How it is used
The super concentrate is diluted 1:4 with clean water to make the finished product. In use: diluted further to the rate on the technical data sheet, applied by wash plant or sprayer, then rinsed. The exact rate and method are set out on the technical data sheet supplied with the product.
Why buy it as super concentrate
Our concentrates are high-performance formulations, not basic cleaners. At 1:4, one IBC makes five IBCs of the finished product, the same premium product you would otherwise ship ready-made. You ship, store and handle a fifth of the volume, then dilute with clean water and fill under your own brand, or buy it finished from us. Less water shipped means less fuel, fewer pallets and less packaging per litre sold.
Important information
Fleet operators often specify approved products. Send us your specification and we will confirm compatibility before you order.
Export and worldwide supply
We export alkaline train and bus wash as concentrate, so you ship a fifth of the finished volume. One IBC of concentrate makes five IBCs of finished product at 1:4: you add clean local water, fill under your own brand and sell into your market, without paying freight and duty on water.
