National Sanitisation Foundation (NSF) Accreditations

NSF is a global organisation that tests products to ensure they meet specific health and safety standards. NSF accreditations are the gold-standard for MRO suppliers, and typically indicate that a product is compatible within food processing and food service industries.

We offer a number of NSF accredited and certified degreasers, that can be used to remove food based grease and used in general cleaning within the food industry.

Are industrial degreasers safe?

At NCH, we don’t believe in compromise between safety or functionality.

Many of our degreasers are developed with user safety and performance in mind; they are EDTA free and have low VOC’s. They range from water based, NSF approved solutions in our Aqua-Sol range through to solvent based formulations for degreasing electronic equipment where fast evaporation is required or immersion applications where solvent based chemicals are the best options.
