About Us
Industrial Cleaning Solutions
Sonic Solutions Ltd provides specialist industrial cleaning, surface preparation and component recovery services for some of the UK’s most demanding engineering industries.
Industrial Parts Cleaning & Processing Specialists Since 2004
Originally established as a specialist ultrasonic cleaning company, Sonic Solutions has grown into a multi-process industrial cleaning and processing partner supporting customers across:
- Aerospace
- Defence
- Offshore & Energy
- Plastics & Recycling
- Rail
- Automotive
- Heavy Engineering
- Superalloy Recycling
Our focus is simple: Help customers restore, maintain and recover high-value engineering components safely, efficiently and commercially.
Supporting Components Across Their Entire Lifecycle
Modern engineering components rarely have a simple lifecycle.
Some parts arrive with us brand new, requiring precision cleaning before assembly or inspection.
Others arrive heavily contaminated after years of operational service, requiring refurbishment, restoration or specialist recovery processes.
At Sonic Solutions, we support components throughout their working life, including:
- New manufacture cleaning
- Production support cleaning
- Service-return refurbishment
- Maintenance and overhaul support
- Surface preparation
- End-of-life recovery processing
Whether supporting aerospace manufacture, offshore maintenance operations or defence refurbishment programmes, our role remains the same:
Deliver reliable industrial cleaning solutions that reduce downtime, extend component life and improve operational performance.
Because replacing expensive components every time contamination becomes a problem is rarely the most sensible option. Though industry does occasionally try its best to prove otherwise.
More Than Just Ultrasonic Cleaning
While ultrasonic cleaning remains one of our core specialist services, Sonic Solutions now provides a complete range of industrial cleaning and processing solutions, including:
- Ultrasonic cleaning
- Thermal stripping & pyrolysis
- Vapour & shot blasting
- Industrial jet washing
- Chemical cleaning
- Surface preparation
- Specialist refurbishment support
- Superalloy toll processing
By combining multiple cleaning technologies under one roof, we are able to solve contamination challenges that many single-process cleaning companies simply cannot.
Many of the projects we support require carefully controlled, multi-stage cleaning processes involving combinations of:
- Thermal treatment
- Ultrasonics
- Chemical processing
- Jet washing
- Surface finishing
This flexible approach allows us to tailor cleaning processes around the component, contamination type and operational requirements of each customer.
Trusted Across Critical Engineering Industries
Over the years, Sonic Solutions has supported projects connected to some of the world’s leading engineering and industrial organisations, including:
- BAE Systems
- Babcock International
- Rolls-Royce Holdings
- Airbus
- NOV
- TechnipFMC
- Jaguar Land Rover
- BMW
- Nissan
Our work has included:
- Offshore hydrocyclone liner cleaning
- ROV hydraulic filter cleaning
- Defence refurbishment support
- Aerospace component cleaning
- Polymer processing equipment restoration
- Precision engineering cleaning
- Superalloy revert processing
- Thermal barrier coating removal development
We also have experience working alongside customer-specific engineering standards and controlled cleaning requirements, including projects involving DEF STAN and other precision cleanliness specifications.
Built Around Industrial B2B Support
Sonic Solutions is structured around industrial and engineering support work rather than consumer or cosmetic cleaning.
We work primarily with:
- Manufacturers
- OEM supply chains
- Engineering companies
- Maintenance providers
- Defence contractors
- Offshore operators
- Industrial recyclers
- Refurbishment programmes
Many of the components we process are:
- Difficult to clean
- Operationally critical
- Expensive to replace
- Highly contaminated
- Subject to demanding engineering requirements
That is where we deliver the greatest value.
Problem Solvers by Nature
Some of our most valuable work involves solving cleaning and processing challenges that fall outside conventional industrial cleaning methods.
This includes ongoing work involving:
- Hydrocarbon fouling removal
- Polymer contamination recovery
- Thermal barrier coating stripping
- Superalloy revert preparation
- Complex refurbishment cleaning
- Precision ultrasonic-assisted chemical cleaning
Increasingly, customers approach Sonic Solutions not simply for “cleaning”, but because they require practical engineering support for difficult contamination, refurbishment or recovery challenges.
Sometimes the difference between scrapping a component and recovering it successfully is simply having the right process, the right chemistry and enough experience to know when not to panic halfway through.
At Sonic Solutions, we combine practical engineering understanding with specialist cleaning technologies to deliver reliable industrial cleaning and processing solutions for modern engineering industries.

The Signs Are Up – And So Are We
Turns out, when you buy the old ATS building and don’t put your name on it… people assume you’re still fitting tyres When we opened the doors at our new unit in the former ATS building, we didn’t expect just how familiar the site still felt to the local area. For the...
Pyrolysis Ovens Repositioned for Heavy-Duty Work
A smarter layout, safer handling, and the space to take on jobs that simply weren’t possible before. We’ve recently relocated our pyrolysis ovens to the rear of the site, creating a far more practical and efficient setup for processing large and heavy components. The...
XRF Scanning – Adding Another Layer of Insight
Over the past few months, we’ve noticed a new trend emerging in plastics recycling: the rise of what we’ve started calling “micro recyclers.”

- That’s it!
What’s the catch?
In short, there isn’t one. You’re not obligated to do anything with us after your free trial clean. The truth is that we do pick up some great customers by offering select businesses a trial clean, but only when it’s a great fit and makes sense for all involved. Outsourced industrial parts cleaning isn’t for everyone and if it doesn’t make clear business sense for you to use us, we don’t expect you to. Simply put, we’re passionate about what we do and know that not everyone is aware of how effective, affordable and stress-free our service is which is why we offer this free trial from time to time to spread awareness.
What Our Customers Say About us
We approached Sonic Solutions after our parts manufacturers let us down and wasted precious time by supplying oily parts. Not only were they friendly, helpful and happy to rush our parts through - the quality was unbelievable! They arrived back at our factory just in time to not hold up production and we couldn't recommend them highly enough.
Martin Frings
Our company AssetCool found the entire team at Sonic Solutions to be responsive and incredibly supportive of a new project. Their technical knowledge is superb, and they delivered exactly what they promised. We're very happy to recommend them to anyone with ultrasonic cleaning needs, and look forward to working with them again in the future.
Tonia Parris
I reached out with a problem to various companies prior to talking with Sonic Solutions, most were unhelpful. These guys insisted on the first trial being for free! The job was excellent and the turn around time very impressive. We are now setting up a monthly cleaning regime with them. A joy to deal with.
