Winterhalter A12TK is an active chlorine-based tannin remover powder formulated to break down the stubborn staining that builds up on glasses and crockery in high-throughput commercial warewashing operations. Tea and coffee tannins are among the most persistent residues in a busy kitchen or café environment, and standard detergents often fail to fully clear them over time. A12TK is designed specifically to address this.

In practice, it performs well against dried-on discolouration on glassware, cups, and porcelain — the kind of grey or brown staining that accumulates during a long service and dulls the appearance of otherwise clean items. Beyond cosmetic results, it also helps remove yeast and other organic beverage residues, supporting hygienic cleaning standards in operations where glassware is turned around at pace.

A12TK is compatible with glass, porcelain, plastic, and stainless steel, making it a practical option across a broad range of front-of-house and back-of-house ware. It is also suitable for use as part of a periodic hygiene clean of the dishwasher cabinet itself, helping to maintain machine performance alongside regular detergent use.

  • Tackles tannin staining that routine detergents leave behind
  • Supports hygienic cleaning of both ware and the dishwasher interior
  • Suitable for a wide range of materials including glass and porcelain
  • Works within Winterhalter warewashing systems as part of a complete chemical programme

Winterhalter recommend using A12TK alongside their corresponding detergents, rinse aids, and water treatments for best results — it is intended as a targeted addition to an existing chemical regime rather than a standalone solution.

If you are unsure whether this product fits your current warewashing setup or chemical programme, we are happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Can A12TK be used in any commercial dishwasher, or only Winterhalter machines?

Winterhalter formulate A12TK for use within their own warewashing systems, where it works alongside their detergents, rinse aids, and water treatments. While the product may be compatible with other commercial dishwashers, performance will be most reliable when used as part of the Winterhalter chemical programme it was designed for.

How often should A12TK be used in a busy operation?

It is typically used as a targeted treatment rather than a daily detergent — most operators bring it in when tannin staining becomes noticeable on glassware or cups, or as part of a scheduled deep-clean routine for the dishwasher. The right frequency will depend on your menu and throughput; sites serving high volumes of tea and coffee will likely need it more regularly.

Is A12TK safe to use on all types of commercial glassware?

It is formulated for use on glass, porcelain, plastic, and stainless steel, which covers the majority of commercial ware. If you are using specialist coated or decorated items, it is worth checking compatibility before routine use, as active chlorine products can affect certain finishes over time.
