FAQs

  • Professional kitchens primarily use chemicals designed for cleaning, sanitation, and maintenance. 

    Chemicals like degreasers, sanitisers, detergents, descalers, and drain cleaners remove fat, scale, and pathogens.

    Meanwhile, other chemicals frequently used include oven cleaners, glass cleaners, and stainless steel polish.

  • The 9 main types of cleaning chemicals used in catering are:

    1. Descalers
    2. Sanitisers
    3. Detergents
    4. Degreasers
    5. Disinfectants
    6. Oven cleaners
    7. Glass cleaners
    8. Drain Cleaners
    9. Stainless steel cleaners
  • You should only use food-safe sanitisers on surfaces that come into contact with food. 

    This way, you can be sure the food is safe to eat and meets food safety standards.
