Deterdur is a professional dishwasher detergent of high performance formulated specifically for washing machinery in environments with hard water. As an intensive-use liquid dishwasher detergent, it combines alkaline agents and sequestering agents that dissolve organic residue and grease, prevent limescale buildup on dishes and machine.
Description
Deterdur is an alkaline liquid detergent formulated exclusively for use in professional washing machinery—hood dishwashers, basket washers and tunnel washers—in environments where water hardness represents an operational challenge. Its combination of alkaline agents and sequestering agents effectively dissolves organic residue and grease, neutralises calcium and magnesium ions present in hard water, and prevents their precipitation on dishes and internal equipment components.
Deterdur is formulated and manufactured by Detervic / Instaquim, a company specialising in professional chemistry for hygiene in catering, restaurants, food industry and collective facilities management.
