Specialist Cleaning Chemicals for Difficult Commercial & Industrial Tasks
Astral Hygiene supplies a professional range of specialist cleaning products and problem-solving cleaning chemicals for demanding commercial, industrial, food-service and facilities-management applications throughout the UK.
Our range includes drain and grease trap treatments, concrete and cement cleaners, odour-control products, heavy-duty detergents, poolside cleaners, specialist disinfectants and other targeted cleaning formulations for jobs that standard everyday cleaners may not be designed to handle.
From blocked drains and grease build-up to cement residue, persistent odours and heavy industrial soiling, Astral Hygiene provides specialist products for challenging cleaning and maintenance tasks.
Biological Drain & Grease Trap Opener is a 5L product for planned maintenance of drains, grease traps and kitchen pipework. Its enzyme-based formulation helps break down organic residues such as fats and grease. Regular treatment forms part of a maintenance routine for catering premises where these deposits can build up during daily food preparation. The product is intended for use with a suitable timed dispenser to provide measured doses. Check the current label and equipment instructions before setting the amount and frequency, as requirements depend on the installation and workload. Monitor the system and investigate persistent drainage problems. Keep this treatment separate from other chemicals and obtain product-specific advice before changing an established dosing programme or using it in an unfamiliar system.
Biological Drain Solution 5ltr is a professional biological treatment for small-bore drains serving sinks, baths, showers and kitchen waste units. Bio-Productions combines selected microorganisms with enzymes to break down organic waste, including fats and grease, helping improve flow and reduce associated odours. The 5L container suits a regular maintenance routine for catering and other premises with recurring organic deposits. Shake before use and follow the manufacturer’s measured treatment method. A 50 ml dose is applied at the outlet, activated with water and left for at least 30 minutes, ideally overnight, before flushing. Weekly maintenance also uses 50 ml. Keep treatment separate from bleach, disinfectants, acids and caustic products, which can interfere with its biological action.
Heavy Duty Caustic Plant, Drain and Oven Cleaner 5L is a concentrated cleaner for demanding grease, fat and carbonised food deposits in commercial kitchens and food-processing environments. Its highly caustic formulation is intended for appropriate oven, drain, grease-trap and plant-cleaning tasks where routine kitchen cleaners may be insufficient. Select the method and dilution for the particular application from the product label and follow the matching safety data sheet. Check equipment and surface compatibility before starting, use the specified protective equipment and rinse as directed. This product is not suitable for aluminium or galvanised metal. The 5-litre container suits planned heavy-duty cleaning by staff familiar with the handling requirements of caustic cleaning chemicals.
Evans Chlor Tabs are quick-dissolving effervescent bleach tablets for preparing measured chlorine solutions in catering, washrooms and other professional hygiene settings. Each tub contains 200 tablets, with a stated tablet weight of 3.25g. Counting tablets into a measured water volume makes it straightforward to prepare the solution required for a particular task. One tablet in one litre provides 1,000ppm available chlorine; one in five litres provides 200ppm. Evans lists BS EN 1276 bacterial testing alongside surface, fungal, viral and spore tests, with different concentrations and contact periods. General surface disinfection uses five minutes, while the documented EN 14476 adenovirus and poliovirus test uses fifteen minutes. Dissolve completely and follow the appropriate preparation and treatment instructions.
Mirius W4 Chlorine Tablets provide a measured way to prepare bleaching and disinfecting solutions for commercial cleaning. Each tub contains 300 tablets, with separate instructions for hard surfaces, tools and utensils, and suitable laundry applications. The tablet format lets staff count the required amount before dissolving it in the specified volume of water. Choose the dilution and contact time for the task, and allow each tablet to dissolve fully before use. Hard-surface cleaning requires a different solution strength from utensil immersion or laundry soaking, so follow the current label carefully. Keep the tub closed between uses and refer to the safety data sheet when planning handling, storage and staff training.
Chlorosan - Chlorine Disinfectant Tablets with Detergent combines measured chlorine disinfection with detergent cleaning for compatible hard surfaces. Scotmas supplies the SC017-200 product in a 200-tablet tub. Each tablet releases 1,000mg of available chlorine, with sodium dichloroisocyanurate in an effervescent base. The manufacturer’s technical sheet sets out separate bacterial, yeast, fungal, viral and spore preparations. For bacterial and yeast disinfection, it specifies one tablet in ten litres for one minute under clean conditions, or one tablet in one litre for five minutes under dirty conditions. Fungal and spore treatments require different strengths and longer periods. Dissolve fully in water no warmer than 30°C, wet the surface completely and maintain the specified contact time.
Evans Citrand Heavy Duty Hand Gel 5L is a professional wash-off cleanser for hands affected by oil, grease and stubborn workplace soiling. Its olive-seed ingredient provides exfoliating action, while added glycerine supports skin conditioning. This bulk gel format is a practical choice for garages, engineering workshops and other industrial workplaces that need more cleaning power than a general hand soap. Check the dispensing arrangement before ordering. Use a compatible gel dispenser with the appropriate pump fitting, or dispense from the 5 litre bottle using a suitable pelican pump. Ordinary liquid soap pumps may not handle particulate gel. Apply and rinse according to the product label; Citrand is a hand cleanser rather than an alcohol sanitiser.
Delphis Eco Bio Fizzy Tablets provide a biological treatment for routine maintenance of drains, grease traps, toilets and septic tanks. This pack contains 20 tablets, which release beneficial bacteria when dissolved in water. The bacteria help break down fats, oils, grease and other organic waste, reducing the build-up that contributes to unpleasant odours and slow drainage. Use the tablets as part of a regular maintenance programme in commercial kitchens, hospitality premises and washrooms. Dissolve them in tepid water and follow the application instructions for the system being treated. Avoid bleach, antibacterial cleaners and conventional drain unblockers during treatment because they can interfere with the bacteria. Read the label and safety information before use.
Delphis Eco Liquid Grease & Drain Cleaner 5L is a ready-to-use biological treatment for commercial kitchen grease traps and drain lines. Its blend of Bacillus bacteria breaks down fats, oils, grease and other organic waste, helping reduce deposits and associated odours. The LGD050 container supports a regular dosing programme in restaurants, cafés, hotels and catering facilities. Use the treatment undiluted with a suitable peristaltic dosing pump. Start with a cleaned grease trap and follow the manufacturer’s initial and ongoing daily doses. Introduce the product into the drain line just before the trap, within the specified distance. Continue inspection, physical cleaning and emptying as part of the maintenance routine; the biological treatment supports that work.
DEW Urine Buster 500ml is a ready-to-use urine odour remover and disinfectant spray for professional washroom care, with EN 1276 and EN 14476 certification. The fragrance-free formulation uses electrolysed water technology to target urine odours around toilets, urinals and compatible surrounding surfaces. The trigger bottle makes it convenient to treat affected areas as part of your normal cleaning routine. Apply according to the product label and allow the treated area to dry naturally. Check surface suitability before use, test an inconspicuous area where needed and avoid natural wood. Keep the bottle cool and protected from direct sunlight. Regular attention to splash areas helps cleaning teams manage recurring washroom odours without adding a strong perfume.
Evans Drain Clear 10L is a biological liquid for maintaining drains and grease traps affected by fats and grease. Its naturally occurring micro-organisms help break down organic deposits, control unpleasant odours and support free-flowing drainage. Regular treatment helps manage grease build-up as part of a planned kitchen maintenance routine. The product can be used with the Evans Biological Drain Dosing System or applied manually in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Choose the correct treatment schedule for your drain or grease trap and continue routine inspections and servicing. This is a maintenance product: identify the cause of an existing blockage before choosing a suitable method of clearing it.
Evans Enhance Ultra High Solids Floor Polish is a metallised emulsion polish supplied in a 5L container. It creates a durable, wet-look gloss finish on compatible hard floors and is intended for demanding commercial areas. Suitable listed surfaces include vinyl, linoleum, rubber, terrazzo and other appropriate sealed flooring. Plan application around the floor’s condition, existing finish and access requirements. Follow the product label for preparation, coating and drying, and check the flooring manufacturer’s care guidance before use. Once the coating is ready for maintenance, use compatible cleaning methods and burnishing equipment as directed. Enhance suits floor-care programmes in offices, retail premises, schools and hospitality settings where maintaining a consistent gloss appearance is important.
Floor Maintainer Concentrate is supplied in a 1L dosing bottle for routine care of compatible polished floors. The Selden formulation contains polymer and wax to support shine and durability, and can be used for spray cleaning or damp mopping followed by burnishing with a suitable soft or medium pad. Match the maintenance method to the floor finish and follow both the bottle guide and the flooring manufacturer’s care instructions. Use the built-in reservoir to measure the concentrate, preparing the working solution for the chosen container as directed. This product is a floor maintainer, so check its suitability before applying it to an unfamiliar finish or introducing it into an existing floor-care programme.
Jeyes Stainless Steel Polish is supplied in a 750ml bottle for maintaining suitable stainless steel surfaces. It helps remove streaks and smears from worktops, cooker hoods and appliances, making it useful for routine care in commercial kitchens and other premises with stainless steel fittings. Check that the surface is compatible with the product before application. Apply to a clean cloth and wipe the surface, following the current label instructions. Allow the surface to dry fully before using it for food preparation, and follow any food-contact requirements stated on the label. Keep polishing separate from any required disinfection step. Store the bottle securely with your cleaning supplies and use the product as part of the appropriate surface-care routine.
Mirius H8 Mould & Mildew Remover 750ml is a targeted cleaner for mould and associated staining on suitable bathroom tiles, grout and seals. Part of the Super Professional range, it kills mould and spores while helping restore the appearance of affected surfaces.

Omnicide FG is an unfragranced disinfectant concentrate for use in food-production environments, including slaughterhouses and food-preparation areas. The 25 litre container is suited to sites that manage regular cleaning and disinfection programmes with trained staff and documented procedures. This is the FG variant; Omnicide FGII is the separate uncoloured and unfragranced option. Select the product and working dilution for the intended application using the current manufacturer’s instructions. Surface suitability, contact time and any rinsing requirements must be checked before treatment, particularly around food-contact equipment. Keep the safety data sheet available to staff preparing or applying the solution, and use the concentrate only within the handling arrangements specified for your workplace.
Omnicide FGII 25L is a disinfectant concentrate without added dye or perfume, intended for surface disinfection in food-production and preparation environments. It provides the uncoloured option within the Omnicide FG range, helping buyers distinguish it from the unfragranced FG formulation. The large container suits premises using a planned cleaning programme and measured chemical preparation. Before use, check that the product is appropriate for the equipment, surface and process involved. Prepare the working solution according to the current label, and follow the specified application, contact-time and rinsing instructions. Staff should have access to the safety data sheet and the site’s handling procedure whenever concentrate is being dispensed or diluted.
Mirius Omniclean 5L is a foaming detergent for first-stage cleaning in animal housing, hatcheries, transport and food-processing areas. It removes surface debris and soils such as fats and proteins before the separate disinfection stage. The manufacturer also identifies equipment and utensils in animal-health and food-processing settings as suitable applications. Omniclean disperses readily in water and can be used with the application method and dilution specified for the cleaning task. General cleaning, heavy foam cleaning and lightly soiled vehicles have different instructions, so match the concentration to the surface and soil load. Remove loose material first, apply the prepared detergent and rinse thoroughly as directed before moving on to the site’s disinfection procedure.
Orca A7 Machine Dishwash Detergent is a professional liquid dishwasher detergent supplied in a 20-litre container. Its low-foaming formula cuts through grease and food deposits, dispersing soil during machine washing so it can rinse away. A7 is effective in hard and soft water conditions and provides a bulk detergent supply for commercial catering kitchens. Use A7 in the wash stage of a suitable automatic dishwashing machine, following the machine manufacturer’s instructions and the supplied product label. Dose through the detergent compartment using the equipment’s specified arrangement. Check washware suitability before loading, remove loose food and keep the dishwasher’s filters and wash jets maintained as part of your regular warewashing routine.
Choose Orca hand and surface wipes in two distinct formats: the W12 alcohol-free pack of 90 or the W10 tub of 400 containing 70% alcohol wipes. The 90-pack sold here is always the alcohol-free version. Select the required pack size before adding it to your basket. Both products provide ready-to-use wipes for hands and suitable surfaces, with their own certified standards and label directions. The compact flow pack is convenient for smaller cleaning points, while the larger tub supports areas with more frequent use. Keep the pack closed between uses and follow the selected product’s instructions for application, contact time and surface compatibility. See the comparison below to choose the formulation that suits your cleaning routine.
Professional Clinging Oven Cleaner is intended to remove baked-on food and greasy deposits from suitable oven surfaces. Its clinging format supports cleaning of deposits that are difficult to remove during routine wipe-downs. It is a highly caustic chemical intended for controlled use in professional kitchen cleaning, with precautions matched to the task. Do not use this product on aluminium or galvanised materials. Check the oven manufacturer’s cleaning instructions and the current product label before application, including surface temperature, contact time and rinsing requirements. Read the safety data sheet and use the protective equipment specified for the product and your workplace assessment. Keep the chemical clearly labelled, prevent contact with skin and eyes, and do not mix it with other cleaning products.
RATIONAL Oven Tablets are available in two distinct types for compatible automatic oven-cleaning systems: care tablets in a pack of 150, or detergent cleaner tablets in a pack of 100. Select the type specified by your oven's cleaning programme before ordering. Cleaner tablets remove cooking residues, while care tablets support the system's care and limescale-control stage. These products have different roles and should not be treated as interchangeable. Check your exact oven model, operating instructions and the supplied product label for compatibility, tablet quantities and loading positions. Keep the packs clearly identified in the kitchen store so staff can choose the correct product when preparing the oven for its cleaning cycle.
Selden Reosan HD is a biocidal odour control fluid for industrial and environmental cleaning. Supplied in a five litre container, it helps tackle unpleasant smells around refuse bins, waste chutes, drains and settling tanks, with a bubblegum fragrance. The concentrated formula suits professional teams managing recurring odours around waste handling areas. Apply Reosan at the source of the smell as part of a planned maintenance routine. Its dilution depends on the task: general deodorising, refuse treatment and specialist fogging have different instructions. Select the appropriate method before preparing the product, and keep the label and safety data sheet available for staff responsible for mixing, application and safe storage.
Restore Glass Renovator is a specialist treatment for deposits on glassware and inside compatible glasswashing or dishwashing machines. It is intended to remove limescale and films that can remain after routine washing, helping address cloudy glassware and residue build-up. The product is used as a renovation treatment within the machine’s cleaning and maintenance programme. Check that the machine and glassware are suitable for treatment, then follow the current Restore label for dosing and the wash sequence. Assess the condition of the glasses and the machine before use, particularly if cloudiness or poor washing results persist. Follow the equipment manufacturer’s maintenance instructions and avoid mixing products. Contact Astral Hygiene if you need help identifying the correct renovator for your existing glasswashing setup.
Selactive Poolside Cleaner 5ltr is Selden E014, an acidic cleaner, sanitiser and deodoriser for compatible pool surrounds and washroom surfaces. It removes limescale and body fats, kills odour-producing bacteria and leaves a fresh lime fragrance. Selden states that it is independently tested to BS 6471 QAP50, making this specification useful when selecting a product for a professional wet-area cleaning programme. Use it on suitable ceramics, painted surfaces, stainless steel, floors and other non-porous surfaces. Prepare 1 part product to 40 parts warm or cold water for routine cleaning, or use neat for the manufacturer’s specified descaling applications. Brush and rinse as directed, check surface compatibility and wear eye protection when handling the product.
Selden Act Original H005 is a toilet cleaner and descaler supplied in a 1-litre bottle for professional washroom maintenance. Its clinging acidic formula tackles limescale and organic deposits on suitable ceramic and stainless steel toilets and urinals, giving cleaning teams a specific product for descaling tasks. Use it as part of a planned washroom cleaning routine, following the bottle label and selecting the correct method for the surface. Protect acid-sensitive materials such as marble, terrazzo, chrome and enamel, and rinse treated surfaces thoroughly after the required application. Wear appropriate protective gloves and eye protection. Keep the product in its original container and separate it from other cleaning chemicals; never mix it with bleach.
Selden Selscale is an acidic cleaner and descaler for initial cleaning and preparation of suitable concrete and masonry surfaces. It removes cement and plaster deposits and can etch concrete before an appropriate seal is applied. The manufacturer also lists metal descaling and derusting before painting, subject to the product’s material restrictions. This is a specialist preparation product, not a routine concrete floor cleaner. Repeated use on concrete can cause deterioration. Check the current label and safety data sheet before use and protect incompatible materials nearby. Do not use on or near linoleum, terrazzo, marble, acid-sensitive stone, stainless steel, chrome or enamel. Apply by brush as directed and follow the specified dilution, contact time and rinsing procedure.
Selden Spot & Stain Remover T012 is a ready-to-use treatment for localised marks on compatible colourfast carpets, upholstery and washable fabrics, including wool. Its Woolsafe-approved formulation provides a professional option for targeted stain removal or pre-treatment before extraction cleaning. The 750ml trigger bottle is convenient for housekeeping rounds and individual spot-cleaning tasks. Test an inconspicuous area for colourfastness before every new application, following the fabric’s care instructions. Carefully loosen dry deposits, spray the affected area and allow the solution time to penetrate. Remove the stain by blotting with clean white paper or using a suitable extraction machine. Use neat and handle delicate fibres gently throughout treatment. Follow the product label for application and removal.
Evans Target Extra 25L is a heavy-duty chlorinated foam cleaner for removing food soils, fats, proteins and stains from compatible surfaces. It contains caustic and hypochlorite and is designed for demanding cleaning tasks in food processing, abattoirs and animal or poultry housing. The formulation produces a stable foam that rinses away after treatment. Choose the application method to suit your equipment: the manufacturer provides separate instructions for foam-lance, pressurised-canister, manual and immersion cleaning. Each method has its own concentration and temperature range. Target Extra must not be used on soft metals. Follow the current label, rinse thoroughly with potable water and use the protective equipment specified in the safety data sheet.
