Representative industrial soils
Build controlled challenges using defined oils, greases, particulates, carbonaceous residues, or customer-supplied soils on relevant substrates.
Industrial Cleaning
Industrial Degreaser Performance Testing
Tandell designs industrial degreasing studies around the soil, substrate, application method, concentration, dwell time, temperature, mechanical action, and rinse conditions that determine field performance.

What we evaluate
Controlled variables. Relevant outcomes.
The final design is selected around your product format, use conditions, competitive set, target claim, and required level of control.
- Oil, grease, particulate, and mixed-soil removal
- Concentration, temperature, dwell-time, and agitation effects
- Rinseability, residue, filming, and redeposition
- Compatibility with metals, plastics, elastomers, and finished surfaces

Specialized programs
Go beyond a single cleaning score.
Process-variable studies
Quantify how concentration, temperature, dwell time, agitation, spray pressure, wipe mechanics, or rinse conditions affect performance.
Performance with compatibility
Connect soil removal with residue, appearance, corrosion, stress cracking, or other surface and component risks where appropriate.
Related expertise
Connect application testing with measurement.
Surface tension, contact angle, foam structure, microscopy, colour, gloss, rheology, and controlled separation analysis can help explain why products perform differently.
