Material Processing Plant Cleaning Services

Removal of dirt, dust and contaminants from material processing equipment and surfaces by hand, with cleaning solutions or with dry ice blasting.

Throughout the Continental U.S.

Material Processing Plant Cleaning

Contamination in a material processing plant comes from more than the process. Production releases dust and debris, outdoor plants take the weather, people track material in, maintenance leaves its own mess behind, airborne particles settle, and spills and leaks happen.

Recoveron Industrial has the experience and the capacity to deal with all of it, by hand with brushes and rags, with cleaning solutions, with dry ice blasting, or with high-pressure water jets.

Where the Contamination Comes From

The process itself

The materials being processed release dust, debris and other contaminants into the air and onto equipment and surfaces, continuously.

Dust collection

Weather

Outdoor plants take wind-blown dust, dirt and rain, which turns into a film on everything that is not sheltered.

Pressure washing

Human activity

Employees and visitors track dirt in from outside, and equipment and surfaces get dirty simply from being used.

Maintenance

Repairs and routine maintenance leave grease, swarf and residue that the maintenance crew is rarely equipped to clear properly.

Equipment cleaning

Airborne particles

Pollutants and other airborne particles come into the facility and settle on equipment and surfaces, including the ones nobody can reach.

Spills and leaks

Accidents spread material where it does not belong, and what is not cleaned up properly gets walked and driven through the plant.

How We Deal With It

Method matched to the soil

Hand cleaning, chemical cleaning, dry ice or high-pressure water. The right answer changes between two surfaces in the same building.

Around your production

Scheduled downtime, weekends and shutdown windows, with containment so one area is cleaned while the rest keeps processing.

Including what is out of reach

Technicians certified with a lift, so the structure, ducting and high ledges are in the scope rather than in the exclusions.

How a Project Runs

The walk-through

We walk the plant with someone who knows it, and work out which of the sources above is actually driving the problem.

Scope and method

The quote names the areas, the method for each and what is excluded, so the comparison with another bid is a fair one.

Containment and lockout

Protection for equipment and product nearby, and lockout agreed with your team before anyone works on a machine.

Clean, inspect, hand back

The work, then a documented inspection, and a recommendation on how often this needs repeating.

Luke Landscape Structures Inc Delano, MN

“The Recoveron team arrived on time and prepared with all of the required personal protective equipment and food safety requirements in hand. Once onsite their team was extremely self motivated, driven, and required very little oversight from our facility's resources other than general check-ins. Overall we were very impressed with the overhead pipe cleaning service that they provide. I would highly recommend their cleaning crew to any manufacturing facility needing this type of service.”

Kerry Ocean Spray Cranberries Inc. Wisconsin Rapids, WI

"Great job!

Good overall experience."

Benjamin Swift Prepared Foods Council Bluffs, IA

"Very flexible and easy to work with. Good job cleaning, too!"

Jim Automated Pet Care Products, LLC Auburn Hills, MI

"Recoveron was a great choice for the room we needed cleaned. It had diesel soot and oil caked on (walls, ceiling and floor) for over 15 years and their team has it spotless. One of the biggest comments we have received from our employees is that "It doesn't even look like the same room". Their service was timely, very easy to schedule, and customer service was amazing. Would strongly recommend using Recoveron for future projects here and to anyone in need of any of their services."

Trent W.S. Darley Chippewa Falls, WI

"I have passed on this information to others within Republic Services."

Mark Republic Services Melrose Park, IL

"The team was very accommodating and did the work in a timely manner.
The plant looks a lot cleaner, and the crew went above and beyond."

Robbie Tenneco Goshen, IN

"Our 30+-year-old machining company was in dire need of professional cleaning, especially after the installation of 3 new large boring mills and an open house just around the corner! The walls and floor were covered in layers of grease, oil, and coolant. I had several local cleaners in to review and quote the project…. all declined; it was outside of their capability, and they wouldn't touch it.

After calling Recoveron, I could sense they had seen it all before. Their team came out to review and quote the project….. didn't even blink an eye… they could do the job, NO PROBLEM! Plus, they would work during the Off Shift so that we could continue to produce product for our customers. They coordinated the lifts and equipment, and the crew went to work over ten days, meeting with the shop foreman daily to coordinate a plan each night and setting the direction for ease and efficiency for both Recoveron and Lighting Machine. The crew was respectful, detailed, and systematic and took pride in their work; they treated our machine shop as if it were their own home.

The project cost was fair and reasonable, and we intend to engage Recoveron regularly to keep the shop in Tip-Top shape. I have already recommended other companies in our industry to give them a call!
It has been a delight to work with Recoveron; the results are dramatic and far exceeded our expectations!"

Mary Lightning Machine Holland, MI

"Our building looks so much better and I appreciate all the hard work from your team."

FAQ

Material Processing Plant: common questions

What makes a material processing plant dirty?

The process releasing dust and debris onto equipment and surfaces, weather at outdoor plants, dirt tracked in by employees and visitors, maintenance and repair work, airborne particles settling, and spills and leaks.

How do you clean one?

By hand with brushes and rags, with cleaning solutions, with dry ice blasting or with high-pressure water jets, chosen by the surface and by what is sitting on it.

Can you clean outdoor areas of the plant?

Yes. Outdoor plants take wind-blown dust, dirt and rain, and pressure washing is usually the right answer for the film that leaves behind.

Does the plant have to stop?

Rarely in full. Work goes into scheduled downtime with containment, so processing continues in the rest of the facility.

Can you reach the structure and ducting?

Yes. Our technicians are certified to work from a lift, so the overhead structure, ducting and high ledges are part of the scope.
