“ITS NOT SO MUCH ABOUT PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT; ITS ABOUT CREATING A WORLD WHERE THE ENVIRONMENT DOESN’T NEED PROTECTING “
Sodium hydroxide is a powerful alkaline chemical. In cleaning applications, its high alkalinity helps attack and break down fats, grease, oils and other organic contamination.
This makes it particularly valuable for heavy-duty cleaning where conventional detergents may not provide sufficient alkaline strength.
However, its strength also means that careful control of concentration, temperature, contact time and material compatibility is essential.
For food and beverage businesses, caustic soda can form part of a controlled cleaning programme for suitable equipment, drainage systems and industrial areas.
It is particularly useful where heavy organic soiling requires a high-strength alkaline chemistry.
Sodium hydroxide provides powerful alkaline cleaning action for demanding industrial cleaning applications.
Caustic soda is particularly effective at breaking down grease, fats, oils and other organic residues, making it useful in suitable food-processing cleaning applications.
Sodium hydroxide can be used for suitable blocked or slow-draining systems, helping break down accumulated organic material. Drain-cleaning applications should always be assessed for material compatibility and carried out according to appropriate safety procedures.
Caustic soda can be used as part of suitable heavy-duty cleaning procedures for ovens, cooking equipment and industrial food-processing areas, subject to equipment manufacturer recommendations and material compatibility.
Sodium hydroxide is also used in industrial effluent and wastewater treatment, including pH adjustment where appropriate.
Sodium hydroxide is widely used as a strong alkaline cleaning agent because of its ability to break down grease, fats, oils and other organic contamination.

Important: Sodium hydroxide is a highly corrosive substance. Application concentration, dilution method, temperature and contact time must be determined from the product instructions, site risk assessment and specific cleaning procedure. Always verify material compatibility before use.
Sodium hydroxide is highly corrosive and can cause severe burns to skin and eyes.
Professional users should:
Never add water to solid caustic soda in an uncontrolled manner. Dissolving sodium hydroxide generates significant heat. Follow the manufacturer's specified dilution procedure and appropriate chemical-handling controls.
Always obtain and read the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use
Convenient 2.5 kg Packaging
Supplied in 2.5 kg tubs, providing a manageable pack size for controlled professional and industrial use.
Sodium Hydroxide Caustic Pearls can be considered for a range of professional food and beverage applications where a strong alkaline chemistry is appropriate.
Used in suitable cleaning procedures for equipment exposed to heavy grease, fat and organic contamination.
Suitable for heavy-duty oven and cooking-equipment cleaning where the equipment manufacturer permits the use of sodium hydroxide.
Can be used for suitable blocked or contaminated drains where organic material, grease or fat is contributing to restricted flow.
Particularly useful where heavy grease and fat deposits require a strong alkaline cleaning agent.
Sodium hydroxide can be used in industrial effluent-treatment processes for applications such as pH adjustment and alkalinity control, subject to the requirements of the treatment system.
Sodium hydroxide is commonly associated with heavy-duty alkaline cleaning across food-processing environments because strong alkalis can help break down organic contamination.
Potential applications include:
The suitability of sodium hydroxide for a particular application depends on the equipment materials, concentration, temperature, contact time and cleaning procedure.
Sodium Hydroxide Caustic Pearls are a solid form of sodium hydroxide (NaOH), a powerful alkaline chemical widely used in industrial cleaning, process applications and wastewater treatment.
They can be used in suitable food-processing and industrial cleaning applications, provided the application, equipment materials, concentration and cleaning procedure are appropriate.
Caustic soda should not be regarded as automatically suitable for every food-contact surface. The cleaning process must include appropriate rinsing and verification procedures.
Sodium hydroxide is particularly effective against grease, fats, oils and other organic contamination.
Yes, sodium hydroxide can form part of heavy-duty oven and cooking-equipment cleaning procedures where its use is permitted by the equipment manufacturer and the appropriate cleaning procedure is followed.
Sodium hydroxide can be used for suitable drain-cleaning applications, particularly where grease, fats and organic material are contributing to a blockage.
Always check drain and pipe materials for compatibility before use.
Yes. Sodium hydroxide is used in industrial wastewater and effluent-treatment applications, including pH adjustment, where appropriate.
The product is currently supplied in 2.5 kg tubs.
