Our ULTRA PLAST cleaning granules are the ideal solution for companies looking for an effective way to clean injection molding machines, extruders, and hot runner systems. They remove deposits, color residues, and oxidation products from plastic processing machines, ensuring optimal production efficiency.
Challenges in Cleaning Plasticizing Units
Modern production is becoming increasingly flexible, leading to frequent material and color changes. In these cases, plastic residues can remain in the plasticizing system, causing defects, discoloration, and thermal degradation. This not only results in material waste but also significant financial losses due to machine downtime. Additionally, it is essential to fully purge the system before shutdown or material changes.
Effective Solution – ULTRA PLAST Cleaning Granules
Our non-abrasive cleaning granules effectively remove residues from most thermoplastic materials, providing fast and efficient cleaning without damaging machines. They can be used for cleaning cylinders, screws, and hot runner systems. Thanks to various product variants, ULTRA PLAST meets the requirements of different production processes, including transparent plastic processing, thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), and biopolymers.
Certified and Safe Cleaning Agents
ULTRA PLAST cleaning granules are certified for use in the food, medical, and cleanroom industries, ensuring high quality and safety standards.
Benefits of Using ULTRA PLAST Cleaning Granules
- Elimination of black spots and deposits in the plasticizing system
- Removal of burn marks and polymer contamination
- Fast cleaning of hot runner systems without disassembly
- Optimized color and material changes for more efficient production
- Odorless – no harmful fumesNon-abrasive – safe for machines
- Prevents steel oxidation and reduces production waste
- FDA and CE 2002/72 – 10/2011 certified for contact with food and beverages
Applications of ULTRA PLAST Cleaning Granules
ULTRA PLAST cleaning granules are suitable for various plastic processing operations, including:
- Injection molding

- Extrusion and system purge before shutdown
- Blow molding
- Machine preparation for material change
How Do ULTRA PLAST Cleaning Granules Work?
Our products are based on innovative chemical cleaning technology that removes deposits without damaging machines.
- The product contains no abrasives and works through a chemical reaction, effectively removing color deposits, black spots, rust, and other contaminants.
- Expanding and foaming components make the cleaning process even more effective, especially for machines with degassing and plasticizing accumulators.
- The cleaning granulate operates at the processing temperature of the previous material, without requiring an extended dwell time.
