Impeccable Cleaning Is the Foundation of Quality Maple Syrup

In a sugar shack, every step of the process directly impacts the purity of the final product.
 Choosing the right cleaning tools is crucial — especially when it comes to maintaining the cleanliness and integrity of your stainless steel equipment.


At Brosses Lacasse, we design brushes for maple syrup producers who want to keep their equipment spotless, avoid contamination, and work more efficiently every season.

Why Cleaning in Sugar Shacks Is So Critical

Maple production equipment — such as evaporators, tanks, pans, tubing, and buckets — is constantly exposed to:

  • Crystallized sugar residues

  • Burnt syrup or limestone deposits

  • Condensed steam, constant humidity

  • Hard-to-reach corners and joints


Without proper brushes, cleaning becomes laborious, incomplete, or worse — it risks damaging your stainless steel surfaces.
 A scratch on a pan creates an ideal spot for bacteria and potential non-compliance during inspections.

Preserve Your Surfaces = Preserve Your Production

Producers often tell us:
 “I need a brush that cleans well without damaging my equipment.”
That’s exactly what we deliver.

Our brushes:

  • Protect stainless steel from micro-scratches

  • Leave no residues (high-resistance, non-shedding fibers)

  • Resist cleaning chemicals recommended for maple production


Plus, they are built to last an entire season — or more, depending on usage frequency.
