Scale and rust form on almost any surface exposed to hard water, heat or moisture. Left untreated, mineral scale chokes heat exchangers, pipework and processing equipment, while rust weakens steel and ruins finished surfaces. Westchem provides a full range of descaling and rust remover chemicals that dissolve these deposits quickly and return equipment to efficient, reliable operation.
Our range spans acidic descalers for heat exchangers, boilers and CIP systems through to rust converters, penetrating compounds and scale inhibitors. Whether you are cleaning a marine cooling circuit, a mining process line or workshop tooling, there is a formulation matched to the metal you are treating and the type of deposit you need to remove.

For heavy mineral scale and concrete residue, inhibited acid descalers such as our Inhibited Descaler and Phosclean strip deposits without aggressively attacking the base metal. Machine and appliance scale is handled by Scaleaway, dedicated acid cleaners cover heat exchangers and CIP circuits, and food grade citric and phosphoric acids suit sensitive processing areas.
On the rust side, Rust Rinse and Rust Evaporator lift surface corrosion, Sanvert converts and passivates rust in a single step, and our Penetrating Compound frees seized fasteners. Marine operators rely on Mariners Mate and Mariners Mate Extra to remove rust and scale from boats, fittings and equipment exposed to constant salt water.
Every product is available in practical bulk pack sizes, from 5 and 20 litre containers up to 200 and 1000 litre volumes, so you can order the right quantity for a one off clean or ongoing plant maintenance.
