Why this rinse aid earns its place
A rinse aid concentrate for commercial dishwashers, added at the final stage of the cycle to stop streaks, smears and spotting from forming on glasses, cutlery and crockery as they dry.
It uses surfactant technology to speed up drying time, so tableware comes out ready to use faster rather than sitting damp, and it's built to work across most types of dishwasher and in both hard and soft water areas. Diluted at 1:900, a 5-litre container goes a long way, which keeps the cost-per-use down for a product used on every single cycle.
Unlike several of the concentrates in this range, it carries no corrosive, irritant or flammable classification, which simplifies handling and storage on site. It's for professional use only, and the bottle is being transitioned 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.
