SYSTEMK4 is an environmentally friendly and absolutely safe cleaning process. The basic component of SYSTEMK4 is a halogen-free solvent. It is designed in such a way that, when properly used, it does not pose a risk to air, water, human beings and soil. And here lies the huge innovative potential of SYSTEMK4: The cleaning effect of the solvent SOLVONK4 is the same as perchlorethylene, and sometimes even better. At the same time, SOLVONK4 is not classified in Europe as either a hazardous material or a hazardous substance! Moreover, SOLVONK4 is biodegradable and has been tested dermatologically with the result “Very Good”.

The unique advantages are absolutely clear:

• You offer your customers excellent cleaning quality.
• You offer your customers dermatologically tested skin friendliness with the result “Very Good”.
• Biodegradable solvent : eco-friendly, preserve nature in a sustainable manner.
• Increase the safety of your business thanks to the favorable hazardous substance classification of SYSTEMK4.
• Satisfy all legal, environmental and work place regulations.
• Economical and increased productivity with lower energy expenditure.

In dry-cleaning it is important that solvents, products, machines and processes are all compatible. SYSTEMK4 takes this into account.

SYSTEMK4’s secret for success is actually quite simple:

1 System – 4 components of success:

• SOLVONK4 – The halogen-free solvent.
• PRENETTK4 – The brushing agent.
• CLIPK4 – The detergent concentrate.
• VINOYK4 – The water and stain repellant agent.

This successful quartet is perfectly complimented by dry cleaning machines  that are adjusted for SOLVONK4.

Machine requirements:
As a pre-condition for the machines, SYSTEMK4 requires a technology similar to the proven technology used by HCS - and Cyclosiloxane machines. However, distillation conditions, drying process of textiles and some other machine parameters have to be adapted to the specific application conditions of SOLVONK4. Kreussler did not leave it at that though and, together with FMB the competent and innovative machine manufacturer from Bologna/ Italy, developed a new generation of machines and cleaning procedures adapted to SYSTEMK4.

In the meantime newSYSTEMK4 machines are available by most machine manufacturers. The machines are still flexible as MultiSolvent machine and have approvals on solvent Class A III for use of KWL, silicone D5 and SOLVONK4. The machines are distinguished from standard machines with more efficient drying, connected with shorter drying times and lower emissions.
