Product overview

A high-foaming cleaner for cargo holds, primarily for removal of coal, petroleum coke and associated oily residues. Foam application extends contact on vertical surfaces and makes coverage visible. For bulk-carrier hold cleaning before inspection or cargo changeover. Select dilution, contact time and rinsing by residue type and coating resistance. Use in cargo oil tanks or storage tanks only where expressly specified in the product TDS.

Typical applications

  • Coal and petroleum coke holds For bulk-carrier hold walls, frames and overhead surfaces after discharge; remove loose residues before applying foam.
  • Cargo changeover and inspection Combine foam application with thorough rinsing, drainage and inspection against the next cargo's cleanliness requirements.
  • Tank cleaning where specified For oily residues in tanks only after confirming the application, coating compatibility and cleaning method in the TDS.

Key benefits

  • Vertical-surface contact Foam helps retain the cleaning solution on hold walls; maintain wet contact for the prescribed treatment time.
  • Residue-specific cleaning Targets coal, petroleum coke and oily cargo residues within the approved application range.
  • Visible foam coverage Foam makes the treated area visible during application to large hold surfaces.

Application guidelines
