    ZURICH, Mar 27, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Exelerate® ZTF, a patent-pending cleaning solution that dissolves low trans fat oil residue from processing equipment and surfaces, is now available to food manufacturers throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

    Exelerate ZTF’s thixotropic gel technology clings to equipment and surfaces to help dissolve low trans fat soils, making it easier to remove soils in hard-to-reach areas, including fryer hood vents, walls, ceilings and plant catwalks.

    “The increased use of low trans fat oils in food processing operations has created new cleaning challenges,” said Andreas Weilinghoff, senior vice president and general manager of Ecolab Food & Beverage, EMEA. “As the oil mist from frying and baking processes comes into contact with equipment and surfaces, extremely stubborn soils build up, making surfaces very slippery and difficult to clean. Exelerate ZTF offers the optimized cleaning performance necessary to help avoid low trans fat oil residue.

    NEW YORK (NBC) – Spring cleaning is just around the corner, and a little checking on your home might stop a big repair bill, especially with your roof.

    "Look for loose shingles, look for, check in the attic potentially for any leaks, see if you see leaks through your ceiling, those are all signs you need your roof looked at," said Angie Hicks, founder of Angie's List.

    Most roofs last twenty years, but they might just need new weatherproofing or shingles.

    While you're outside, inspect walls for holes to make sure critters can't creep inside. You might be surprised at how small a space they need.

    Back indoors, look for water leaks.
