Dish – Alkaline

Alkaline pH 9–11. triggers saponification of fats and oils before scrubbing begins — the chemistry reduces labour time per cover in high-volume kitchen operations.

Anionic + non-ionic surfactant blend. rapid grease emulsification across cookware, crockery, utensils, and serving equipment regardless of food type or soil level.

1:4 dilution. one 5L yields 20 litres — precise, auditable dosing for institutional kitchen cost management and procurement planning.

Controlled low-foam profile. compatible with machine-assisted washing operations without overflow or additional antifoam additive requirement.

Hard water stable. maintains full surfactant performance in facilities supplied with water above 500 ppm TDS — the standard across most Indian cities.

What is saponification, and why does alkaline pH reduce dishwashing labour in high-volume kitchens?
Saponification is a chemical reaction between a fat or oil (a triglyceride) and an alkali that produces glycerol and fatty acid salts — compounds that are water-soluble and surface-active.

Dilution Add 250 ml of concentrate to 1 litre of water (1:4 ratio) in a wash basin or machine reservoir.

One 5-litre concentrate. Twenty litres of working detergent.

One kitchen that runs on schedule. At 1:4 dilution, a single 5L pack yields 20 litres of working detergent — enough for a kitchen running 500 covers per day with 3 wash basin changes per service for approximately 10–12 days of continuous operation.

The saponification mechanism reduces average scrubbing time per item, translating a chemical cost into a measurable labour efficiency gain at scale. For hospital dietary departments and educational institutional kitchens operating under FSSAI food safety guidelines, the documented dilution protocol and ingredient transparency of this concentrate support audit trail requirements for cleaning chemical management.

• Alkaline concentrate.
• Avoid prolonged contact with skin and eyes.
• In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with copious clean water for 15 minutes.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Not suitable for use on anodised aluminium surfaces — extended contact causes surface degradation.
• Store in original sealed container below 30°C, away from direct sunlight and incompatible materials.
• Keep container closed when not in use.
• Do not store in metal containers.
• Shelf life 24 months from manufacture date, unopened.
