Act Now to Secure Your Replacements for 3M™ Novec™ Engineered Fluids

Jul 23, 2025 | Vapour Degreasing Solvents News

Replacements for 3M Novec Engineered Fluids.

Act Now to Secure Your Replacements for 3M™ Novec™ Engineered Fluids.

In March 2025, 3M™ officially closed final order dates and confirmed the discontinuation of its Novec™ Engineered Fluids, with supplies ceasing by 31 December 2025. As this deadline looms, companies in electronics, aerospace, medical devices, precision engineering, and related sectors must act swiftly to prevent supply chain disruptions and rising costs.

Why You Must Act Now

  • Imminent Shortages & Rising Costs: Many 3M™ Novec™ grades are already becoming unavailable, with others facing long lead times and inflated prices as stocks dwindle.
  • Supply Chain Shortage: Final Orders for most 3M™ Novec™ grades were on 31st March 2025 and global stocks are diminishing fast.
  • Operational Risks: Delays in cleaning and degreasing processes could severely impact manufacturing timelines.

Switch to ProSolv® Direct Replacements

EnviroTech Europe has introduced ProSolv® Direct Replacements for 3M™ Novec™ Engineered Fluids – formulated as chemically exact, drop-in alternatives for all Novec grades. These solvents are designed to:

  • Match performance (cleaning power, non-flammability, GWP & ODP levels).
  • Require no changes to existing vapour degreasing equipment.
  • Provide long-term availability and peace of mind through the transition.
