Why this oven cleaner earns its place
Suma Max D9.2 targets the same heavy, carbonised soiling as a specialist oven and grill cleaner, but it's formulated to be used daily rather than kept for occasional deep-cleans. The blend of alkali, surfactants and solvents breaks down stubborn carbonised residue on ovens, grills and salamanders, and Diversey notes it delivers its best results specifically with regular, daily application rather than as a one-off strip.
It's applied through a foam sprayer with an extension, which reaches into the back and roof of an oven or under a grill and cuts down on the mist a straight spray produces in an enclosed space. Diluted with water, the same product is also suitable for soak-cleaning fryers, so it covers oven, grill, salamander and fryer cleaning without switching bottles.
Where it stands apart from a heavier alkaline cleaner like Suma Grill D9 is the safety profile: Suma Max D9.2 is rated non-corrosive, non-irritant and non-flammable, which makes it a more practical choice for a product that's going to be handled by kitchen staff every day rather than reserved for occasional deep-cleans by a trained cleaning contractor.
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.
