Rinsing additive for use in the last rinse in automatic washing of dishware. Incorporates high-efficiency drying and anti-foaming agents, preventing the formation of scale deposits and giving an excellent shine and total transparency. Does not leave residual smells or flavours that could contaminate the washed items.
Detersec K is a professional brilliance aid for soft water formulated with specific drying agents and antifoaming agents for industrial automatic dishwashers. Designed for environments where water hardness is low, it guarantees clean drying without spots or residues on glassware, crockery and cutlery, optimising each wash cycle and extending the useful life of machinery.
01Antifoaming agents specific to soft and industrial treated water, where generic brilliance aids do not resolve foam effectively.
02High-efficiency drying agents that reduce surface tension and prevent marks on glassware, crockery and cutlery after each cycle.
03Phosphate-free, EDTA-free, NTA-free, fragrance-free, artificial colorant-free — suitable for environments with food safety and regulated hygiene requirements.
04Adjustable dosing between 0.3 and 1 g/l, compatible with automatic dosing systems for consistent and controlled consumption.
05Inhibits limescale buildup on spray arms, heating elements and internal walls, reducing the frequency of descaling procedures.

Detersec K is a rinse brilliance aid formulated specifically for industrial dishwashers operating with soft water or water treated via softeners, reverse osmosis or ion exchange. In these environments, the low concentration of calcium and magnesium promotes foam formation during the final rinse cycle, which interferes with correct water drainage and generates residues on crockery. Its high-efficiency antifoaming agents control this phenomenon specifically, while drying agents reduce the surface tension of rinse water to facilitate its rapid and uniform drainage, leaving glassware, crockery and cutlery dry and spotless in each cycle.
Formulated and manufactured by Detervic / Instaquim, Detersec K is designed for intensive professional use in sectors where cycle-to-cycle consistency is decisive: HoReCa, collective catering, healthcare and food industry. Its formulation free of phosphates, EDTA, NTA, caustic soda, chlorine, ammonia, fragrance and artificial colorants makes it suitable for environments with strict food safety and hygiene requirements, with no transfer of odours or flavours to washed utensils.
Product Summary
Product Type
Rinse brilliance aid for industrial dishwashers
Primary Use
Rinsing and drying in industrial automatic dishwashers with soft or treated water
Formulation specific to soft water — adapted antifoaming agents control the excessive foam characteristic of low-mineralisation water, a problem that generic brilliance aids do not effectively solve in installations with softened or demineralised water.
Clean drying without spots — drying agents reduce the surface tension of rinse water, accelerating its drainage and preventing residual water droplets from drying on glassware, crockery and cutlery and leaving visible stains.
Limescale incrustation inhibition — reduces the formation of mineral deposits on spray arms, heating elements and internal walls of the equipment, decreasing the frequency of descaling operations and contributing to machinery preservation.
Flexible dosing and automation-compatible — the 0.3 to 1 g/l range allows consumption to be adjusted to the actual water hardness and cycle load; compatible with automatic dosing systems for consistent and controlled management.
Main Applications
HoReCa and catering: eliminates the need for manual rework on glassware, porcelain crockery and stainless steel cutlery, reducing time between cycles and improving service rotation in restaurants, hotels and cafés with industrial dishwashers operating with soft or treated water.
Collective catering and industrial catering: in high-volume dining facilities, consistency of results cycle to cycle is critical. Dosing adjusted via automatic system guarantees uniformity without variations, regardless of water mains mineralisation.
Hospitals, care homes and healthcare centres: formulation without fragrance and without transfer of odours or flavours meets the food safety and hygiene requirements of these environments; crockery is left free of chemical residues after rinsing.
Food industry and collective catering: compatible with installations where rinsing of utensils, trays and equipment must meet regulated hygiene criteria and machinery operates continuously with softened or demineralised industrial water.
Recommended Sectors
HoReCa — brilliance aid for industrial dishwashers with soft or treated water; maintains glassware and crockery spotless in high-volume services in hotels, restaurants and cafés.
Food industry — treatment of the rinse cycle in installations with softened or demineralised industrial water, meeting food safety criteria in continuous-operation machinery.
Healthcare and elderly care — fragrance-free product suitable for environments with strict rinsing and regulated hygiene requirements, with no transfer of odours or flavours to utensils.
Service companies and facility management — brilliance aid for managing multiple installations with washing machinery in continuous operation and softened or treated mains water, reducing inventory references.
Guidance on Use
01
Verify the water hardness of the installation using test strips or conductivity meter to determine the starting dosing point.
02
Connect Detersec K to the automatic dosing system of the industrial dishwasher in the reservoir designated for brilliance aid.
03
Adjust initial dosing between 0.3 and 1 g/l depending on water hardness: in soft or very soft water, start with the lower range (0.3–0.5 g/l).
04
Check results after the first cycles: observe the absence of spots, marks and residual foam on crockery and glassware as indicators of correct dosing.
05
Readjust dosage if water hardness or cycle load changes, keeping consumption within the recommended range.
