Concentrated cleaning products such as Assindia's high concentrates are becoming increasingly popular due to their efficiency and environmental friendliness. They offer numerous advantages over conventional cleaners, from cost savings to better environmental impact. In this guide, we'll look at the key benefits of concentrated cleaning products and how you can make the most of them.
1. What are concentrated cleaning agents?
Concentrated cleaners are products that come in high concentrations and must be diluted before use. These products contain a higher amount of active ingredients compared to ready-to-use cleaners that are ready to use. Dilution is usually done with water or another solvent.
2. Benefits of concentrated cleaning agents
2.1. Cost savings
Concentrated cleaning products offer significant cost advantages. Because these products are highly concentrated, you only need small amounts to clean large areas. This reduces the amount of product you need to buy and lowers your cleaning costs in the long run.
-
Cheaper price per application: One liter of concentrated cleaner, once diluted, can be enough for many applications. In comparison, you often need more of ready-to-use cleaners for the same area, resulting in higher costs.
-
Less packaging waste: Because concentrated cleaning products are sold in larger packaging units, less packaging material is generated, which is more environmentally friendly and also helps to save costs.
2.2. Environmental friendliness
Concentrated cleaning products are more environmentally friendly than their ready-to-use counterparts for several reasons:
-
Reduced transport costs: Since concentrated cleaning agents contain less water, the weight of the packaging is reduced. This reduces energy consumption and CO2 emissions generated when transporting the products.
-
Less packaging material: The packaging of concentrated cleaning products is often smaller and requires less material, which leads to a reduction in waste.
-
Fewer chemicals: Because concentrated cleaning products are diluted during use, the amount of chemicals released into the environment is often lower.
2.3. Effectiveness and performance
Concentrated cleaning products often offer greater cleaning performance than ready-to-use products. This is due to the higher concentration of active ingredients that can more effectively remove dirt, stains and germs.
-
Stronger effect: Due to the high concentration of active ingredients, concentrated cleaning agents can remove even stubborn dirt and stains more effectively.
-
Customizable Dosage: You can adjust the concentration of the solution to suit your specific cleaning needs. For particularly stubborn stains, you can use a stronger solution, while a weaker solution will suffice for lighter cleaning tasks.
2.4. Versatility
Concentrated cleaning agents are often versatile and can be used for different cleaning tasks depending on the degree of dilution.
-
Wide range of applications: Many concentrated cleaners can be used on a variety of surfaces, including floors, walls, windows and upholstery.
-
Flexibility in use: The ability to adjust the concentration makes concentrated cleaning products particularly flexible. You can use them for everything from deep cleaning to daily care.
3. Use of concentrated cleaning agents
3.1. Dilution instructions
Pay attention to the manufacturer's dilution instructions. Too little dilution can lead to a reduced cleaning effect, while too much dilution can impair the cleaning performance.
-
Read the instructions: Most manufacturers provide precise dilution instructions. Follow these instructions for best results.
-
Test the solution: Before applying to large areas, it is advisable to test the diluted solution on an inconspicuous area to ensure that it does not cause damage.
3.2. Dosage
Dispense the correct amount of concentrated cleaning agent for your application. Use measuring cups or dosing aids to ensure precise dosing.
-
Use appropriate measuring instruments: To facilitate dosing, use measuring cups or dosing pump systems that allow for precise mixing.
-
Adjust as needed: If necessary, adjust the dosage according to the type and degree of soiling. More severe soiling may require a higher concentration.
4. Tips for use and storage
4.1. Safety instructions
When working with concentrated cleaning agents, wear protective gloves and, if necessary, safety goggles, especially when working with highly concentrated solutions.
-
Avoid skin contact: Concentrated cleaning products can cause skin irritation. Avoid direct contact and wash your hands thoroughly after use.
-
Ensure ventilation: Use concentrated cleaning products in well-ventilated areas to minimize inhalation of vapors.
4.2. Storage
Store concentrated cleaning products in a cool, dry place and out of the reach of children and animals.
-
Proper storage conditions: Make sure containers are tightly closed to prevent moisture from entering and evaporating ingredients.
-
Pay attention to expiration dates: Pay attention to the expiration dates on the packaging and use the cleaning products within the recommended time period.
Conclusion
Concentrated cleaning products offer a variety of benefits, including cost savings, environmental friendliness and high cleaning performance. Their versatile application and ability to adjust concentration make them an efficient and sustainable choice for cleaning. By following the correct dilution and dosing instructions, you can achieve the best results while reducing your environmental footprint.
