Eastman Omnia solvent from the Eastman Chemical Company adheres to state and federal regulations and even carries third-party certifications for safety and environmental friendliness, yet it cleans more effectively than even harsh products on the market. The solvent has been shown to be 100 percent effective in a lab test of grease on aluminum, and it carries the EPA's 'Safer Choice' product designation.
In creating a Eastman Omnia, the company focused on six areas of toxicity: carcinogenicity, neurotoxicity, acute mammalian toxicity, reproductive and developmental toxicity, repeated-dose toxicity, and environmental fate. These are the areas screened by the EPA as well, as they cover the gamut of safety for humans, pets, and environment as a whole. Omnia was shown to pass all these areas.
Due to the unique properties of Eastman Omnia, the solvent is most effective in neutral pH formulations.
