DeVere offers a series of quick reference cleaning guides for the hospitality industry. Need a restroom cleaner for a convenience store?  Simply go to the convenience store cleaning guide, look at the facility floor plan, find the number located at the restroom, and refer to that number in the list below the convenience store layout for the list of DeVere restroom products.

Here is a convenience store cleaning guide that shows where DeVere products are used in convenience stores for cleaning and sanitizing. We continually work to create and improve tools that help to support you.  This updated convenience store flyer shows a typical convenience store layout with information on the DeVere products made to clean each location within the convenience store.

This can help answer the question “What can DeVere do for you?” posed in our video.

Here are just a few updates:

Label revisions: We are constantly working to update and enhance our labels to make them current and useful.

Technical Data Sheets: We now have a technical data sheet for almost all of our products. You will find these sheets on each product page. Example: Powder Descaler product page

Degrease Powder: Place this powder directly on tough greases and oils to start breaking them down (emulsifying them) or dilute with water and use this product as an industrial strength degreaser.

Beverage Pucks: Place this product in a soda fountain tray to start releasing cleaning agents that will keep soda fountain drains clear and clog-free.

Ready-to-Use (RTU) Products: We added a full line of RTU products in late 2016.  Many of our most capable concentrates are now available in RTU form.

Contact us to tell us what you need and we will be happy to work with you to find the best solution.

The “Why DeVere” video briefly explains our company.  We look forward to adding useful content to the YouTube channel as it becomes available.

The U.S. Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) has made the largest change to their Hazardous Communication regulation since its introduction in 1983.

According to OSHA, GHS is an acronym for The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals. The GHS is a system for standardizing and harmonizing the classification and labeling of chemicals. It is a logical and comprehensive approach to:

• Defining health, physical and environmental hazards of chemicals;
• Creating classification processes that use available data on chemicals for comparison with the defined hazard criteria; and
• Communicating hazard information, as well as protective measures, on labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDS).

If you have questions, DeVere can help.  Please see our GHS compliance overview for more information:  DeVere_GHS_Overview2015

Five Ace Hardware stores now have promotional DeVere end cap displays complete with products, literature and salesman (depending on availability).

Currently, the Ace stores in Beloit, Janesville (Milwaukee Street), Evansville, and Milton, Wisconsin have DeVere end cap displays.  Please visit one of these stores when you are in the area.  If this regional promotion goes well, we will look to partner with other Ace Hardware stores to expand the displays.

For more information on the stores (including directions), please visit the Ace Hardware websites listed below.

Since 1955 DeVere has been bringing cleaning solutions to a variety of industries.  The people, products and services have changed along with our facilities.  The focus remains the same and innovation remains constant.

DeVere develops new products every month and looks forward to working on unusual cleaning and sanitizing needs.

DeVere has a comprehensive swine program that fully supports a variety of swine facilities.  Please see our Swine Brochure for more information.  The product and application trials are complete and we are very excited about the results. 

Proper hygienic procedures for chemical cleaning and disinfection will help prevent disease, increase growth rate and reduce production costs. Do not let cleaning and washing facilities get overlooked. Use DeVere’s proven chemistry and training to improve result, animal health and profitability.

The key to better results is to take a comprehensive approach using the modern techniques developed in the large slaughtering and food processing facilities that require the highest levels of sanitation for the consumer. These techniques allow large facilities to clean and sanitize all floor, walls and equipment surfaces and get them back into production is a matter of just a few hours. DeVere’s swine hygiene programs teach and apply these principles.
