Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Harbour View Café in Porthleven, Cornwall, was looking to switch to sustainable suppliers that aligned with their coastal location and eco-friendly ethos, starting with their cleaning supplies.
"We were tired of detergents that claimed to be 'green' but couldn't handle the greasy breakfast rush. The Greenspeed concentrate is brilliant—it cleans everything perfectly, and our pot washer's hands are no longer dry and irritated. Our team and our conscience feel much better."
Michael Edwards – Owner
The café successfully reduced its spending on washing up liquid by 40% and eliminated a significant source of single-use plastic from its daily operations.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- For best results, use a pelican pump or dispenser to measure the small amount needed accurately.
- Always add the concentrate to a sink of fresh, warm water (around 45°C is ideal) for best activation.
- Pre-scrape plates to remove heavy food soiling and make the detergent work even more effectively.
- Keep the original container clearly labelled and store it away from food preparation areas.
Keeping It Going
- Always keep the cap screwed on tightly to prevent spills and protect the formula's integrity.
- Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can degrade the ingredients.
- If you pre-dilute a small amount for a dispenser bottle, make sure that bottle is clearly labelled.
- Wipe down the bottle regularly to keep it clean and easy to handle.

Explore more from GreenspeedWhy a pH-Neutral Formula Matters in a Pro Kitchen
Ever wondered what 'pH-neutral' actually means? In simple terms, it means the liquid isn't acidic (like lemon juice) or alkaline (like bleach). Its pH level is balanced, just like pure water. Think of it like using a quality, gentle hand soap on your skin instead of a harsh industrial degreaser. For a pot washer who has their hands in and out of the sink dozens of times a day, this makes a huge difference. It helps prevent the skin from becoming dry, red, and irritated, which means a more comfortable, happier, and more productive team. It's a small detail on the bottle that has a big impact on daily work life.
Who Should Buy This?

- Independent Cafés: Its high-concentration formula is ideal for high-volume pot washing, saving vital space and money.
- Mobile Caterers & Food Trucks: A compact, powerful, and eco-friendly cleaning solution for on-the-go service at events and markets.
- School & Care Home Kitchens: The gentle, skin-kind formula is a safer choice for sensitive environments and frequent, daily use.
