Winning the Battle Against Grease

This is a special message from Clorox Professional Products Company.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could make short work of the notoriously difficult and time-consuming tasks of removing grease from kitchen floors, work surfaces and equipment?

Now you can. Three new cleaners and degreasers from Clorox Professional Products Company eliminate stubborn grease quickly and without arduous scrubbing. These breakthrough products are not only much more effective than competing cleaners, they are safer and more pleasant for employees to use because they are free of the caustic chemicals and harsh fumes typically found in other brands. What’s more, they require no rinsing, resulting in even greater labor efficiency.

Introducing the grease-fighting trio:

• Clorox® Professional Multi-Purpose Cleaner & Degreaser Spray is ready to use to quickly dissolve tough grease on ovens, stoves, countertops and many other surfaces. It leaves stainless steel shiny and streak free because it is formulated without the caustic salts and positively charged surfactants in competing products that leave residues after use.

• Clorox® Professional Multi-Purpose Cleaner & Degreaser Concentrate dilutes into a bucket or spray bottle for effective and economical degreasing. It quickly removes tough grease on countertops, work surfaces and stainless steel equipment. Stainless steel surfaces are left shiny and streak-free.

• Clorox® Professional Floor Cleaner & Degreaser Concentrate lifts slippery grease from quarry tile and grout to make floors safer as well as cleaner. No rinsing is required, nor is any stickiness or residue left on porous tile. What’s more, the light, pleasant scent allows it to be used around customers.

“Removing grease is a huge issue for foodservice operators, both from a safety standpoint, because slips and falls on floors are so prevalent, and from a labor perspective, because getting grease off counters and pans is so time consuming and unpleasant,” said Bruce Henry, Zone Sales Manager, Clorox Professional Products Company.

Failure to properly clean and degrease floors can lead to employee injury, as operators are well aware. In fact, slips and falls are the most common accidents in the foodservice industry, accounting for 57 percent of all general liability claims, according to an insurance industry study. Other consequences include lost work time and insurance rate increases.

Many of these accidents occur because of grease buildup. However, the superior technology in Clorox® Cleaners & Degreasers removes the heavy-duty, grease-related soils found in foodservice kitchens. They contain a synergistic blend of three cleaners with a specialized surfactant system that targets different soil problems to improve performance.

In addition, operators concerned about the environment will appreciate the fact that these products contain biodegradable surfactants to reduce environmental impact and are 2013 VOC Compliant, meaning they have low levels of fumes that may cause irritation.

With features and benefits like these, no wonder operators have a “wow” reaction when the new Clorox® Cleaners & Degreasers are demonstrated.

“We’ve been asking operators to bring us the greasiest, most challenging item in their kitchens,” said Henry. “Say it’s a burned-on broiler pan that’s been sitting around for weeks. We’ll clean half the pan with just a spray and a wipe. People just can’t believe how well it works with very limited labor.”
