Deternet is a liquid dishwasher detergent with high alkalinity formulated specifically for automatic dishwashers operating with soft water (up to 20 ºHF). As a non-foaming industrial dishwasher detergent, it effectively breaks down fats and organic residue in every automatic wash cycle while protecting the internal components of the equipment against limescale buildup.
Description
Deternet is a non-foaming, high-alkalinity liquid dishwasher detergent formulated for professional installations working with soft water up to 20 ºHF. Its formula breaks down fats and organic residue in high-frequency automatic cycles without generating interference in recirculation systems or pressure in spray arms. Active carbonate inhibition reduces limescale precipitation on both tableware and internal equipment components.
Deternet is formulated and manufactured by Detervic / Instaquim for professional use exclusively.

Benefits for professional use
- Non-foaming — prevents interference with recirculation systems and maintains spray arm pressure throughout the entire cycle.
- High alkalinity tailored for soft water — breaks down fats and adhered organic residue.
- Active carbonate inhibition — acts on tableware and internal equipment components in every cycle, reducing limescale precipitation.
- Precise dosing and stable performance — compatible with automatic dosing systems.
Primary applications
- Restaurants and professional kitchens: use as an industrial dishwasher detergent in hood, conveyor and continuous-feed machines with high-frequency cycles.
- Hotels and contract catering: washing tableware, glassware and cutlery in central kitchens with high workload and chained cycles.
- Collective dining facilities and social catering: schools, retirement homes, hospitals and correctional facilities with food hygiene requirements and high washing volumes.
- Bars and cafés: low water-use machines where the absence of foam is critical for correct equipment operation.
Recommended sectors
- HoReCa — hotels, restaurants and cafés with intensive tableware and glassware washing in professional kitchens with hood or conveyor machines, where non-foaming formula and cycle stability are critical.
- Healthcare and geriatric care — hospital and clinic dining facilities, and retirement homes with food hygiene requirements and high washing volumes in soft-water installations.
- Service companies and facility management — management of collective kitchens and social catering contracts requiring an industrial dishwasher detergent adapted to each installation's water profile.

Frequently asked questions
What is Deternet for?
Deternet is a non-foaming, high-alkalinity liquid dishwasher detergent formulated for automatic washing in professional dishwashers operating with low water hardness (up to 20 ºHF). It breaks down fats and organic residue in every cycle, inhibits limescale formation and protects internal equipment components.
What is the difference between a dishwasher detergent for soft water and one for hard water?
Deternet is formulated for water up to 20 ºHF.
Which sectors is it recommended for?
Deternet is recommended for environments with intensive washing cycles and low water hardness supply: hospitality and catering (hood, conveyor or continuous-feed machines), collective dining facilities, hospitals, retirement homes, contract catering companies and satellite kitchens managed by facility management services.
Is it suitable for professional use?
Yes. Formulated by Detervic / Instaquim for professional environments, with technical support for authorised distributors and users.
Can it be used on aluminium utensils?
No. The alkaline pH of Deternet may damage utensils made from aluminium. The product should not be used on this material and, if uncertain about compatibility with other substrates, a preliminary test is recommended before systematic application.
