A high-foaming, chlorinated alkaline detergent designed to cling to vertical walls and complex machinery to lift persistent organic films. Formulated as Sanifoam, it provides deep chemical breakdown of fat deposits and protein bonds while delivering deep sanitisation across meat processing bays, abattoirs, and food manufacturing cleanrooms.
Overview & MPI Approval
Sanifoam is a heavy-duty, high-foaming alkaline chlorinated cleaner and sanitiser specifically engineered for the food, beverage, and dairy processing industries. Combining powerful caustic sodium hydroxide (<15%) with active chlorine (<30%), Sanifoam rapidly cuts through stubborn fats, protein films, grease, and blood stains while delivering deep surface sanitisation.
MPI APPROVED (C-38 / C-31): Passed for use in all food processing areas, abattoirs, and farm dairies when used in accordance with label directions.
Key Features & Benefits
- Dual-Action Cleaning & Sanitising: Alkaline builders break down heavy fat and protein deposits while active chlorine eliminates bacteria and microorganisms in a single pass.
- High-Cling Foam Action: Clings to vertical walls, overhead structures, and complex processing machinery for extended contact time and thorough decontamination.
- Odour Removal & Stain Removal: Bleaches out organic stains and eliminates foul odours in refuse bays and animal housing.
- Rinse-Clean Formula: Leaves hard contact surfaces clean, sanitised, and residue-free after a potable water rinse.
Dilution Ratios & Application Guide
Important: Always dilute Sanifoam with cold or cool potable water. Do NOT mix with hot water, as heat rapidly decomposes active chlorine and releases hazardous fumes.
| Application Method | Dilution Ratio | Dwell & Contact Time | Instructions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Foam Applicator / Gun | 10 mL – 50 mL per Litre (1% – 5% solution) (1:100 – 1:20 mix) | 10 – 15 minutes | Apply cold foam evenly across surfaces and machinery. Allow foam to cling and break down soils, then rinse thoroughly with clean potable water. |
| Manual Wiping & Scrubbing | 20 mL per Litre (2% solution / 1:50 mix) | 10 – 15 minutes | Apply solution liberally using a damp cloth, sponge, or brush on hard surfaces. Allow dwell time, then rinse thoroughly. |
| Soaking / Immersion | 20 mL per Litre (2% solution / 1:50 mix) | 10 – 30 minutes | Submerge heavily soiled utensils or removable components in cool/ambient solution. Rinse thoroughly with potable water before reuse. |

📦 How We Calculate Shipping
Because we supply professional-grade, highly concentrated liquids in 5L, 20L, and bulk drum configurations, our packages are significantly heavier than standard retail items.
To ensure fairness, we do not inflate our product prices to offer “fixed price” shipping. Instead, we pass on direct courier rates calculated strictly by the total deadweight of your order at the final checkout screen.
⏱️ Estimated Delivery Windows
We ship nationwide across New Zealand from our local facility using trusted heavy-goods industrial couriers.
Auckland Region: 1–2 business days
Rest of North Island: 2–3 business days
South Island: 3–5 business days
Note: Please allow an additional 1–2 days for Rural Delivery (RD) addresses.
💡 Pro-Tip for Smart Buying
The heavier the box, the cheaper the courier rate becomes per kilogram. Consolidating your cleaning liquids or bulk chemical orders into a single purchase dramatically dilutes the final freight impact on your total basket value.
