Osmosec

Description

Osmosec is a rinse aid for professional automatic dishwashers designed for installations that have an active water softener or reverse osmosis equipment. Its main function is to reduce water surface tension during the final rinse cycle, promoting rapid water evacuation across glassware, porcelain dishware and stainless steel without leaving mineral residue, marks or visible film. The formula includes drying agents and antifoaming agents selected to work in low-conductivity waters, where conventional rinse aids—designed to counteract hardness through chelating agents—do not provide adequate performance.

Osmosec is a product manufactured by Detervic / Instaquim, a company specializing in the formulation of professional cleaning products for hospitality, the food industry and collective catering. The range is oriented towards distributors and end-users with specific technical requirements, with documentary support and direct assistance from the manufacturer's technical department.

Benefits for professional use

• Optimized for soft waters and reverse osmosis — performs correctly in low-conductivity circuits where standard rinse aids generate foam or leave residue.
• Specific antifoaming action — prevents residual detergent foam from interfering with the rinse phase, a critical condition in installations with treated water.
• Formula without restricted additives — no phosphates, no EDTA, no NTA; complies with European regulations for professional detergents.
• Suitable for indirect food contact — no perfume and no artificial dyes; does not transfer odours or flavours to dishware.
• Improves turnover of serviceware — rapid water displacement reduces drying time in high-turnover services, eliminating the need for towel drying.
• Compatible with peristaltic dosing — allows precise adjustment of consumption per cycle, avoiding overdosing that would generate foam or residue.
• Non-abrasive — safe on fine glassware, porcelain and stainless steel in continuous use.

Main applications

• Restaurants and professional kitchens: final rinsing of glassware, porcelain dishware and stainless steel trays in high-turnover services with water treated by softening or reverse osmosis.
• Hotels: dishwashing for room service and internal restaurant where water management is part of the facilities maintenance protocol.
• Collective dining facilities and central kitchens: large volumes of serviceware with treated water systems, where rinse aid performance must be consistent cycle after cycle.
• Catering and collective catering: installations with integrated water softener and requirements for mark-free finish on intensively used dishware and glassware.
• Facility management and cleaning service companies: management of washing protocols for clients with reverse osmosis water treatment installations, where product specificity provides differential technical value.

Recommended sectors

• HoReCa — hotels, restaurants and cafes with water softener or reverse osmosis systems in tunnel or hood dishwashers, with high turnover of glassware and serviceware.
• Facility management and service companies — management of washing protocols for clients with reverse osmosis water treatment where rinse aid technical specificity is required.
• Healthcare and geriatric care — washing of dishware and serviceware in hospital or residential facilities with treated water and strict kitchen control.
