Description
What Is Agar Antifoam?
Agar Antifoam is a concentrated foam-control additive developed to rapidly collapse foam and prevent excessive bubble formation in recovery tanks and cleaning equipment. Excessive foam can reduce machine efficiency, limit recovery tank capacity and increase equipment downtime.
By controlling foam at the source, Antifoam helps cleaning professionals maintain productivity while protecting valuable cleaning equipment.
Key Benefits of Agar Antifoam
- Rapidly breaks down foam and bubbles
- Maximises recovery tank capacity
- Improves operational efficiency
- Helps reduce machine downtime
- Suitable for carpet extractors and scrubbers
- Protects vacuum motors from foam-related issues
- Concentrated silicone-based formulation
- Suitable for professional cleaning applications
- Easy to incorporate into cleaning programs
- Supports consistent equipment performance
Why Foam Control Matters
Foam accumulation inside recovery tanks reduces usable tank volume and can interrupt cleaning operations. In severe cases, foam may reach vacuum motors and internal machine components. Effective foam control helps maintain extraction performance, increase productivity and support equipment longevity.
Applications
- Carpet extraction machines
- Hot water extraction systems
- Automatic floor scrubbers
- Wet vacuum cleaners
- Restoration cleaning equipment
- Commercial cleaning operations
- Facility maintenance programs
- Industrial cleaning systems
How Agar Antifoam Works
The silicone-based formula quickly destabilises foam structures, causing bubbles to collapse before they accumulate inside recovery tanks. This allows liquid waste to occupy available tank capacity instead of foam, improving equipment efficiency and reducing unnecessary tank emptying.
