Details
A concentrated, 100% plant-derived kitchen cleaning gel engineered for Indian cooking soils, delivering 22.00% Active Surfactant Matter at a skin-neutral pH 5.80. Stubborn ghee, mustard oil, baked turmeric, and heavy cooking residues lift off a full sink of cookware with about 5 ml on a wet scrub, without stripping the natural barrier lipids off your hands.
- 100% Plant-Derived Surfactant Engine: Built on non-ethoxylated Sodium Coco-Sulfate (SCS 10.00% active) paired with renewable sugar surfactants (Coco-Glucoside 5.00% active, Lauryl Glucoside 3.00% active) and coconut betaine (CAPB 4.00% active). This eliminates petroleum LAS (LABSA), ethoxylation, and 1,4-dioxane risks entirely, while delivering rich micellar lather and cutting grease instantly.
- Dermal Integrity & Skin Acid Mantle (pH 5.80): Formulated at measured pH 5.80 +/- 0.20 neat, matching the human skin's natural acidic mantle (pH 4.7–5.8). Unlike caustic alkaline cleaners or harsh synthetic degreasers, washing a full sink does not strip epidermal lipids or leave fingertips dry, tight, and cracked.
- Hard Water Protection (1.00% Food-Grade Citrate): Contains 1.00% food-grade trisodium citrate dihydrate to chelate tap water calcium and magnesium hardness ions. Glassware and stainless steel dry crystal-clear without cloudy mineral haze or white lime spots, without using persistent synthetic EDTA.
- Food-Grade Multi-Hurdle Preservation: Preserved with food-grade Sodium Benzoate (0.50%) and Potassium Sorbate (0.30%), operating at peak antimicrobial efficacy at pH 5.80. Strictly zero isothiazolinone biocides (no MIT, CMIT, or BIT) and zero formaldehyde releasers.
- Transparent Fragrance & Allergen Declaration: Scented with 0.40% pure cold-pressed Indian lime essential oil (Citrus aurantifolia). Because natural citrus oils contain declarable allergens, we openly quantify all 26 EU declarable allergens on the pack: Limonene 0.24%, Citral 0.02%, and Linalool under 0.01%. Strictly zero synthetic parfum.
- Ultra-Clean Rinse Safety (APHA 5540 C): Tested to APHA 5540 C (MBAS), confirming under 0.10 mg anionic surfactant residue per vessel after a 5-litre running water rinse. Suitable for infant feeding bottles, baby cutlery, stainless steel and seasoned cast iron. Always rinse under running tap water, as no cleaning product rinses clean in a still bucket.
- Dye-Free Natural Translucence: 100% added dye-free. Natural pale champagne translucence from lime peel oil and plant glucosides; zero synthetic coal-tar dyes (no tartrazine CI 19140 or patent blue CI 42051).
- How to Use & Dosage Yield: Apply about 5 ml (roughly one teaspoon) onto a wet sponge or scrubber, lather, and wash dishes thoroughly before rinsing under running tap water. One 500 ml bottle yields 100 sinks of dishes; the 1 L bottle yields 200 sinks; and the 2 L refill pouch yields 400 sinks.
- Gel vs Bar Selection Guide: At 5 ml per sink, cost is Rs 1.49 per sink (500 ml), Rs 1.30 (1 L), and Rs 1.07 (2 L refill). The calcite Dishwash Bar in this range costs Rs 0.60 per sink and is engineered for stainless steel and heavy carbon; this Dishwash Gel is engineered for PTFE non-stick, delicate glassware, infant tableware, and gentle hand care.
- Recyclable Packaging: Packaged in 100% recyclable translucent HDPE bottles with polypropylene flip-top dispensing caps (3.5 mm orifice). The 2 L mono-material PE refill pouch reduces plastic packaging weight by 80% per litre.

- Isothiazolinone biocides (MIT, CMIT, BIT)
- Replaced by food-additive grade Sodium Benzoate (0.50%) and Potassium Sorbate (0.30%). Zero sensitizing biocides.
- Synthetic coal-tar dyes
- 100% Dye-Free (0.00%). Replaced by natural pale champagne translucence from cold-pressed lime oil and plant glucosides. Zero CI 19140 or CI 42051.

- Sinks per pack
- 100 full sinks from the 500 ml bottle; 200 sinks from the 1 L bottle; 400 sinks from the 2 L refill pouch.
- Cost per sink
- Rs 1.49 per sink (500 ml bottle), Rs 1.30 per sink (1 L bottle), and Rs 1.07 per sink (2 L refill pouch).
- Selection against the bar
- The calcite Dishwash Bar in this range is Rs 0.60 per sink for stainless steel and carbon; this Gel is engineered for PTFE non-stick, glass, and hand care.

- Infant feeding bottles
- Suitable for baby feeding bottles, infant cutlery and tiffins, rinsed under running water as directed (rinse residue specified below 0.10 mg MBAS). Keep bottle out of reach of children.
- Burnt cookware guidance
- Soak heavy burnt grease for 10 minutes in warm water with 5 ml gel before scrubbing, or use the calcite Dishwash Bar for stubborn baked carbon.
