A collaboration between Brighton Science and Hubbard-Hall is set to help expand Hubbard-Hall’s services and accelerate the speed at which its customers can innovate. The companies are offering the Infinity Surface Cleaning Intelligence Program which combines Brighton Science’s technologies and materials science knowledge with Hubbard-Hall’s chemistry and cleaning knowledge .

Combining both Brighton Science and Hubbard-Hall's strengths, the goal of this collective service is to solve, prevent and control the variables and risks manufacturers face when preparing surfaces for bonding and adhesion. Through the program, it is said customers can ensure that critical cleaning
processes are predictable, data-driven and enable innovation to match customers’ ever-changing surface cleanliness needs.

"We are delighted to be teaming up with Hubbard-Hall to help their customers better understand and control their processes,” says Andrew Reeher, chief executive officer of Brighton Science. “The combination of science and service leads to better customer performance and outcomes,"

There are two versions of the program. The first is the Infinity Brighton Specification Package, a proactive solution meant for those who have yet to invest in a cleaning line. Brighton Science provides a set of cleaning specification parameters to be measured by its surface analyst technologies. With those parameters defined, customers have access to material science Ph.D.-level consultants to solve, prevent and control critical surface cleaning challenges, improve value engineering and optimize the cleaning process.

The second program version is the Infinity Optimizer Package, which focuses on optimizing and innovating an existing cleaning process through consultations with Hubbard-Hall and Brighton Science experts. The conversations center around value engineering and how it can positively affect a cleaning process and establish process specifications.

“We want to help our customers use less chemistry,” says Molly Kellogg, Hubbard-Hall chairman, president and CEO. “By partnering with Brighton Science, we can use their technology to validate cleanliness and help our customers achieve better control and predictability around cleaning. The goal is to finally bring scientific control to high-value cleaning operations." 

The Infinity Surface Cleaning Intelligence Program is intended to help a variety of suppliers, manufacturing engineers and management teams by mitigating risk through surface cleanliness checks as well as locating bonding and adhesion mistakes as they happen — instead of when it is too late. This helps prevent faulty products from reaching customers, minimizing customer and brand reputation damages as well as the potential for monetary repercussions for the companies involved.
