Why this floor cleaner earns its place
This is a heavy-duty stripper for contractors and facilities teams who need to clear old polish and wax build-up before laying down a fresh finish. It's built for the strip stage of a full floor restoration, not routine maintenance.
The fast-acting formula breaks down stubborn polish and grime, and its low-foam profile means it works cleanly whether you're stripping by hand and mop or running a scrubber-dryer or rotary machine over it. Diluted at 1:10, each 5-litre bottle makes up to 50 litres of working solution, and pairing it with the Jantex pelican pump (GF368, sold separately) keeps dosing consistent rather than relying on guesswork with a jug.
It's a hazard corrosive concentrate intended for professional use, and it's suitable on all hard floors except unsealed wood and cork, which it will damage. The bottle is being moved over to 30% recycled post-consumer plastic.
COSHH: six habits of safe chemical use
Control of Substances Hazardous to Health — the routine every commercial kitchen and cleaning cupboard is expected to run.
SDS
Read the label and the manufacturer’s safety data sheet — the pictograms tell you what you are holding.
Who could be harmed, and how badly? Judge likelihood against severity before anyone opens the cap.
Eliminate or substitute first, engineer and organise next — PPE is the last line, never the first.
Keep the controls working: check ventilation, dosing equipment and storage stay as they should be.
Everyone who uses it knows the hazards, the correct dilution and the PPE — before the first shift, not after.
Products and processes change. Reassess when they do, and keep the record that proves it.
