Charlotte Rayner – Commercial Cleaning Expert View Profile →

  • What We Liked: The spot-free drying agent is fantastic; glasses come out gleaming without extra polishing.
  • A Small Quibble: For heavily baked-on carbon, you’ll still need a good pre-soak or a stronger degreaser.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salty Squid, a popular seaside chippy in Brighton, was looking to streamline their cleaning process and  find a single, effective washing up liquid that could handle grease from the fryers and  keep their glassware sparkling for customers dining in.

"We were using three different products before. The Jantex liquid does it all. It cuts through the grease brilliantly and  the staff love that the glasses don't need a second polish. It’s saved us time and  cupboard space, which is a bonus in our little kitchen."

Robert Green – Owner

By switching to Jantex FS309, The Salty Squid reduced its chemical spend by 20% and  staff reported a 10% reduction in time spent on end-of-day cleaning tasks.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • For dishwashing, add a small capful to a sink of hot, running water to activate the long-lasting foam.
  • If decanting into spray bottles for surface cleaning, ensure you label them clearly with the contents and  dilution used.
  • Always refer to the bottle for the correct dilution ratio for the job – a little goes a long way!
  • Store in a designated cleaning cupboard away from food preparation areas.

Keeping It Going

  • Keep the cap tightly sealed when not in use to prevent spills and  maintain freshness.
  • Store upright in a cool, dry place and  out of direct sunlight.
  • While it is a mild detergent, it's always good practice to wear gloves for prolonged contact, especially with sensitive skin.
  • Monitor your stock levels – this is a product you won't want to run out of mid-service!

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cleaning Chemical

Not sure which chemical is right for the job? Here’s a quick guide to help you pick the perfect product for your professional kitchen.

Check the Concentration

A highly concentrated formula like this one offers better value for money as it lasts much longer than ready-to-use, diluted alternatives.

Consider Versatility

A multi-purpose chemical that can handle dishes, floors, and  surfaces saves you money and  storage space, and  simplifies staff training.

Scent Matters

A pleasant, fresh scent like citrus can improve the atmosphere for both staff and  customers, avoiding harsh, industrial chemical smells.

Safety First

Look for products with clear instructions. For any professional chemical, ensure you are compliant with COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) regulations.

Eco-Credentials

Consider the packaging. Brands that use recycled materials, like Jantex does for this bottle, show a commitment to reducing their environmental impact.

A Little Goes a Long Way: Understanding Dilution Ratios

Seeing a ratio like '1:750' can seem a bit abstract, but it's the secret to this detergent's incredible value. Think of it like making a perfect batch of orange squash. You only need a tiny splash of the concentrated cordial to make a full jug of refreshing drink. It's the same principle here. For dishwashing, the 1:750 ratio means you only need about 13ml of the liquid (roughly one tablespoon) for a massive 10-litre sink of hot water. This ultra-concentrated power means your one-litre bottle will last through hundreds of washes, making it far more economical than weaker, domestic detergents that require a hefty squirt every time.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Independent Cafés & Coffee Shops: Perfect for hand-washing crockery, cutlery, and  keeping front-of-house surfaces pristine and  welcoming.
  • Pubs & Bars: An essential for the back bar, ensuring spot-free glassware that’s ready for the next pint.
  • Mobile Caterers & Food Trucks: Its versatility is ideal for compact spaces where one bottle needs to do multiple jobs effectively.
  • Office & Workplace Kitchens: Keep the shared kitchen clean and  smelling fresh with this easy-to-use, professional-grade detergent.
