More than 40 years designing machinery for demanding chemical environments: compatible with acidic or alkaline detergents, solvents, steam, and ATEX atmospheres.
Validated solutions for drums, IBCs, tanks, containers, and process lines.
EKINSA machinery is specially designed to tackle cleaning challenges in the chemical industry, where safety, chemical compatibility, and hygienic traceability are essential requirements.
Reduction of risks for the operator and the environment.
Supports cycles with:
Configurable according to the substance and the type of dirt to be removed.
Long useful life even in corrosive, humid, or particle-laden atmospheres.
Each cycle can be recorded by:
Compatible with ERP, SCADA, or quality control systems integration
Facilitates the hygienic validation and traceability required by ISO, REACH, CLP, or industrial customers.
EKINSA solutions are installed in chemical plants that require technical, safe, and efficient cleaning in all phases of the process: from raw material handling to reverse logistics. Below, their main real applications are detailed.
Interior and exterior cleaning of:
Available systems with multidirectional rotating heads, pressure sprinklers, and configurable cycles.
Ideal for technical chemicals, additives, solvents, concentrates, or intermediate products.
CIP (Clean-In-Place) or manual washing of:
Compatible with disinfectant solutions, steam, or hot water.
Reduces technical downtime, avoids cross-contamination between batches, and maintains safety standards.
Industrial cleaning to recondition:
Allows certification of the hygienic process prior to repackaging.
Optimizes circular economy processes in controlled chemical environments.
Equipment designed to connect to:
Facilitates a closed or semi-closed circuit, complying with environmental and safety legislation.
In the chemical environment, traditional cleaning methods (manual, improvised, or without traceability) pose operational, economic, and legal risks. EKINSA systems are designed to automate the process, ensure safety, and improve efficiency.
| Criterion | EKINSA Systems (Specifically Designed for the Chemical Industry) | Manual / Generic Methods |
|---|---|---|
|
Operator exposure |
Minimum: closed process, vapor extraction, optional ATEX |
High: direct handling, risk from contact or inhalation |
|
Water and energy consumption |
Optimized: controlled cycles, low pressure, thermal efficiency |
High: uncontrolled, excessive consumption, energy wastage |
|
Use of neutralizers or chemical products |
Precise dosing, minimal residue |
Overconsumption, risks from incorrect mixing |
|
Cleaning homogeneity |
Validable, programmable, constant |
Irregular, depends on the operator and the waste |
|
Container reuse ratio |
>90%, without residues or cross-contamination |
<70%, risk of rejections due to residues or persistent odors |
|
Traceability of the cycle |
By batch, with automatic records |
Nonexistent or manual |
|
Regulatory compliance (REACH, ISO, APPCC) |
Fully compatible |
Difficult to justify or validate |
|
Return on investment (ROI) |
<12 months in average production or actively refurbished |
No direct return, accumulated costs |
This block acts as final guarantee seal on the landing page, conveying experience, regulatory compliance, and support from companies in the sector that already work with EKINSA equipment.
Highlighted certifications and legal compliance
More than 40 years designing machinery for cleaning technical purposes in chemical and sensitive environments
EKINSA equipment cleans drums, GRG/IBC containers, tanks, process vessels and storage containers, including those previously used for industrial detergents, crop protection products, liquid fertilizers, technical alcohols, glycols and amines.
Yes. The machinery is compatible with acidic and alkaline detergents, solvents, steam and ATEX environments. Its robust construction is specifically designed to withstand harsh chemical processing conditions.
Yes. The equipment completely removes acidic and alkaline residues, solvents, surfactants and intermediate products, preventing cross-contamination between different batches or chemical formulations.
Yes. The equipment provides batch traceability and supports compliance with industry regulations, meeting the essential requirements for safety, quality assurance and chemical compatibility in the chemical industry.
Yes. The machinery can be integrated with extraction, neutralisation and product recovery systems, as well as with formulation, dosing and packaging lines, or reverse logistics and material recovery processes.
With more than 40 years of experience, EKINSA has been designing cleaning equipment for demanding chemical processing environments, providing validated solutions for drums, GRG/IBC containers, tanks, process vessels and production lines.
