Why we are your supplier in Edinburgh
Over 3,500 self-service laundries across Europe already trust us. We develop chemical solutions designed for the real challenges of the soft water in Edinburgh (around 4 °dH) and continuous use in self-service operations.
Formulation for soft water
A balance between efficacy and consumption. Dosing reduced to avoid over-sudsing in the soft-water supply that reaches Edinburgh from the Pentland and Talla reservoirs.
Guaranteed compatibility
Tested and approved for Girbau, LG, Electrolux, Fagor and Primus, among others. Density calibrated for automatic dosers and peristaltic pumps without blockages.
Foam and odour control
Low foam level (max. 50 mm) for fast cycles without interruptions. Neutralisers that eliminate persistent bad odours in drum and textiles.
