KNOWLEDGE BASE AND DATA
Cleaning Chemicals including Hand Sanitiser:
We create our own environment, so we get exactly what we deserve. Chemicals are needed for a variety of reasons, but it is our responsibility to ensure that we don’t damage our surroundings.
Keep in mind, your co-workers are all covered with germs. It’s not mean, it’s just the simple truth of the matter.
The typical office is a cesspool for all kinds of harmful bacteria and that’s why it’s smart to keep hand sanitiser around at all times!

Steps to Cleaning
Important cleaning parameters when using hand sanitiser and cleaning chemicals:
Understanding
- Understand the type of soiling (example oil)
- Understand the type of surface (porous, hard)
Actions that follow
- Concentration
- Foaming / non-foaming
- Temperature
- Time required
- Mechanical actions.
Why use surfactants in cleaning?
- Reduce the surface tension of the water
- Get wetting properties and to release soil from surfaces
- Emulsify fatty material
- Disperse solid particles and pigment
This is where you will find that some manufacturers and suppliers of cleaning chemicals will dilute products heavily to save cost and be more competitive.
In the long run, they are only costing the user more money, since you have to use more chemicals to get the job done, as well as costs the planet more in using scarce resources:
- More raw materials
- More packaging
- Energy
- Pollution
What is Green?
Green is associated with:
Regeneration
Fertility
Re-birth for its connection to nature
Green Movement
The green movement refers to environmentally-friendly products.
Sustainability – The capacity to endure. In ecology, the word describes how biological systems remain diverse and productive over time.
Renewable resource – A natural resource is a renewable resource if it is replaced by natural processes at a rate comparable or faster than its rate of consumption by humans.
Environmentally-friendly – Also known as eco-friendly, nature-friendly and green.
All these terms refer to goods and services, laws, guidelines and policies considered inflicting minimal or no harm to the environment. Contact us for more information on the Green Movement
Carbon Footprint
Carbon footprint means the total set of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions caused by an organisation, event or product. For simplicity’s sake, it is often expressed in terms of the amount of carbon dioxide, or its equivalent of other GHG’s, emitted.
Biodegradable Industrial cleaning chemicals:
A biodegradable product has the ability to break down, safely and relatively quickly, by biological means, into the raw materials of nature and disappear into the environment.
What is Green Cleaning?
Green cleaning means the use of those products and services that have a lesser or reduced impact on human health and the environment when compared with competing products or services that serve the same purpose.
- Save the planet – preserve the environment
- Protect the health of people and animals
- Increase the lifespan of facilities
Who is going green?
Only some people are going green, and then not fully. Due to the perceived cost of going green and the notion that green products are not as good as bleaches, acids and chemicals that are strong, foam more and have a particular perceived violent attack on dirt.
Corporations and households tend to separate processes where, if they decide to go green, they will go green only in the critical processes, example where there could be contact with food or critical hygiene interaction.
Types of GREEN Cleaners / Industrial cleaning chemicals
- Green chemical cleaners
- Go green hand sanitiser
- Disinfectant – general purpose
- disinfectant cleaner
- Dispenser liquid hand soap
- Dishwashing liquid
- GP cleaner – medium duty degreasing detergent
- Maxi – high grade degreasing detergent
- Neutral detergent- medium grade neutral detergent
- Enzyme cleaner – general purpose with surfactant
- Enzyme D-odour – for disinfecting & odour elimination
- Wash – phosphate free micro powder in refill bag

What was eliminated from the enviroteQ range?
- “Butyl cleaner” (2-butoxyethanol)
- Nonyl phenol ethoxylate surfactants
- Phosphates
- Formaldehydes.
Enzymes and Microbes
Enzymes – An enzyme is a catalyst that breaks up long, complex waste molecules into smaller pieces, which can then be digested directly by the bacteria.
Microbes – Microbe = bacteria. The bacteria selected for enzyme cleaners consume organic waste thousands of times faster than the bacteria that are naturally present in the waste.
Why use enzymes?
Non-toxic
Non-irritating
Non-gaseous
Non-flammable
Non-pathogenic
Non-hazardous.
Benefits
Microbes multiply to accommodate the volume of waste. The by-product of microbial digestion is nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and water – exactly what nature would do. The microbes and enzymes are self-limiting and fully biodegradable.
Four basic classes of Enzymes most relevant to cleaning and cleaning chemicals:
Lipase
Protease
Cellulase
Amylase
Bio-teQ Enzyme Cleaner
Industrial Cleaning Chemical
- Rapidly digests a broad spectrum of organic waste
- Waste begins to digest immediately on contact
- When waste is digested the microbes and enzymes are self-limiting and fully biodegrade
- Rapidly digests FOG’s (fats Oil & Grease) reducing volume in grease traps and the need to engage pump-out services
- Digests amines which are the compounds that attract many insects such as flies and cockroaches
- Safe for the environment – non-polluting, organic and contains renewable ingredients
- Addresses Occupational Health & Safety issues by removing toxic chemicals and the need for hot water.
Bio-teQ Enzyme D-odour:
- Has the ability to rapidly multiply providing a scalable sanitizing effect
- Possesses powerful anti-bacterial properties which remove many harmful pathogens such as e-coli, salmonella, staphylococcus, lysteria and cholera
- Cleans drains of non-living organic matter and fat build up, preventing blockages and malodour, thus reducing costs of plumbing call-outs
- Does not mask or cover-up odours instead removes the molecules that are the cause of a broad spectrum of malodours
- Safe to use, non-corrosive and non-pathogenic. Give us a call and we will assist you.
