Industrial Cleaners

The clean step before sanitizer does its job.

Heavy-duty cleaners for the clean step of clean/rinse/sanitize. Degreasers, alkaline cleaners, and acid cleaners formulated to handle the soil your sanitizer can't.

  • Clean step of C/R/S protocol
  • Alkaline + acid + degreaser lineup
  • Pairs with Alpet D2 + PAA programs

Already running D2 sanitizer? Cleaners handle the clean step before sanitize.

Industrial cleaner products
Sanitizer alone doesn't clean

EPA-registered sanitizers are validated on pre-cleaned surfaces. Without the clean step, sanitizer efficacy drops and documentation gets questioned.

Matched to the soil

Protein soils (meat, dairy), fat soils (kitchens), mineral soils (scale, beverage) all need different chemistry. We help you match product to soil.

Compatible with sanitizer program

D2 cleaners are selected to rinse cleanly away from Alpet D2 and PAA products — no chemistry conflicts in your clean/rinse/sanitize sequence.

Bulk + concentrate ready

Concentrates and bulk formats for facilities running dilution systems. Ask about pallet quantities and volume pricing.

Clean/rinse/sanitize only works when every step works.

Your sanitizer depends on a clean surface. Your audit depends on a rinse that actually removes the cleaner.

The clean step fails

A sanitizer applied to a surface that wasn't properly cleaned doesn't hit its validated kill rate. The whole sequence collapses.

The cleaner step has to match the soil — and has to rinse cleanly before sanitizer goes down.

Worker safety

Industrial cleaners are generally more aggressive than sanitizers. SDS review, PPE, and proper training are non-negotiable.

D2 provides SDS and handling guidance with every cleaner product, built to support your safety program.

Rinse water + compliance

Cleaner residues + rinse water both need to be accounted for in your environmental and wastewater plans.

Choosing cleaners that break down appropriately simplifies discharge permits and audit conversations.

Where D2 cleaners fit

CIP, kitchens, facility floors, and anywhere soil has to leave before sanitation starts.

Food processing CIP

Alkaline cleans + acid cleans on a rotating CIP schedule.

Commercial kitchens

Floor degreasers, hood cleaners, equipment deep-cleans.

Manufacturing

Equipment housings, shop floors, tool stations, shift-end resets.

Beverage + dairy

Tank cleans, line degreasing, pasteurizer maintenance.

Facility deep cleans

Quarterly resets, seasonal overhauls, new-location turnovers.

Industrial Cleaners FAQs

Questions from food-safety, compliance, and operations teams.

How does ZeroPoint fit into a HACCP or SQF sanitation program?

ZeroPoint is an EPA-registered sanitizing solution, so it slots into the sanitation step of a HACCP plan or SQF program as a documented, registered product. Keep the EPA label and SDS on file for audits, and record contact times and dilution rates as part of your sanitation SOPs. Its one-step protocol simplifies the documentation burden compared to multi-product workflows.

Is ZeroPoint safe for food-contact surfaces?

Yes. ZeroPoint is formulated for use on food-contact surfaces in commercial food processing operations. Always follow the directions and contact times on the EPA-registered label for your specific application. It is surface-compatible with concrete, stainless steel, plastic, and processing equipment.

What is ZeroPoint used for in a food processing facility?

ZeroPoint is an EPA-registered industrial biosecurity protocol built for food production and food processing environments. Facilities use it to reset contamination risk between production cycles across food-contact zones, equipment, drains, and processing surfaces. It is designed for the audit-sensitive reality of meat, poultry, dairy, and produce operations where sanitation has to hold up to inspection.

What sizes does ZeroPoint come in for facility-scale use?

ZeroPoint is available in 1-gallon and 2.5-gallon containers, plus case quantities (4 x 1 gallon and 2 x 2.5 gallon) for facility-scale and multi-site operations. ZeroPoint dilutes economically, so case quantities are the typical choice for ongoing food-processing sanitation programs.
