Green HMP – Liquid Hot Melt Purge is a low-viscosity cleaning fluid specially developed to clean and remove hot melt adhesives associated with hose-fed hot melt application equipment.

Green HMP is a liquid formulation that effectively dissolves all hot melt adhesive and decomposed or charred material.

It works by reducing the viscosity of hot melt adhesive and enabling the charred hot melt to be flushed easily from your pre-melt tank system or hose.

Description

Areas of Application

Green HMP is used in pre-emptied hot melt systems and equipment from manufacturers such as Nordson, Valco Melton and Robatech, where the removal of old adhesive material is required or a change of adhesive is needed.

Tanks and hoses can be cleaned in one simple action by circulating Green HMP through the hose system and looping it back into the tank to enable circulation, therefore cleaning both the tank and hose at the same time.

If only the tank requires cleaning, then simply fill the tank reservoir with Green HMP and heat as per label instructions.

FAQs

What is Green HMP used for?

Green HMP is a low viscosity cleaning fluid designed to remove hot melt adhesives and decomposed charred material from hose-fed hot melt application equipment.

It's ideal for cleaning tanks, hoses, and other parts of your hot melt system during adhesive changes or regular maintenance.

How does Green HMP work?

Green HMP dissolves old hot melt residues by reducing their viscosity, allowing them to be flushed out easily.

This helps with loosening decomposed charred material and preventing hose constrictions or erratic pump stroking that can occur when systems are not cleaned properly.

Is Green HMP safe for use in food environments?

Yes. Green HMP is NSF approved (P1) and part of the Nonfood Compounds Program Listed products. It’s widely used within food packaging industries, making it safe for use where hygiene standards are paramount.

How do I use Green HMP to clean tanks and hoses?

To clean both tanks and hoses, circulate the liquid formulation through the system by looping it back into the tank. This purges the entire system in one step. If only the tank needs cleaning, simply fill the reservoir, heat as directed, and allow the liquid to work through.

Can Green HMP prevent build-up on applicator wheels?

Yes. Routine use of Green HMP in your purging systems helps prevent applicator wheels and other components from becoming clogged with hot melt or adhesive build-up, ensuring smoother operation.

Is Green HMP effective in large-scale operations?

Absolutely. Green HMP is ideal for facilities handling large quantities of adhesives and using complex hot melt application equipment. Its liquid formulation makes it easy to apply across multiple system components, from tanks to hoses.

How do I gain access to product safety and certification info?

All NSF Approved Nonfood Compounds Program details for Green HMP are available on request. These certifications confirm its suitability for regulated industries such as food, automotive and pharmaceutical sectors.
