Agar Bleach - Cleaner and Sanitiser

BLEACH is a solution of sodium hypochlorite in water with an available chlorine content of 5% when packed. Because it offers a very effective method of killing undesirable micro-organisms (germs, bacteria, etc.), BLEACH is an excellent sanitiser. BLEACH also destroys stains, so it is useful in the laundry as a whitening agent.

Benefits

  • BLEACH is a very effective germ-killer.
  • An excellent sanitiser for food-preparation facilities.
  • Very economical.
  • Approved by AQIS for sanitising food processing equipment.

For Use On

BLEACH is an effective cleaner for removing mildew, mould and fatty or soapy build-ups from tiles, grouting, baths, basins and shower recesses. It is excellent for sanitising food-preparation work surfaces, utensils and equipment. When used at the correct dilution, BLEACH can be used for sanitising fruit and vegetables.

Sanitising work surfaces: 100 – 200 ppm - rinse after sanitising.
Immersion of utensils and equipment: 50 ppm - drain after use. No rinse required.

Make up a solution with the required concentration using the Dilution Chart below. (The water temperature should be varied according to the amount of BLEACH used, as shown.)

Bathroom Sanitising

If surfaces are badly soiled, clean dirt away with a detergent such as FRESCO or SUPERFORCE. Dilute BLEACH to 1 in 10 with water. Apply to surfaces and leave to activate for 30 seconds. Rinse down with clean water.

Toilets

Add 60mls (1/4 cup) of BLEACH to the bowl. Brush all surfaces. Leave to work for 5 minutes then flush.

Mould Removal

  1. Make up a 1 in 20 solution of BLEACH. (This is 50mls of BLEACH per Litre of water).
  2. Wash the surface with this solution.
  3. If surface is rough, scrub the solution in with a nylon brush; try to reach into all crevices.
  4. Rinse surface with clean water.
  5. Dry it off or leave it out to dry.

Blood Spills

  1. Blood may contain dangerous viruses.
  2. Wear the correct personal protective equipment. For a small blood spill this is:
    • rubber gloves
    • safety glasses
    • plastic apron
  3. Absorb the blood with paper towelling and dump the towelling into a garbage bag which should then be tied up shut. Do not make aerosol drops of the blood. Do not touch the blood with bare skin. Do not splash the blood.
  4. Clean the area with warm water and detergent (such as HC-90, LIFT, or PRESTO, etc..).
  5. Make up a 1 in 3 solution of BLEACH in water. This is 100mls plus 200mls water to make 300mls.
  6. Apply this solution to the contaminated area and leave to kill germs for 10 minutes.
  7. Wipe up the BLEACH and dry the area.
  8. Dispose of the BLEACH solution down the sink with plenty of running water to dilute it well.
  9. Clean all equipment well with detergent and water.
