Clean-in-Place (CIP) Cleaning
Caustic and acid cycles for processing lines, tanks, and equipment
Clean-in-place runs a documented cycle on processing equipment that is not disassembled: a caustic cycle to break down protein and fat soils, an acid cycle to remove mineral scale, with rinses between. The chemistry has to match your soil load, equipment, and sanitation plan.
ICD stocks CIP caustics and acids with SDS documentation buyers can pull before ordering. Confirm chemistry and dilution against your sanitation plan, then build a quote with MOQ-valid quantities.
Common challenges
- Protein and fat soils that mild cleaners leave behind
- Mineral scale on tanks and process lines
- Documentation requirements for audits and procurement
How to approach it
- Caustic cycle products for protein and fat soils
- Acid cycle products to remove mineral scale
- Dilution matched to your sanitation plan and equipment
Procurement considerations
- Match chemistry to your documented CIP cycle
- Review hazmat class and PPE on the SDS first
- Size packaging from drums to totes with MOQ shown

ICD is quote-first. Add MOQ-valid quantities to a quote request and our team confirms account pricing and freight before you commit — there is no cart checkout or public retail price.
How is freight handled for bulk orders?
Freight on drums and totes is human-in-the-loop: our team verifies the shipping cost after your quote so the final total is accurate rather than an automated estimate.
