Always handle concentrates with protective gloves and eye protection.
Avoid inhalation of mists and prevent splashing into eyes. If contact occurs, rinse immediately with water and seek medical advice if irritation persists.
Do not mix with acids, bleach (unless product label permits) or other household chemicals—mixing can create hazardous gases or reduce efficacy.
Keep containers closed and out of reach of children. Use safe manual handling practices for large drums.
Store in original, labelled containers in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Keep away from incompatible materials (strong acids, oxidisers).
Avoid freezing; if frozen, allow to reach room temperature and mix thoroughly before use.
Typical shelf life: 12–24 months depending on product and storage conditions—refer to label.
AUTODISH SP — optimised for soft to medium hardness areas; delivers improved rinse and prevents film in softer water where local deposits differ.
AUTODISH & RINSE AID — formulated to perform across soft, medium and hard water ranges; use correct dosing for local hardness to avoid scale or spotting.
DISHWASH GOLD, DOUBLE-BUBBLE, GARLAND, POTWASH — effective in most hardness levels when diluted appropriately; in very hard water, increase rinse aid dosage or use water softening where possible.
Recommendation: measure local water hardness (mg/L CaCO₃ or dH). Adjust machine dosing and rinse aid for medium–high hardness to prevent spotting and scale.

Yes — most Agar dishwash formulas work across soft, medium and hard water. For very hard water, increase rinse aid dosing or use water softening measures and follow machine manufacturer dosing guidance to avoid scaling and spotting.
Follow your dishwasher manufacturer’s dosing recommendation. Typical commercial practice is 1–3 g/L for machine detergents; AUTODISH SP may require lower rinse aid or adjusted dosing in soft water. Always test and adjust dosing based on soil load and water hardness.
