combination of anionic and non-ionic surfactants gives great wetting and emulsifying power.
  • Reinforces detergent action — reinforces the action of detergents in the washing process.

Main applications

  • Pre-treatment in industrial laundries: direct application to areas with intensive greasy soil or incorporation in the pre-wash cycle for garments with mineral oils, gear lubricants and process residues in industrial and automotive facilities.
  • Machinery work clothing: uniforms, overalls and garments of workers exposed to mineral oils, gear fats and process residues in industrial and automotive installations.
  • HoReCa and catering: pre-treatment of kitchen uniforms, aprons and table linens with food grease and cooking oil stains before the wash cycle.
  • Food industry: work garments with process fats and oils requiring an effective pre-treatment degreaser compatible with intensive-use fabrics.
  • Service companies and facility management: reinforcement of detergent action in work clothing fleets.

Recommended sectors

  • HoReCa — pre-treatment of kitchen uniforms, aprons and table linens with food grease.
  • Industry and machinery — treatment of garments with mineral oils, lubricants and process fats; specialized solution as industrial degreaser paste for production and maintenance workers.
  • Service companies and facility management — efficient management of work clothing fleets.
  • Food industry — pre-treatment of work garments with process fats and oils in facilities with high-volume operational requirements.

Indicative instructions for use

01
Identify areas of greatest greasy soil on the garment before placing it in the industrial washer.
02
Apply Padex directly to grease, oil or adhered soil stains, distributing the paste uniformly over the affected area.
03
Allow the surfactants to act on the oily residues before the main cycle.
04
Place the pre-treated garment in the industrial washer and run the standard washing programme with main detergent.
05
Adjust main detergent dosage according to the degree of residual soil after pre-treatment with Padex.

Specific doses and recommendations are available in the product technical datasheet.
