We are pleased to announce the introduction to New Zealand of EMS products for the construction industry. The products can replace numerous harsh and dangerous chemicals and will provide savings from reduced training and eliminating damage to equipment caused by corrosive caustics, solvents and acids.

EMS formulations have been honoured with endorsements and recommendations from the Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. Coast Guard, and the U.S. Navy. EMS technology was recognized by Hanley Wood, publishers of Concrete Producer and Masonry Construction magazines, with their Most Innovative Product award for 2006. EMS vehicles washes are the world’s only original equipment manufacturer (OEM) approved cleaners. Not only because they are safe, but because they work.

The difference between EMS products and all other cleaners is found in the patented and revolutionary ingredients.
SynTech® - Synthetic Acid
SynTech, the world's only synthetic hydrochloric acid replacement, delivers the cleaning power of hydrochloric acid while remaining non-corrosive, non-regulated, and non-harmful to humans, animals, and plant life.

SynClean® - Synthetic Degreaser
EMS patented technology safely lifts grease from any surface without the use of solvents or butyls. As such it is able to remove petroleum based oils, vegetable and animal fats along with dirt, soils, soot and grime. SynClean is non-emulsifying and has no special disposal requirements.

SynGuard – Anti-Stick
SynGuard is similar to other fluorosurfactants available in certain industries including Teflon® from DuPont and Scotchgard® from 3M. It is unique in that its inclusion in our vehicle washes does not alter the triple-zero HMIS rating on all EMS products. SynGuard is non-carcinogenic and non-flammable yet its protection and anti-stick properties are as potent as any fluorosurfactant on the market.

Release Agent
EMS release agents are made entirely from synthetic hydrocarbons and synthetic surfactants. This makes them free of petroleum distillates and terpene hydrocarbons, 100% non-toxic, and biodegradable. It also makes our products the only release agents that exceed ecological safety standards and have been deemed non-mutagenic by the EPA, DEP, and DER.

And because EMS patented key ingredients are synthetics, they can be mixed and remain stable with one another. This allows EMS to include SynTech along with EMS detergents, degreasers, natural rust inhibitors, waxes, protectants…whatever the job calls for into a simple one-step process. Apply and rinse. No neutralizing step is needed.

All EMS formulations carry triple-zero HMIS scores, are non-corrosive, non-irritating, non-mutagenic, and biodegradable. EMS products also carry EPA, FDA, OSHA and USDA approvals and are not regulated by the D.O.T. or Canadian TDG.

In New Zealand, BARRACUDA, BASIC CR, FUSION SD AND READY MIX TRUCK WASH & WAX are considered by ERMA to be NON-HAZARDOUS in terms of the HSNO Act.
