Metron® 20kg
Evans Vanodine Metron® is a concentrated powder circulation cleaner formulated for thorough cleaning of dairy milking plants, pipelines and bulk milk tanks.
The chlorinated, caustic formulation combines sodium hydroxide and sodium metasilicate to effectively remove milk residues and fat deposits. Its sequestrant system makes Metron® suitable for use across different water hardness levels, while the powder dissolves easily for convenient circulation cleaning.
Metron® also helps protect rubber components and prevent milkstone build-up within the parlour. The low-residue formulation rinses freely away after cleaning, while the 20kg bucket produces up to 5,500 litres of working solution, making it economical for regular dairy cleaning routines.

Spray Cleaning of Bulk Milk Tanks
For automatic & hand operated tank spray cleaning equipment, the instructions of the manufacturer should be followed.
Automatically cleaned tanks should be manually cleaned at least once every month. In the case of tanks with manhole access, the tank should be inspected at least once a week. If problems arise, the manufacturers of the automatic cleaning equipment should be consulted.
