Expert Analysis
Built around C12-14 fatty alkyl ether sulphate as the primary cleaning agent, this concentrate uses a blend of anionic and nonionic surfactants to generate substantial foam while maintaining pH neutrality. The balanced surfactant system provides strong dirt dissolution while remaining gentle enough for regular use on protected surfaces.
