About us

Cleaning and hygiene supplies from a family business established in 1992

Astral Hygiene is an independent, family-run supplier of cleaning, hygiene and janitorial products, based in St Boswells in the Scottish Borders. Established in 1992, we supply customers throughout the UK, combining a broad product range with personal service and practical advice.

Our customers rely on us for the essentials that keep their premises running: cleaning chemicals, toilet tissue, hand towels, soap, refuse sacks and the equipment used to maintain their buildings. We also help with more specialist requirements, from selecting a disinfectant for a particular task to choosing a commercial cleaning machine.

For us, good service means taking the time to understand what you need, giving straightforward answers and helping you order with confidence.

Proud holders of a Royal Warrant

Astral Hygiene holds a Royal Warrant as suppliers of cleaning and hygiene products to His Majesty The King.

We are proud of this distinction and of the work that goes into serving our customers. Whether you are responsible for a small business, a busy kitchen or several commercial premises, your order matters to our team.

Our approach remains rooted in the values of an independent family business: being approachable, knowing our products and building relationships that last beyond a single purchase.

Commercial cleaning supplies for everyday demands

Keeping a workplace clean involves more than choosing a surface cleaner. Different areas need different products, equipment and routines. Kitchens, washrooms, entrances and shared spaces each bring their own requirements.

Our range brings these supplies together, helping customers organise regular purchasing and find products that suit the job.

Cleaning chemicals and disinfectants

We supply cleaning chemicals for commercial kitchens, washrooms, floors, laundry and general housekeeping. The range includes detergents, degreasers, descalers, glass cleaners, polishes, sanitisers and disinfectants.

Where a cleaning procedure calls for a particular standard, we offer products with documented testing, including BS EN 1276 and BS EN 13697 where applicable. The exact product, dilution and contact time matter, so we encourage customers to check the relevant label and manufacturer instructions when selecting and using a disinfectant.

Paper products and washroom supplies

Toilet rolls, hand towels and dispensers are everyday purchases that need to work well together. We supply paper products and washroom essentials for premises with different levels of use, from small offices to busy hospitality and public facilities.

Our range includes toilet tissue, centrefeed rolls, folded hand towels, wiping paper, soap and dispensing systems. Choosing a compatible paper and dispenser combination helps make replenishment simpler and avoids ordering a refill that does not fit.

Cleaning equipment and floor care

We supply commercial vacuum cleaners, floor-cleaning machines, accessories and replacement consumables, alongside everyday janitorial equipment.

From mops, buckets and brushes to scrubber dryers and specialist floor-care products, the right choice depends on the floor surface, the area being maintained and the cleaning routine. Our team can help you identify suitable options and check product details before you buy.

Hand hygiene, workwear and other essentials

Our wider range includes hand soaps, hand sanitisers, wipes, waste bins, bin liners, workwear, PPE and first-aid supplies.

Bringing these purchases together can make it easier to manage the products your team uses regularly. Whether you are restocking one cleaning cupboard or buying for several departments, we can help you find the relevant supplies.

Supporting businesses across different sectors

We work with customers whose premises, cleaning tasks and purchasing needs vary considerably. Understanding those differences helps us give more useful advice.

Hospitality and catering

Restaurants, cafés, takeaways, hotels and other hospitality businesses need dependable supplies for kitchens, dining areas, guest facilities and washrooms.

We supply food-area cleaning products, dishwasher chemicals, laundry products, paper consumables and housekeeping equipment, helping teams organise the supplies needed throughout a busy service.

Offices, education and shared buildings

Offices, schools and other shared premises need practical products for frequent cleaning and regular replenishment.

Our range covers everyday surface cleaning, floor care, washroom hygiene and waste management, with pack sizes and dispensing options suited to different buildings and patterns of use.

Healthcare, care and community settings

These settings require careful product selection and clear cleaning procedures. We supply hygiene products, paper consumables, hand-care products and equipment that customers can assess against their own requirements.

Product suitability should always be checked against the intended task, manufacturer guidance and the organisation’s cleaning or infection-control procedures.

Agriculture and industry

We also supply customers working in agricultural and industrial environments, including businesses with specialist cleaning and disinfection requirements.

Our range includes products for livestock premises, dairy hygiene, workshop cleaning and other demanding applications. Where specific approvals or treatment conditions apply, customers should check the current product information for their intended use.

Established brands and informed choices

Our range includes recognised manufacturers such as Diversey, Numatic, Tork, Selden, Evans, Mirius and Delphis Eco.

Brand familiarity can be helpful, but selecting the right product also means checking its formulation, pack size, application and compatibility. A ready-to-use spray and a concentrate may serve different routines, while two similar-looking paper refills may fit different dispensers.

We aim to make those distinctions clear, helping you choose what suits your workplace rather than simply buying the nearest-looking alternative.

Looking at value beyond the purchase price

A lower unit price does not always mean a lower cost in use. Concentration, dosing, pack quantity, dispenser compatibility and the amount needed for each task can all affect value.

We help customers consider these practical details when comparing products. For some premises, a measured concentrate is appropriate; for others, a ready-to-use product makes the routine simpler.

We also stock options with product-specific environmental credentials, including selected recycled paper products and certified cleaning formulations. Where these features matter to your purchasing policy, check the credentials of the individual product.

Scottish Borders roots, UK-wide delivery

Our business is based at Charlesfield Industrial Estate in St Boswells. We value our Scottish Borders roots and the relationships we have built with local customers, while supplying cleaning and hygiene products throughout the UK.
