Alco is a liquid reducer additive formulated to neutralise alkaline and chlorinated residues in industrial textile washing processes. It acts on compounds generated by detergents and bleachers to preserve the integrity of industrial fabrics, prevent yellowing and improve the softness of textile products after each wash cycle.
Description
Alco is a liquid reducer additive developed specifically for industrial laundries that process intensive-use textiles. Its primary function is to neutralise the alkaline residues generated by high-load detergents and the chlorinated compounds from bleachers, restoring the chemical balance of the fabric at the end of each wash cycle. The result is greater fibre preservation, reduced stiffness and sustained appearance over more usage cycles.
Formulated and manufactured by Detervic / Instaquim, Alco meets the operational demands of sectors with high textile rotation, such as HoReCa, healthcare and service laundries.

Benefits for professional use
- Neutralisation of residual alkalinity — removes the remnants of alkaline detergents trapped in the structure of industrial fabrics after rinsing, preventing progressive fibre degradation.
- Reduction of active chlorine — neutralises chlorinated compounds from bleachers, protecting fibres and preventing premature fabric deterioration.
- Improved texture and softness — reduces stiffness accumulated by repeated use of chemical agents, providing greater comfort when in contact with skin and a more carefully maintained appearance.
- Prevention of yellowing — particularly effective on white garments and hospitality textiles subjected to high-frequency wash cycles with bleachers.
Main applications
- Industrial laundries: post-wash treatment of workwear and uniforms to neutralise alkaline and chlorinated residues accumulated in each cycle.
- HoReCa and accommodation: maintenance of textiles such as sheets, towels and tablecloths, where washing frequency requires precise control of residual alkalinity to maintain colour and softness.
- Healthcare sector: treatment of hospital clothing, gowns and garments subjected to cycles with bleachers, where removal of chlorinated residues is essential to protect fibres and prevent user irritation.
- Textile industry and service companies: use in washing protocols to neutralise alkalinity and chlorine residues.
Recommended sectors
- HoReCa — treatment of textiles such as towels, sheets and tablecloths to preserve softness and whiteness after intensive wash cycles with bleachers.
- Healthcare and geriatric care — neutralisation of chlorinated residues in hospital clothing and continuously used garments, protecting fibres and ensuring the absence of residual irritant compounds.
- Service companies and industrial laundries — incorporation of Alco in washing protocols for different types of fabrics and work equipment.
