Jangro Glasswasher Rinse Aid is a low-foaming rinse aid formulated for use in automatic glasswashing machines. It works during the final rinse cycle to sheet water off glass surfaces quickly, reducing drying time and leaving glasses clear and spot-free for service.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, the quality of glassware presented to customers matters. Water spotting and streaking are a common issue, particularly in hard water areas, and can mean glasses need hand-polishing before use — adding time to pre-service preparation. This rinse aid is formulated to work effectively in both hard and soft water conditions, which makes it a practical choice across most UK sites without needing to adjust dosing significantly between locations.
Used at the correct dosage through a glasswasher's built-in rinse aid dispenser, it helps operators maintain a consistent throughput of clean, dry glassware during peak service periods without manual intervention between cycles.
- Promotes rapid drying, reducing hand-polishing demands before service
- Minimises water spotting and streaking on drinking glasses
- Low-foaming formula suitable for all types of automatic glasswashers
- Effective in both hard and soft water areas
- Will not affect beer head retention — important for draught operations
This product is well suited to pubs, bars, hotels, restaurants, and clubs operating commercial glasswashers with an automatic chemical dosing system. The 5 litre container is a practical size for moderate-volume operations, though higher-volume sites may benefit from larger container formats to reduce changeover frequency.
If you have questions about compatible chemicals for your specific glasswasher or want guidance on dosing alongside a detergent, the team is happy to help.
£25.21(£30.25 inc VAT)
Jangro Dishwasher Powder is a concentrated warewashing detergent supplied in a 10kg resealable tub. It is designed for use in commercial dishwashers and tackles the everyday soiling common in busy catering environments, including food residues, tea and coffee staining, and general grease build-up. The concentrated formula means dosing quantities are relatively modest, helping to keep ongoing chemical costs in check.
In commercial kitchens, consistent results across a full service period depend on a detergent that performs reliably at the temperatures and cycle speeds typical of commercial machines. This powder supports that consistency, and its limescale-inhibiting properties are particularly useful in hard-water areas where scale accumulation can affect wash arm performance and shorten machine service intervals over time.
- Concentrated formula helps manage chemical usage and running costs
- Removes tea, coffee, and food staining from crockery and glassware
- Helps inhibit limescale build-up within the dishwasher
- Supplied in a resealable 10kg tub for practical storage
- Compatible with standard commercial dishwasher dispensing systems
The 10kg tub is a practical size for most sites — large enough to reduce reorder frequency without taking up excessive dry-store space. The resealable lid helps maintain powder quality between uses, which matters in kitchens where humidity can affect loose or poorly stored detergents.
This product is well suited to smaller commercial operations such as cafés, pub kitchens, care homes, and school canteens running a single dishwasher. Higher-volume sites processing large rack counts across a full day may find it worth considering a larger-format or liquid dosing system instead. If you are unsure whether this detergent is the right match for your machine type or water hardness, our team is happy to point you in the right direction.
£29.14(£34.97 inc VAT)
Water softener salt is a routine consumable for any commercial kitchen running a dishwasher or glasswasher with an integral or separate water softening unit. The softener draws on this salt to regenerate its resin bed, which strips calcium and magnesium from the incoming water supply before it reaches the machine. Without a consistent salt supply, the softener stops working effectively and hard water passes through unchecked.
In hard and very hard water areas — which covers a significant portion of the UK — uncontrolled limescale accumulation is one of the most common causes of premature warewashing equipment failure. Scale builds up on heating elements, spray arms, and internal pipework, reducing wash performance over time and eventually causing costly breakdowns. Keeping the softener topped up is one of the simplest and most cost-effective forms of machine maintenance available.
Granular salt dissolves readily during the regeneration cycle, making it well suited to commercial machines that cycle through salt at a higher rate than domestic units. A 25kg bag provides a practical supply volume for a busy site, reducing the frequency of reordering without creating excessive storage demands.
- Helps maintain effective limescale protection in hard water areas
- Supports consistent wash and rinse results, particularly on glassware
- Reduces the risk of scale-related heating element and spray arm damage
- Straightforward to handle and pour into standard softener reservoirs
Storage is straightforward — keep the bag sealed in a dry location away from moisture, and the salt will remain free-flowing and ready to use. If you are unsure how frequently your site needs to replenish salt, or whether your water hardness level warrants additional treatment measures, the team is happy to advise.
£23.95(£28.74 inc VAT)
ChemEco Dishwasher Rinse Aid is a commercially formulated rinse aid designed for use in single-tank and tunnel dishwashers, as well as glasswashers. Its acid-based formulation works during the final rinse cycle to break down water droplets, reduce scale build-up, and promote faster drying — leaving crockery, glassware, and cutlery streak-free after each cycle.
In a busy service environment, consistent wash results matter. Scale accumulation inside dishwasher arms and on washed items is a common problem, particularly in hard water areas. This rinse aid is formulated to perform across varying water conditions, which makes it a practical choice for kitchens where water hardness can affect finish quality.
- Reduces limescale deposits on washed items and internal dishwasher components
- Promotes faster drying, reducing the need for hand-polishing
- Compatible with commercial single-tank dishwashers and tunnel machines
- Suitable for use in glasswashers without affecting glassware clarity
- Formulated to an ecological specification, reducing environmental impact
The 5-litre container is a standard size suited to kitchens running regular dishwasher cycles throughout service. For higher-volume operations running multiple machines or extended shifts, it is worth considering whether larger pack sizes or a dosing review would better suit consumption rates.
If you are unsure which rinse aid concentration or dosing setting is appropriate for your machine or local water conditions, the team is happy to help you get it right.
£11.22(£13.46 inc VAT)
Jangro Glasswasher Detergent is a concentrated, low-foam liquid formulated for use in commercial automatic glasswashing machines. It is designed to work through the machine's built-in dosing system, breaking down grease, lipstick marks, and drink residues to leave glassware clean and ready for service.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, glassware turns around quickly and presentation matters. A detergent that leaves streaks, smears, or residue creates extra work — glasses pulled from the rack and re-polished by hand slow down service and add unnecessary labour. A correctly dosed commercial detergent, used consistently, removes that variable from the equation.
The low-foam concentration is particularly important in automatic machines, where excess foam can interfere with spray arm performance and trigger overflow conditions. This formulation is suited to the short, high-temperature cycles typical of undercounter and pass-through glasswashers used in licensed premises and catering operations.
- Concentrated formula — a small dose per cycle keeps running costs manageable
- Low-foam composition works correctly within automatic dosing systems
- Effective against common bar residues including lipstick, beer film, and soft drink syrup
- 5-litre container suits moderate-volume sites without excessive storage demands
- Compatible with the automatic dosing systems found on most commercial glasswashers
It is worth noting that dosing requirements vary depending on your machine model and local water hardness. Hard water areas may require adjustment to achieve consistently clean results, and in some cases a separate rinse aid will also be needed. Check your glasswasher manufacturer's guidance on approved chemicals before switching products.
This size is well suited to smaller licensed venues, cafés, and event catering operations with moderate glass volumes. Higher-volume sites running multiple racks per hour may find a larger format more practical. If you are unsure what suits your operation, we are happy to advise.
£81.80(£98.16 inc VAT)
Hobart Hyline Hygiene Tablets are a dedicated machine-cleaning product designed for use with Hobart and Ecomax hood dishwashers. They are used in conjunction with the machine's built-in hygiene programme to carry out a thorough internal clean — addressing limescale accumulation, grease build-up, lingering odours, and bacterial contamination within the wash chamber and on the heating elements.
In a busy commercial kitchen, dishwashers run continuously through service, and residues from food soils, hard water, and detergent can accumulate over time. This build-up can reduce the efficiency of heating elements, compromise wash temperatures, and create hygiene risks that are not addressed by the standard wash cycle alone. Regular use of a dedicated hygiene tablet helps maintain consistent machine performance and supports compliance with food hygiene standards.
The practical benefits of keeping on top of machine hygiene include:
- Helps the machine maintain optimal wash temperatures by keeping elements free from scale
- Reduces odour build-up inside the chamber between deep cleans
- Supports bacterial kill rates in line with the machine's hygiene programme
- Prolongs the working life of internal components by limiting limescale damage
- Simple to use — no specialist chemical handling required
These tablets are intended specifically for Hobart and Ecomax hood-type dishwashers and work within the machine's own hygiene cycle. They are not a general-purpose descaler or a substitute for daily cleaning routines — they are a supplement to them. Frequency of use will depend on water hardness in your area and how heavily the machine is used.
If you are unsure how often to run a hygiene programme on your machine, or whether your current cleaning regime is sufficient for your service volume, we are happy to talk it through.
£14.88(£17.86 inc VAT)
Jangro Chlorinated Dishwasher Liquid is a concentrated warewashing detergent formulated for use in commercial dishwashers operating with soft or softened water supplies. The chlorinated formula provides both detergency and sanitisation in a single product, helping kitchens maintain the hygiene standards required in food service environments.
In day-to-day commercial use, the detergent performs consistently across crockery, glassware, and cutlery. The chlorinated formulation supports effective sanitisation at standard wash temperatures, which is particularly relevant in high-turnover operations where throughput demands reliable results cycle after cycle. Because it is designed for soft water systems, operators in areas with naturally soft or chemically softened water will get more predictable performance compared with using a standard formulation outside its intended water chemistry.
Practical benefits for kitchen operations include:
- Chlorinated formula supports sanitisation alongside cleaning in one product
- Concentrated liquid helps manage chemical costs in high-volume sites
- Soft water formulation reduces the risk of residue build-up on washed items
- Compatible with most commercial undercounter and passthrough dishwasher dosing systems
It is worth noting that this product is not suitable for hard water areas. Operators in hard water regions should use a detergent formulated accordingly, and may also need to consider separate scale inhibitor treatments to protect their machine. A rinse aid is still recommended alongside this detergent to achieve spot-free drying results.
This product is well suited to smaller or medium-volume kitchens — cafés, pubs, care homes, and similar operations — where a straightforward, reliable detergent is needed without complex dosing chemistry. Larger high-volume sites processing significant rack volumes per service may find it worth discussing their chemical programme in more detail.
If you are unsure whether this formulation is the right match for your water supply or dishwasher type, the team is happy to help you work through it.
£13.95(£16.74 inc VAT)
This is a 10kg bag of granulated salt formulated for use in the internal water softeners fitted to commercial dishwashers and glasswashers. Its purpose is straightforward: to keep the resin bed inside the softener unit regenerated and working correctly, which in turn reduces the hardness of the water flowing through the machine during the wash cycle.
In hard and medium-hard water areas, limescale is one of the most common causes of warewasher performance decline. Scale builds up on heating elements, spray arms and internal pipework, reducing wash temperature recovery and increasing energy consumption over time. Using the correct granulated salt consistently is one of the simplest ways to protect against this and to maintain wash quality — particularly on glassware, where spotting and streaking are visible signs that the softener is underperforming.
Practical benefits of keeping the softener correctly maintained with the right salt include:
- Cleaner, spot-free results on glassware and crockery during busy service periods
- Reduced limescale accumulation on internal machine components
- Helps protect heating elements and spray arms from scale-related wear
- Lower risk of machine downtime caused by scale blockages
- Supports consistent wash performance across shifts
It is worth noting that this salt is intended for the water softener reservoir, not as a general detergent or rinse aid replacement. The correct quantity and refill frequency will depend on your local water hardness and the specific machine in use — most commercial warewashers indicate when the softener requires topping up. For sites in very hard water areas, more frequent replenishment should be expected.
This product is suitable for any commercial kitchen operation running a dishwasher or glasswasher with an integrated water softener, from small café settings through to high-volume restaurant and pub environments. If you are unsure about your water hardness or the correct salt specification for your machine, we are happy to point you in the right direction.
£93.36(£112.03 inc VAT)
Winterhalter B170XD is a concentrated, neutral rinse aid formulated specifically for use with reusable plastic cups and dishes. Where standard rinse aids can struggle with plastic surfaces, B170XD is designed to accelerate drying and prevent water spotting, leaving items clean, dry, and ready for hygienic stacking directly after the wash cycle.
In busy service environments, proper drying of plastic ware is a practical problem that often gets overlooked. Cups stacked while still damp create hygiene concerns and slow down the restocking process. B170XD addresses this directly — neutralising detergent residues and helping broken-down food soils rinse cleanly away, so plastic items come out of the machine in a usable condition without the need for hand-drying or additional handling.
Key operational advantages include:
- Improved drying performance on plastic surfaces compared to standard rinse aids
- Neutralises detergent residues, reducing spotting and streaking
- Allows clean plastic cups to be hygienically nested and stacked immediately after washing
- Highly concentrated formula, helping to control usage and running costs
- Neutral formulation suitable for regular, high-frequency use
B170XD is part of the Winterhalter chemical system and is intended to be used alongside a compatible Winterhalter warewasher and water treatment solution. Using the full system together is the recommended approach for consistent results — mixing chemicals from different systems can affect wash quality and may not deliver the same drying performance. The 5-litre pack size suits most sites and is straightforward to store and handle.
This product is well suited to venues running high volumes of reusable plastic cups or dishes — festival and events catering, sports venues, educational caterers, and staff restaurants are common applications. If you are unsure whether B170XD is the right chemistry for your warewasher setup, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
£14.18(£17.02 inc VAT)
Rinse aid is a routine but important part of any commercial warewash operation. Its role is straightforward: by reducing the surface tension of water as it drains from crockery, glassware, and utensils at the end of the wash cycle, it helps water sheet off cleanly rather than bead and dry in place. The result is fewer water marks and faster drying times. This Jangro product is a concentrated, low-foaming formulation intended for use in commercial dishwashers and glasswashers, both single-tank and multi-tank machines.
In a working kitchen, rinse aid quality shows most noticeably on glassware. Spots and streaks on glasses going out to a dining room reflect poorly on front-of-house presentation, and in busy service periods there is rarely time to hand-polish every glass. A reliable rinse aid used at the correct dose rate reduces the frequency of this problem and keeps turnaround consistent through a service.
- Low-foaming formula suited to automatic commercial warewash machines
- Concentrated — a small dose per cycle stretches a 5-litre container over a reasonable period
- Helps reduce water spotting on glasses, crockery, and utensils
- Supports faster drying, reducing the need for manual drying or polishing
- Compatible with both single-tank and multi-tank dishwasher and glasswasher types
Dosing should be set via the machine's built-in rinse aid dispenser, with the dose rate adjusted to match local water hardness. In hard water areas — common across much of the UK — a slightly higher dose may be needed to achieve consistent results. Most machines allow straightforward adjustment through the dispenser dial.
This size suits kitchens with moderate to high cover volumes. For very high-throughput operations running multiple machines, larger bulk formats may offer better economy. If you are unsure about dosing, water softener requirements, or compatibility with your current machine, the team is happy to help you work through it.
£27.46(£32.95 inc VAT)
Limescale is a persistent problem in commercial kitchens, particularly in hard water areas. Left untreated, it builds up inside water-fed equipment — urns, kettles, coffee machines, steamer compartments and similar vessels — reducing heating efficiency, extending boil times and, over time, shortening the working life of the equipment. This Jangro descaler is a liquid formulation designed to dissolve limescale deposits from catering machines and vessels, helping restore normal operating performance.
In a busy kitchen environment, the practical impact of scale build-up is easy to underestimate until equipment starts taking noticeably longer to reach temperature or requires more frequent maintenance. Regular descaling as part of a cleaning schedule is a straightforward way to protect equipment investment and keep service running smoothly.
The 5 litre format suits sites that descale multiple pieces of equipment on a routine basis, or where a single-use bottle would be exhausted quickly. It is suitable for use on most water-fed catering appliances where limescale accumulation is a known issue.
- Removes limescale from urns, kettles, coffee machines and similar vessels
- Helps restore heating efficiency in scaled equipment
- Liquid formulation for straightforward application and dilution
- 5 litre format suits regular scheduled descaling across multiple units
- Suitable for hard water areas where scale build-up is frequent
It is worth checking the equipment manufacturer's guidance on descaling frequency and approved cleaning agents before use, as some appliances specify compatible chemical types. If you are unsure which descaler is appropriate for a particular machine, or how to build descaling into a wider warewashing chemical programme, the team is happy to help.
£12.30(£14.76 inc VAT)
Jangro Dishwasher Powder is a concentrated warewashing detergent suitable for use in commercial pass-through and undercounter dishwashers, as well as domestic machines. It is designed to cut through food residues, remove tea and coffee staining, and help slow the accumulation of limescale within the machine over time.
In a busy kitchen environment, consistent wash results matter. A concentrated powder formula means operators can dose accurately per cycle, which helps keep chemical costs predictable and avoids the waste that can come with liquid or gel products. The resealable tub keeps the powder dry and stable between uses, which is a practical consideration in kitchen environments where humidity can degrade open packaging quickly.
Key operational advantages include:
- Concentrated formula supports accurate, economical dosing per cycle
- Effective against tea, coffee, and food staining on crockery and glassware
- Helps reduce limescale accumulation inside the machine over time
- Resealable tub maintains powder quality during storage
- Compatible with commercial undercounter and pass-through dishwashers
It is worth noting that dishwasher powder works best alongside a suitable rinse aid and, in hard water areas, a dedicated water softener or salt. Using detergent alone without rinse aid can lead to streaking and spotting on glassware, which is worth factoring into your chemical programme.
This product is well suited to smaller operations — cafés, pubs, small restaurants, and catering kitchens — where a 2.5kg tub provides a practical stock quantity. Higher-volume sites running continuous wash cycles through the day may find a larger-format product more economical to manage.
If you are putting together a full warewashing chemical programme or are unsure which products work best with your machine, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
£60.63(£72.76 inc VAT)
Winterhalter B2S is an acidic-base rinse aid formulated specifically for use in professional warewashing machines. It is designed to neutralise alkaline detergent residues left on surfaces after the wash cycle, and to assist in rinsing away broken-down food soils, leaving dishes and glassware clean and dry at the end of the cycle.
In hard water areas, limescale deposits and mineral streaking are a common problem with commercial warewashers. The acidic formulation of B2S helps counter the effects of hard water on washed items, reducing spotting and improving drying performance on both plastic and stainless steel surfaces. This makes it a practical choice for kitchens in regions where water hardness is a known issue.
Using a rinse aid alongside your detergent is not optional in serious commercial warewashing — detergent alone cannot achieve the surface tension reduction needed for effective draining and drying. The practical advantages of using B2S as part of a consistent chemical programme include:
- Improved drying results on dishes, trays, and glassware
- Reduced spotting and streaking caused by hard water minerals
- Neutralisation of detergent residues that can affect food safety
- Suitable for use on both plastic and stainless steel wares
- Formulated for use in professional dosing systems on commercial machines
B2S is intended for use in commercial warewashing machines with an automatic rinse aid dosing system. It works as part of the broader Winterhalter chemical programme alongside a compatible detergent and, where applicable, water treatment. Using matched chemistry helps ensure consistent results and avoids compatibility issues between products.
This product is well suited to kitchens running Winterhalter warewashers, particularly in hard water areas, and for operations washing a mix of plastic and stainless steel items regularly. If you are unsure which rinse aid is appropriate for your machine type or water conditions, the team is happy to help you choose correctly.
£17.99(£21.59 inc VAT)
ChemEco Dishwasher Detergent is a strong alkaline warewash detergent formulated to an ecological specification. It contains no NTA, phosphates, phosphonates, or chlorine, making it a practical choice for operators who need effective cleaning results alongside a reduced environmental impact.
In day-to-day commercial use, it performs consistently across varying water hardness conditions, which is a practical consideration in areas with hard mains water where residue and spotting can otherwise be a persistent issue. It is suitable for use in both single-tank pass-through dishwashers and larger tunnel warewashers, so it fits a range of kitchen sizes and service volumes.
- Free from phosphates, phosphonates, chlorine, and NTA
- Effective in both hard and soft water conditions
- Compatible with single-tank and tunnel commercial dishwashers
- Strong alkaline formulation for reliable soil removal
- Supplied in a 5-litre container for easy storage and handling
The 5-litre format is well suited to smaller and mid-sized operations where storage space is limited, or as part of a regular rotation in busier sites. As with any warewash chemical, correct dilution and machine dosing calibration will directly affect both cleaning performance and running costs, so it is worth confirming compatibility with your machine manufacturer's guidelines.
If you are unsure whether this detergent is the right fit for your warewasher or water conditions, the team is happy to point you in the right direction.
£17.89(£21.47 inc VAT)
Greenspeed All-in-One Dishwasher Tablets are a plant-based warewashing consumable designed to clean, rinse, and soften water in a single dose. Each tablet combines detergent, rinse aid, and salt agents, removing the need to stock and manage three separate products alongside your machine.
In a commercial environment, consistent chemical dosing matters. These tablets offer a straightforward way to standardise what goes into the machine each cycle, which suits operations where multiple staff members are responsible for loading and running the dishwasher. Because each tablet is pre-dosed, there is no risk of under- or over-dosing that can occur with liquid or powder products dispensed manually.
The plant-based formula avoids some of the more aggressive chemical components found in conventional warewashing products, which can be a consideration for operators with sustainability commitments or where chemical storage and handling procedures are tightly managed.
- Combined detergent, rinse aid and salt in a single tablet
- Plant-based formula, free from harsh synthetic chemicals
- Pre-measured dose eliminates guesswork and staff error
- Suitable for general crockery, glassware, and light utensil washing
- Compact packaging makes storage and stock rotation straightforward
It is worth noting that all-in-one tablet formats are best suited to machines without dedicated chemical dosing pumps, and may not be appropriate for every commercial dishwasher model. If your machine is set up for separate liquid detergent and rinse aid systems, a tablet format may not integrate as intended. If you are unsure whether this format is compatible with your equipment, we are happy to help you work through the options.
£12.54(£15.05 inc VAT)
This is a 10kg bag of tablet-form regeneration salt from Salt of the Earth, intended for use in the built-in water softeners found in commercial dishwashers and glasswashers. The softener unit draws on this salt to exchange calcium and magnesium ions from the incoming water supply, reducing its hardness before it enters the wash chamber. Without regular replenishment, the softener stops working and hard water passes directly through the machine.
In areas with moderate to high water hardness — which covers a significant portion of England — limescale accumulates on heating elements, spray arms, pumps, and internal pipework. Left unchecked, this reduces wash performance, increases energy consumption as scale-coated elements work harder to heat water, and shortens equipment life. Keeping the salt reservoir topped up is one of the most straightforward and cost-effective pieces of routine maintenance an operator can carry out.
Tablet-form salt is the preferred format for most commercial applications. Compared to granular salt, tablets are easier to handle, produce less mess when filling the reservoir, and dissolve at a more controlled rate, which reduces the risk of undissolved salt accumulating at the base of the softener chamber.
- Tablet format dissolves evenly, reducing residue in the softener chamber
- Compact tablets are easier to handle and less likely to spill during filling
- Suitable for the built-in softeners in most commercial dishwashers and glasswashers
- Helps protect heating elements, pumps, and spray arms from limescale build-up
- Regular use supports consistent wash and rinse results over time
The frequency of refilling will depend on your local water hardness, the machine's salt consumption setting, and how many cycles you run each day. Most machines have an indicator light for low salt, but it is worth building a salt check into your daily opening routine regardless. A 10kg bag is a practical stock quantity for most busy sites, though higher-volume operations may want to keep two or three bags in reserve.
If you are unsure which salt format your machine recommends, or whether your site would benefit from an inline water softener upstream of your warewashing equipment, our team is happy to advise.
£20.14(£24.17 inc VAT)
Jangro Dishwasher Liquid Detergent is a low-foaming warewashing detergent formulated for use in commercial dishwashers and glasswashers. It is designed to remove food deposits and general soiling from cutlery, crockery, glassware, stainless steel cookware, and utensils, and performs reliably in both hard and soft water areas without adjustment.
In a busy kitchen environment, consistent wash results matter. This detergent maintains effective cleaning performance across repeated cycles, which is particularly useful during high-turnover service periods when machines are running continuously. The low-foaming formula is appropriate for the mechanical action of commercial warewashing machines, where excess foam can interfere with wash performance.
A few practical points worth noting:
- Low-foaming formula suited to commercial dishwashers and glasswashers
- Effective across hard and soft water areas without reformulation
- Anti-corrosive agent included to help protect machine internals
- Removes food deposits and soiling from a wide range of warewashing loads
- Supplied in a 5-litre format suitable for regular operational use
The 5-litre container is a practical size for most kitchens using a standard undercounter or passthrough machine. Higher-volume operations running larger rack or flight machines may find larger format supplies more economical. As with all warewashing chemicals, correct dosing is important — underdosing affects wash quality, and overdosing increases running costs without improving results. Always follow the manufacturer's dosing guidance for your specific machine.
This detergent is well suited to small restaurants, cafés, pubs, and contract catering operations running commercial dishwashers or glasswashers. It is a straightforward, dependable product for day-to-day warewashing.
If you are setting up a new warewashing station or reviewing your chemical programme, our team is happy to talk through what works best for your machine type and water conditions.
£96.24(£115.49 inc VAT)
Winterhalter F30 is a concentrated liquid detergent formulated specifically for commercial glasswashing. Unlike general-purpose warewasher detergents, it is developed with glassware in mind — including stemware, decorated glasses, and plastic items that can be vulnerable to the harsher chemistry used in standard dishwasher programmes.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, glassware takes a relentless battering through service. Repeated wash cycles with unsuitable chemistry gradually cloud glass, erode decorative finishes, and leave lipstick or greasy residues that are difficult to shift without abrasive cleaning. F30 addresses this directly: its gentle but effective formula removes lipstick and oily residues reliably without accelerating glass corrosion or fading printed or etched decoration. The odour-neutral formulation also avoids any taint carry-over that could affect drinks service.
Practical advantages for operators include:
- Highly concentrated formula reduces consumption per cycle
- Protects decorated and printed glassware through repeated wash cycles
- Removes lipstick and greasy residues without aggressive chemistry
- Odour-neutral — no taint risk to glassware used in drinks service
- Suitable for plastic as well as glass items
F30 is compatible with commercial warewashers generally, though Winterhalter recommends pairing it with their own glasswasher systems alongside the corresponding rinse aid and water treatment for optimum results. If your site uses hard water, water treatment becomes particularly relevant — detergent performance and glass clarity are both affected by water quality, and using F30 in isolation without addressing water hardness may limit results.
This product is well suited to pubs, bars, hotels, and restaurants where glassware presentation matters and high cycle volumes put glass at risk of corrosion or residue build-up. The 9.3 litre container is a practical working size for most sites, though usage rate will vary depending on machine dosing settings and wash volume.
If you are unsure whether F30 is the right detergent for your machine and water conditions, or want to understand how to get the best out of your glasswashing setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
£19.70(£23.64 inc VAT)
Jangro's 5-in-1 dishwasher capsules are a combined warewashing tablet that delivers detergent, water softener, rinse aid, glass protector, and a shine compound in a single pre-dosed unit. Each capsule is designed to release the correct amount of each component per wash cycle, removing the need to dose multiple products separately.
In day-to-day operation, the pre-measured format helps keep results consistent across staff changes and busy service periods, reducing the variability that comes with manual dosing. The detergent element works on dried-on and baked-on food residue, while the built-in rinse aid and shine compound aim to leave crockery and glassware clear without a secondary rinse product being required.
The practical advantages of the capsule format in a commercial setting include:
- No separate detergent, rinse aid, or salt dispensers to manage or refill
- Pre-dosed format reduces product waste from over-dosing
- Built-in water softener helps limit limescale build-up in hard water areas
- Glass protector helps reduce the clouding and etching that can affect glassware over time
- Straightforward for staff to use consistently without training
These capsules are suited to lighter-volume commercial dishwasher use — smaller operations such as cafés, staff canteens, or hospitality businesses running a single under-counter or countertop machine. For higher-volume sites or operations running continuous dishwashers and glasswashers through full service periods, a liquid or powder dosing system with a dedicated dispenser pump may offer better cost-in-use and dosage control.
If you are unsure whether capsules are the right format for your volume of covers or machine type, the team is happy to talk through the options.
£20.98(£25.18 inc VAT)
Dishwasher salt is a straightforward but important consumable in any commercial warewash setup. This 10kg pack from Greenspeed contains high-purity granules formulated for use in the water softener units built into commercial dishwashers and glasswashers. The salt regenerates the ion-exchange resin inside the softener, drawing calcium and magnesium out of the incoming water supply before it reaches the wash chamber.
In hard and medium-hard water areas — which covers a significant portion of the UK — running a warewasher without adequate salt leads to gradual limescale accumulation on internal components, heating elements, spray arms, and wash chamber walls. Over time this reduces wash performance, increases energy consumption as heating elements work harder, and shortens the working life of the machine. Regular use of the correct granule salt is one of the more cost-effective forms of preventative maintenance available to any kitchen.
Beyond machine protection, keeping the softener topped up has a direct effect on results. Softened water produces noticeably cleaner, spot-free glassware and crockery — important in any front-of-house operation where presentation matters. It also allows rinse aid to work more effectively, reducing the chemical volumes needed to achieve a clean finish.
This product is suited to any commercial operation running a dishwasher or glasswasher with an integrated water softener — from small cafés and bars through to high-volume restaurant and hospitality kitchens. It is worth checking your machine's salt reservoir capacity and service volume to judge how frequently you will need to reorder; busier sites in hard water areas will typically run through salt faster.
If you are unsure whether your machine requires granule salt or have questions about water hardness in your area, the team is happy to help you work that out.

Water softener salt is a routine consumable for any commercial dishwasher or glasswasher operating in a hard or moderately hard water area. Most warewashing machines include a built-in ion exchange softener unit that requires regular replenishment with granular salt to function correctly. Without it, the softener stops working and untreated hard water passes through the machine, gradually depositing limescale on heating elements, spray arms, pumps, and seals.
In commercial kitchen environments, the consequences of neglecting softener salt are practical rather than theoretical. Scaled heating elements take longer to reach operating temperature, recovery between cycles slows, wash and rinse results deteriorate, and left unchecked, the damage can shorten the working life of equipment that represents a significant capital investment. Keeping the salt reservoir topped up is one of the simplest and lowest-cost forms of preventative maintenance available to an operator.
This granular format is well suited to the built-in softener units found in the majority of undercounter and pass-through dishwashers and glasswashers. The granules are free-flowing, which makes dosing straightforward, and they dissolve evenly without clumping or leaving residue that could block the softener chamber.
- Replenishes built-in ion exchange softeners in dishwashers and glasswashers
- Free-flowing granules for easy, consistent dosing
- Dissolves evenly without blocking the softener chamber
- Helps maintain wash and rinse performance in hard water areas
- Supports longer equipment service life by reducing limescale accumulation
The 2kg pack is practical for smaller operations or as a top-up purchase. Sites running multiple machines or operating in areas with particularly hard water will typically get through salt more quickly and may find a larger pack size more economical to stock.
If you are unsure which salt or chemical programme is appropriate for your machines or water supply, we are happy to talk it through.
£19.73(£23.68 inc VAT)
These water soluble sachets from PVA Hygiene are a pre-measured dishwash detergent designed for use in commercial machine dishwashers. Each sachet dissolves fully in the wash cycle, releasing a detergent powder formulated to clean crockery, cutlery, glassware and cooking utensils. There is no loose powder to measure or decant — the sachet goes in as-is and the wrapper dissolves completely, leaving no residue.
The detergent is built around biodegradable surfactants and chelating agents that break down food soiling and prevent limescale deposits forming on the wash chamber and on ware. A built-in drying aid component helps water sheet off surfaces cleanly, reducing the need for manual polishing and leaving glassware and crockery streak-free after the cycle.
For busy operations, the pre-measured format removes the guesswork from dosing. Over- or under-dosing is a common cause of poor wash results and wasted chemical spend, so sachets offer a practical advantage in kitchens where multiple staff are responsible for loading and running the machine. Each pack contains 50 sachets, giving 50 complete wash doses.
- No measuring — each sachet is a single, pre-dosed wash
- Water soluble wrapper dissolves fully — no wrapper waste in the machine
- Suitable for crockery, cutlery, glassware and cooking utensils
- Biodegradable surfactant base with scale-inhibiting chelates
- Built-in drying aid for streak-free results
These sachets are well suited to small to medium-sized operations running a under-counter or pass-through dishwasher. For very high-volume sites running continuous or rack conveyor machines, a liquid dosing system connected directly to the machine's chemical inlet is often the more practical route. If you are unsure which warewash chemical format suits your machine and service pattern, the team is happy to advise.
£29.62(£35.54 inc VAT)
Water softener salt in tablet form is a routine consumable for any commercial kitchen operating a dishwasher or glasswasher in a hard water area. These tablets are used either directly in the salt reservoir of the machine or fed into a dedicated inline water softener unit, depending on your setup. Their purpose is to regenerate the ion exchange resin that removes calcium and magnesium from the incoming water supply — the minerals responsible for limescale accumulation inside your equipment.
In hard water regions, limescale is one of the most common causes of premature warewasher failure. It restricts spray arm flow, coats heating elements, clogs pumps, and forces machines to work harder to reach and hold wash temperatures. Regular use of the correct salt is one of the simplest and most cost-effective ways to extend the working life of your warewashing equipment and keep it running efficiently through a busy service.
Tablet-form salt offers a practical handling advantage over granular alternatives. The compacted tablets are easier to pour without spillage, dissolve more evenly within the softener chamber, and are less likely to bridge or clump in the reservoir — all of which reduces the risk of inconsistent softening performance between refills.
- Helps prevent limescale accumulation in wash tanks, heating elements, and spray arms
- Tablet form dissolves evenly, reducing the risk of salt bridging in the reservoir
- Cleaner rinse results in hard water areas, improving glass and crockery finish
- Supports consistent machine performance and helps reduce maintenance frequency
- 25kg bag suits regular bulk replenishment in busy kitchen environments
This salt is suitable for most commercial dishwashers and glasswashers fitted with an internal salt reservoir, as well as standalone water softener units plumbed into the warewashing supply line. It is worth confirming with your machine manufacturer or service engineer which salt form — tablet or granular — is recommended for your specific model, as some units specify one over the other.
If you are unsure whether your site requires a dedicated inline softener or whether in-machine salt alone is sufficient for your water hardness level, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
£24.52(£29.42 inc VAT)
Jangro Premium Dishwasher Liquid Detergent is a concentrated liquid formulation designed for use in commercial dishwashers and glasswashers. It works through the machine's detergent dosing system to break down grease, food residue, and general soiling on crockery, cutlery, glassware, and stainless steel utensils during normal wash cycles.
In a busy service environment, consistent wash results matter. This detergent is formulated to remain effective in both hard and soft water conditions, which is a practical consideration for kitchens across different regions of the UK where water hardness varies considerably. The formula includes an anti-corrosive agent, which helps protect machine components and internal pipework from the gradual degradation that can occur with repeated exposure to harsh cleaning chemistry.
For day-to-day operational use, the main advantages are straightforward:
- Effective on stubborn soiling including grease and dried food residue
- Suitable for use with most commercial dishwasher and glasswasher types
- Works reliably in hard and soft water areas without reformulation
- Anti-corrosive agent helps extend machine service life
- Liquid format doses cleanly through standard auto-dosing systems
The 5 litre container is a practical size for smaller operations or as part of a managed chemical stock rotation. Higher-volume sites running continuous wash programmes through the day may find it more economical to move to a larger format container.
As with all warewashing chemicals, correct dosing is important — overdosing increases cost without improving results, and underdosing leads to poor wash quality. If you are setting up a new machine or reviewing your current chemical programme, the team is happy to advise on compatibility and dosing guidance.
£22.28(£26.74 inc VAT)
Jangro Glass Renovating Liquid is a concentrated warewashing chemical designed to remove stubborn deposits from commercial glassware that routine glasswasher detergents leave behind. Bloom, protein build-up, and beer residue are common problems in any busy bar or restaurant, and standard wash cycles rarely shift them once they have set. This product is formulated specifically to address that.
In practice, it is most commonly used as an occasional treatment rather than a primary daily detergent — run through an automatic glasswasher or dishwasher when glassware is showing signs of cloudiness or staining that has built up over time. The low-foaming formula means it works within the machine's normal operating cycle without causing overflow or residue issues.
For front-of-house operations where glass presentation matters, having a reliable renovating liquid available is straightforward housekeeping. Key operational benefits include:
- Removes beer residue and protein deposits that routine detergents cannot clear
- Reduces cloudiness and bloom, restoring clarity to stained glassware
- Low-foaming formula suited to automatic glasswashers and dishwashers
- Concentrated formulation, so a measured dose goes a reasonable distance
- Helps reduce the need for manual scrubbing or early glass replacement
It is worth following your machine manufacturer's dosing guidance and adjusting for local water hardness. Hard water areas tend to see bloom develop more quickly, so the frequency of use will vary by site. The 5-litre size suits regular commercial use without constant reordering.
If you are unsure whether this product suits your glasswasher setup or water conditions, our team is happy to talk it through before you order.
£5.68(£6.82 inc VAT)

The concentrated formula produces a stable, long-lasting foam that cuts through grease and food residue on pots, pans, utensils, and general kitchenware. Because less product is needed per wash, a single litre typically lasts longer than a standard-strength detergent of the same volume — a practical consideration when managing consumables costs across a week's service.
- Concentrated formula reduces the amount needed per wash
- Long-lasting foam aids effective manual dishwashing
- Suitable for pots, pans, utensils, and general kitchen items
- Supplied in a practical 1-litre plastic bottle
This size is well suited to smaller operations, back-bar prep areas, or as a supplementary supply alongside an existing warewasher setup. Kitchens with higher-volume manual washing requirements may find it more cost-effective to consider larger pack formats.
If you're reviewing your overall warewash setup — chemicals, dosing, or equipment — the team is happy to help you work through what suits your operation best.
£27.23(£32.68 inc VAT)
Bryta Washing Up Liquid is a concentrated manual detergent designed for hand-wash sinks and pot wash stations in commercial kitchens. This listing supplies two 5-litre containers, giving a practical stock quantity for sites that go through liquid detergent regularly.
Because it is concentrated, a small measure goes a long way, which helps control detergent costs over time. It cuts through grease and food residue effectively on pots, pans, utensils, and service equipment that is washed by hand rather than through a dishwasher or glasswasher.
- Concentrated formula reduces the volume of detergent used per wash
- Suitable for grease-heavy pot wash environments
- Practical twin-pack reduces how often stock needs replenishing
- Compatible with standard commercial pot wash and hand-wash sinks
No special installation is required. The containers are straightforward to store alongside other cleaning chemicals, subject to your site's COSHH storage requirements. At just over 10kg for the pair, the pack is manageable to move and shelf-store in a dry goods or chemical store.
This product is well suited to cafés, pub kitchens, small restaurants, and any site relying on manual washing alongside or instead of a mechanical warewasher. For very high-volume kitchens with a dedicated pot wash operative working continuously through service, it is worth considering larger bulk formats to reduce handling frequency.
If you are unsure which detergents or quantities suit your kitchen's workload, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
£18.66(£22.39 inc VAT)
Cleenol's washing up liquid concentrate is formulated for commercial manual dishwashing rather than domestic use. The higher active content means a small amount goes a long way in a busy pot wash or preparation sink, making it a practical choice for kitchens where manual washing forms part of the daily routine alongside or in place of a glasswasher or dishwasher.
In a working kitchen environment, the concentrate performs well on grease, food residue, and general soiling without requiring excessive product to maintain an effective wash solution. The green-tinted formula is a useful visual indicator when diluting into a sink, helping pot wash staff maintain a consistent working solution rather than overdosing.
- Highly concentrated formula reduces the volume of product needed per wash session
- Effective on grease and general food soiling common in commercial kitchens
- Supplied as a twin pack, reducing order frequency for busy sites
- Suitable for use in large industrial wash sinks as well as standard pot wash stations
- Cost-effective on a per-use basis compared with standard retail-grade detergents
As a manual washing product, this is best suited to kitchens where hand dishwashing is a regular part of operations — smaller independents, cafés, pub kitchens, or sites where a machine washer handles crockery but pots, trays, and utensils are washed by hand. It is not intended for use in automatic dishwashers or glasswashers, which require purpose-formulated machine detergents.
If you're stocking up on warewash chemicals and want to make sure you're using the right products across your manual and machine washing setup, we're happy to point you in the right direction.
£22.31(£26.77 inc VAT)
Ecover's Lemon and Aloe Vera Washing Up Liquid is a plant-based concentrate formulated for hand-washing crockery, glassware, and kitchen utensils. The 5-litre container is a practical size for catering environments where a bulk supply is preferable to frequent smaller purchases.
The concentrate formula means a small dose goes a fair distance, which helps keep day-to-day running costs in check. It produces a controlled level of foam — enough to work effectively without the excessive suds that slow down rinsing and extend the time spent at the sink. The aloe vera content is gentle on skin, which is a practical consideration for kitchen staff working through busy service periods with repeated hand contact.
- Biodegradable formulation — suitable for sites with septic tanks
- Low-foaming concentrate reduces rinsing time at the sink
- Gentle on skin during prolonged use
- Lemon fragrance leaves crockery and glassware smelling clean
- 5-litre volume reduces packaging waste versus multiple smaller bottles
This product is suited to hand-washing use only and is not intended for use in commercial dishwashers or glasswashers, which require dedicated machine detergents. It is best suited to smaller operations — cafés, B&Bs, small restaurants, or back-of-house prep areas — where a proportion of washing is done by hand. Higher-volume sites with heavy warewash throughput are generally better served by a commercial dishwasher chemical programme.
If you're putting together a cleaning and warewash supplies order and want to make sure you're choosing the right products for your setup, the team is happy to help.
£24.44(£29.33 inc VAT)
Deepio Professional is a concentrated washing-up liquid produced by P&G Professional and formulated specifically for commercial kitchen use. It is designed for manual dishwashing of pots, pans, plates, utensils, and cutlery where grease and baked-on residue are a routine challenge rather than an occasional one.
In a busy kitchen environment, a washing-up liquid needs to work efficiently without requiring excessive product per wash. Deepio's concentrated formula means a small amount goes a reasonable way, which matters when a kitchen porter is working through a full pot-wash station during a busy service. The product cuts through grease effectively without needing prolonged soaking, which helps maintain throughput at the sink.
From a practical standpoint, this product offers a number of straightforward operational advantages:
- Concentrated formula helps manage product consumption and cost per wash
- Effective on heavy grease, suitable for pots, pans, and baked-on residue
- Safe for use on food contact surfaces
- Compatible with HACCP-based cleaning protocols
- Supplied as two 5-litre containers, reducing reorder frequency
