Washing Up Liquid

Washing Up Liquid for Hospitality

Washing up liquid is your go-to for manual dishwashing at the sink, cutting through grease on plates, glassware, pans and utensils where a machine either isn’t practical or you just need a quick turnaround. Catering-grade products are usually more concentrated than retail versions, so you get rich foam and decent grease removal at low dilution, which matters when you’re topping up sinks all day.

Trade Insight

From what you can tell, the main difference in pro washing up liquids is concentration and how well the foam holds up once the water gets dirty, which is why most operators stick with higher active detergents that carry on working under heavy soil rather than collapsing after the first pan load. Eco-labelled formulas are getting more popular too, but you still see a lot of sites testing them on glassware first to make sure there’s no film or streaking before they roll them out across the whole sink area.
