History
Founded in 1992, during the EPA environmental phase-out of many traditional cleaning solvents, Best Technology identified the need for alternative chemistries and requirements for new, custom cleaning and process manufacturing equipment. Best Technology has extensive knowledge of aqueous cleaning alternatives to solvents as well as today’s engineered solvents which provide safe environmental impact and employee exposure/work environments.
Since 1992, Best Technology has been offering products ranging from precision and industrial parts cleaning equipment, passivation systems, part finishing equipment, precision cleaning chemistries, and specialty process equipment in the midwest: Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, South Dakota and North Dakota as well as throughout the United States and worldwide.
Unique Value to Customers
Differing from part cleaning and finishing equipment manufacturers which only offer one or two types of equipment they make, Best Technology’s extensive product portfolio of our own and many other manufacturers, combined with 20+ years of industry experience and knowledge, allow for the correct pairing of customer application to equipment and chemistry.
This wide product offering coupled with turnkey services of process troubleshooting & development, procedure development and validations allows us to accomplish our goal: demonstrate, educate and solve our customers’ part cleaning, chemical and finishing application using a complete, turnkey approach.
The bottom line for our customers, Best Technology’ s broad product offering allows for the proper equipment selection rather than feeling pushed to one specific type of system and our services allow for maintaining focus on their business rather than tend to process troubleshooting, stability and validation.
There is no application too big or small, so contact us for a solution to your manufacturing equipment application!
