Why this detergent earns its place
Suma Nova L6 Pur-Eco is a concentrated dishwasher detergent formulated to shift dried-on food and grease quickly, while also controlling the limescale build-up that clogs jets and shortens machine life over time. It's certified to the EU Ecolabel and meets the strict environmental and safety criteria of the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, so it's a genuine option for kitchens that need to show real environmental credentials, not just claim them.
The formula is made from raw materials derived from natural vegetable sources rather than petrochemical alternatives, which matters to operators moving away from conventional chemistry without wanting to compromise on cleaning performance. Suitable for dishwashers, it's built to handle the daily grind of a busy pass rather than light domestic loads.
Being a concentrate, it goes further per litre than a ready-to-use product, which brings down cost in use and cuts down on the amount of packaging going through the kitchen – useful on both counts for sites watching spend and waste together. As a hazardous corrosive concentrate it's restricted to professional trade users, with age verification required at order and delivery, and standard return guarantees don't apply once it's dispatched.
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.
