We take pride in is our core competency, and that’s being experts in surface chemistry. We understand the function of cause and effect of chemistry with all mediums, from printing press room, all the way to medical chemistry. When you use a press room, as an example, you’re touching many different surfaces. You’re touching everything from organic items like paper to aluminum plates and carbons. You’re also touching hydrocarbon substrates like plastics, all the way to using other chemistries, like ink. When it comes to chemistry handling, and we want you to do it safely. Here are our six solutions for safer chemistry handling.

The state of Wisconsin’s “Safer at Home” order of March 25 has shut down “non essential business,” but our manufacturing plant is exempt. We maintain critical supplier status as we serve the electronic, medical device, graphic arts, and military industries. Part of this includes manufacturing cleaning solutions, like DT-600
As manufacturers of isopropanol & ethanol reallocate supply to support the medical, healthcare, and disinfectant industries, RBP Chemical Technology would like to offer another solution. Our DT-600 is an All-Purpose concentrate cleaner that can be used on a variety of surface types. This versatile and dilutable cleaner can tackle different cleaning jobs, meaning you only have to carry one product to conduct multiple cleaning processes. This product is environmentally friendly, and low odor with zero VOC’s.
