CONSULTATION IN PASSIVATION

More than just paperwork

Who We Are

Passivation, Bioremediation Experts

Consultation in Passivation (CIP) provides science-based precision cleaning, passivation, and bioremediation for austenitic stainless steel systems used in pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical-device manufacturing. Founded in 1995, CIP’s proprietary three-step process is built on chelation chemistry developed through Chemical Research and Development beginning in 1979, representing over 45 years of proven laboratory research and field validation. CIP’s methodology is engineered to meet and exceed ASTM A967 requirements, delivering true chromium-enriched passivity, long-term corrosion resistance, and reliable system performance.

Proprietary Non-Toxic Process

Advanced Solutions

Consultation in Passivation, Inc. provides effective, non-toxic, non-corrosive, and biodegradable cleaning and passivation services for stainless steel systems. CIP’s proprietary chelation-based process is tailored to each individual system, recognizing that no two alloys, surface conditions, or operating histories are ever identical. Rather than relying on generic or “one-size-fits-all” recipes, CIP engineers each application to achieve consistent iron removal, durable stainless-steel passivity, and long-term corrosion resistance while meeting and exceeding ASTM A967 requirements—without the risks associated with aggressive mineral-acid treatments.
