Why this degreaser earns its place
Bryta's kitchen cleaner and degreaser is built to break down cooked-on grease and everyday kitchen grime across the surfaces that take the most punishment – countertops, pans, appliances, extraction filters, drains, walls and floors. The concentrated liquid formula is designed to dissolve fat quickly enough that surfaces don't need scrubbing by hand, which matters when a kitchen team is turning a section round between services.
Dilute at 1:40 and each 5-litre bottle stretches to somewhere between 20 and 40 uses depending on how it's dosed, so the concentrate does the real work rather than the water. It's built to pair with a Jantex pelican pump (GF368) for a consistent 25ml dose every time, or into Jantex spray bottles (CD815-CD818) when you want a portable, ready-diluted bottle on the pass or in the pot wash.
It's unperfumed and food-safe, so it won't leave a scent behind on prep surfaces or utensils, and it's odourless in use – a genuine consideration in a working kitchen where strong fragrances compete with food smells. As a concentrate it is classed as an irritant, so gloves are recommended for anyone handling it undiluted or for prolonged contact once mixed.
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.
