Powerful Grease & Food Residue Removal
Professional kitchens require a washing up liquid capable of dealing with considerably heavier soiling than is typically encountered in domestic environments.
Suma Star D1 contains an optimised blend of surfactants designed to cut through stubborn grease and dried-on food, making it particularly suitable for high-volume manual dishwashing.
The product produces a stable, long-lasting lather, helping maintain the effectiveness of the washing solution during use and providing dependable cleaning performance across repeated washing tasks.
Easy Rinsing & Streak-Free Results
Suma Star D1 is formulated for easy rinsing, helping leave crockery, glassware and kitchen utensils with a clean, streak-free finish.
This makes it particularly useful in hospitality and catering environments where the appearance of crockery and glassware is just as important as effective cleaning.
Concentrated for Excellent Economy
The concentrated formulation provides excellent economy in use, with normal manual dishwashing requiring only a small quantity of detergent per litre of water.
This makes Suma Star D1 a practical choice for restaurants, hotels, cafés, pubs, schools, catering operations and other commercial kitchens requiring dependable professional washing-up performance every day.
