Bryta Degreaser 5ltr
Bryta Heavy Duty Kitchen Cleaner and Degreaser tackles the grease and food deposits that build up during commercial cooking. The concentrated detergent is formulated for kitchen areas and equipment, helping cleaning teams remove animal fats, grease, blood, protein and ingrained food soiling from appropriate hard surfaces. It suits the more demanding cleaning jobs that follow a busy catering service.
The range of applications makes Bryta useful across several parts of a professional kitchen. The manufacturer's instructions cover floors, work surfaces and walls, with a separate procedure for deep fat fryers. Cooker tops, canopies, filters and other suitable washable equipment are also listed applications, allowing staff to choose the correct method for the surface and type of soil.
Bryta's unperfumed, non-tainting formulation is designed to rinse away after cleaning. Its product information identifies aluminium compatibility when used as directed, which is useful when planning cleaning around mixed kitchen equipment. Always check the equipment manufacturer's guidance, especially for coated or specialist surfaces, and retain the full rinsing stage before returning cleaned items to use.
The two 5 litre containers provide stock for repeated cleaning tasks, with different dilutions for general grease and heavier build-up. Compare the degreaser range for other applications, or view Evans Lift Cleaner Degreaser as another professional option. Bryta was formerly known as Brillo Cleaner and Degreaser, a name some customers will recognise when reordering.

Directions for Use
1. Prepare the area and working solution
Read the label and current Safety Data Sheet, use the specified eye or face protection and other protective measures, and avoid skin contact. Remove loose soil and cover or remove food before cleaning. The manufacturer specifies 1:40 for general grease and 1:20 for heavy grease build-up. Measure the dilution accurately and follow the container instructions; do not mix with other chemicals.
2. Clean greasy floors
Remove loose debris, then apply the required diluted solution with a mop. Allow it to penetrate for up to five minutes before cleaning and rinsing off with hot water. Manage access to the wet area and leave the floor safe for normal use after the cleaning solution and loosened soil have been removed.
3. Clean work surfaces, walls and suitable equipment
With food protected and loose soil removed, apply the required solution using a sponge cloth, suitable scouring pad or trigger bottle. Choose equipment that will not damage the surface. Rinse thoroughly with hot water and leave to dry. Check the surface manufacturer's instructions before treating aluminium, coatings or other specialist finishes.
4. Follow the separate deep-fat-fryer procedure
Only use this method where the fryer manufacturer permits it and trained staff can follow the cleaning procedure safely. Turn off the heat, drain the oil and remove sediment with hot water. Fill with Bryta solution at 1:20, then heat without boiling for 10–15 minutes. Do not breathe the fumes. Drain, rinse with clean water at least twice and wipe completely dry before returning the fryer to service.

FAQs
What does Bryta Degreaser clean?
It is intended for animal fats, grease, protein and other ingrained food soils on compatible hard surfaces in professional kitchens. Typical jobs include greasy floors, walls, work surfaces and suitable equipment. Match the application method and dilution to the task.
Is this the product previously called Brillo?
This Astral listing identifies Bryta as the former Brillo Cleaner and Degreaser. Use the current Bryta label and attached Bryta documents when preparing and handling the product, and use stock reference CMJ201A to identify this listing when reordering.
Which dilution should I use?
The current manufacturer information specifies 1:40 for general grease and 1:20 for heavier grease build-up. Floor cleaning allows up to five minutes for penetration before cleaning and hot-water rinsing. Work surfaces and fryers have their own application instructions, so follow the relevant procedure rather than applying one contact time to every task.
Can it be used on aluminium?
The manufacturer describes Bryta as safe on aluminium when used as directed. Check the equipment manufacturer's instructions and any coating restrictions, use the correct working dilution and rinse thoroughly. This is not a reason to use the concentrate on an unverified surface.
Does it need rinsing in food-preparation areas?
Yes. The directions for work surfaces and walls require thorough rinsing with hot water, followed by drying. The fryer method requires at least two clean-water rinses and wiping dry. Being unperfumed and non-tainting does not remove these rinsing requirements.
What precautions apply to the concentrate?
The Bryta Safety Data Sheet classifies the product as causing skin irritation and serious eye damage. Use eye or face protection and the task-appropriate protective measures, avoid direct contact and splashes, and keep the SDS available to staff. The product information sheet and container label provide the application instructions.
