Cleaner uses biochemistry to remove oil stains from hard surfaces

Cortec Corp. has developed MCI-2061, an environmentally friendly cleaner designed to remove oil stains from concrete, asphalt, and other hard surfaces such as fixtures and equipment without harsh chemicals or solvents.

The cleaner comprises biodegradable surfactants that loosen and disperse hydrocarbons, as well as microbes that populate the substrate and provide residual deep cleaning action as they chase the oil stain through the pores.

The product degrades a variety of hydrocarbons including gasoline, diesel, crude oil, benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylene without corroding or damaging floors.
