Cleaning test pieces is as simple as washing your dishes.
Here are our
CLEANING GUIDELINES FOR ACETAL TEST PIECES
Regal Packaging Services does not certify or assume responsibility for determining the standards for cleaning in your HACCP plan, however, techniques for cleaning acetal rods, cards and other test pieces should be based on standard food and pharmaceutical industry practice.
The acetal (plastic) material used to manufacture test pieces is resistant to chemicals. Laminate or thermoform cards are more sensitive (see directions at the bottom), however, they can be cleaned with the same type cleaners.
Excessive temperatures in a dishwasher or autoclave are not recommended.
Acetal is resistant to solvents and chemicals: Where occasional cleaning or accidental contact occurs with solvents, the excellent solvent resistance of acetal, compared to other plastics ensures that it will neither crack nor soften. Still, solvents, such as mineral spirits, should be avoided.
