Why this dishwasher tablet earns its place
This is the Lemon variant of Fairy Professional's Platinum range, built for commercial kitchens that need more cleaning power than a standard capsule provides. The bespoke concentrated formula is designed to handle tougher, more stubborn soiling in one wash, which matters when a kitchen can't afford to run the same load twice.
Salt and rinse aid action is built into the capsule, so glasses and cutlery keep their finish over repeated commercial washes without needing separate dosing. Platinum's extra job is inside the machine — the formula helps clean the dishwasher's filter of limescale and works to prevent grease building up on the drainage system, filters and spray arm, which keeps a heavily used machine running as it should.
Each capsule sits in an ultrasoluble pouch that dissolves faster than a hard-pressed tablet, getting to work on grease earlier in the cycle. There's no unwrapping required — capsules go straight into the machine, which keeps the process quick for staff working through a busy pass.
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.
