Why this washing up liquid earns its place
Jantex Washing Up Liquid is a concentrated formula built with a pH-neutral balance, which means it's gentler on hands than a lot of catering-strength washing up liquid – a real consideration for anyone spending hours at the pot wash. It's still built to shift stubborn dirt and grime quickly, so the gentler formulation doesn't come at the cost of cleaning power.
The advanced formula is designed to prevent spotting on glass, cutlery and crockery as it dries, and it's food-safe throughout, so it's suited to cleaning glassware, kitchenware and crockery without leaving residue behind. Dilution runs at 1:500 for general manual dish washing, and it's built to work with a Jantex pelican pump (GF368) for a consistent 25ml dose each time.
As a concentrate, it delivers a strong cost-per-use, and the 5-litre bottle is built to last through a real volume of daily washing up. Jantex bottles are also being progressively changed over to 30% recycled post-consumer plastic, a small ongoing packaging improvement across the range.
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.
