Description
Highlights—
Fast-evaporating solvent system. physically pulls surfactant residue off the glass surface as it evaporates — the streak cannot form because the chemistry is designed to leave nothing behind.
Neutral pH. safe on all standard glass, mirror, chrome fixture, and acrylic panel surfaces without surface chemistry risk.
45 ml per litre dilution. one 5L concentrate fills 110+ litres of working solution — a 70–80% cost reduction versus equivalent ready-to-use products at institutional volume.
Single-pass clean. consistent streak-free results regardless of operator experience level — critical in institutional environments with rotating housekeeping teams.
Automated equipment compatible. suitable for spray application, microfibre wipe systems, and automated window-cleaning equipment deployed in multi-storey institutional buildings.
The chemistry—
Why do glass cleaners streak, and how does solvent-to-water ratio solve the problem? Glass cleaning streaks are not caused by dirt — they are caused by the residual surfactant film left on the glass surface when the water carrier evaporates before wiping is complete. When a surfactant-in-water solution is applied to glass and the water evaporates faster than the operator can wipe, the surfactant compounds concentrate at the evaporation boundary and deposit as a thin, optically visible film. This is the streak.
The solution is not removing the surfactant — it is controlling the evaporation sequence. A fast-evaporating organic solvent added to the formulation at a precise ratio evaporates from the glass surface more rapidly than water while physically carrying the surfactant molecules with it in solution. As the solvent front recedes, it takes the surfactant with it rather than leaving it deposited on the glass. The glass surface is left clean and dry before optical deposition can occur.
The ratio is critical: too little solvent and the water evaporation dominates, leaving surfactant residue. Too much solvent and the formulation evaporates before it has performed the cleaning function. The 45 ml per litre dilution of this concentrate is calibrated to deliver the correct solvent-to-water ratio in working solution — a ratio that produces streak-free results across standard institutional glass cleaning speeds and ambient temperatures. This is why industrial-grade glass cleaners outperform consumer spray products on large glass surfaces: the formulation engineering is more precise.
Did you know—
Most streaks on glass aren’t from dirt — they’re from the thin surfactant film left behind when a cleaner doesn’t evaporate fast enough before wiping. The solvent-to-water ratio in the formulation is precision-engineered. Getting it wrong by 5% produces streaks on every surface, every time. Getting it right means one wipe and done.
Application & usage—
Preparation. Dilute 45 ml of concentrate per litre of clean water in a spray bottle.
Usage economy—
45 ml per litre.
One 5-litre pack. 110 litres of working solution. 220 spray bottles filled.
At 45 ml per litre, a single 5L concentrate fills over 110 litres of working glass cleaner — enough to refill a 500 ml spray bottle 220 times. For a hospital or educational campus with 200 glass surfaces cleaned daily, one pack covers approximately 3 weeks of full-facility glass maintenance. Versus ready-to-use glass cleaner at equivalent volume, the concentrate format delivers a 70–80% reduction in per-litre cost and a 95% reduction in packaging volume.
