Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

'The Thirsty Fox', a popular gastropub in Harrogate, was struggling with persistent cloudiness on their glassware, forcing staff to spend valuable time hand-polishing glasses before service.

"We were fighting a losing battle with watermarks and  that dull film on our glasses. It just didn't reflect the quality we aim for. Since switching to the Proton detergent, the difference is night and  day. The glasses come out looking brand new, every single time."

Robert Davies – General Manager

The pub has now completely eliminated hand-polishing, saving an estimated 6 hours of staff labour per week and  improving the presentation of every drink served.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always wear appropriate PPE (gloves and  eye protection) when handling the container.
  • Connect the feed tube from your glasswasher's automatic dosing system securely to the container.
  • Ensure the machine is calibrated to the correct dosage for this specific detergent – check your machine's manual.
  • Run a couple of empty cycles to ensure the detergent is flowing correctly through the system.

Keeping It Going

  • Store containers upright in a cool, dry, and  well-ventilated area.
  • Keep away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and  foodstuffs.
  • Always keep the cap tightly sealed on the container when not in use.
  • Regularly check dosing tubes for any kinks, blockages or crystallisation to ensure consistent performance.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Cleaning Chemicals

Not sure which chemical is right for your kitchen? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Concentration vs. Cost

A cheaper chemical isn't always better value. Highly concentrated formulas like this one cost more upfront but last much longer as you use less per cycle, saving money in the long run.

Water Hardness Matters

The water in your area significantly affects cleaning results. Look for products specifically formulated to work well in both hard and  soft water to ensure consistent performance.

System Compatibility

Ensure the chemical is designed for your type of equipment. This detergent is made for commercial glasswashers with automatic dosing systems, not for manual washing or domestic dishwashers.

Safety and  Handling (COSHH)

Professional chemicals require careful handling. Always check the safety data sheet (SDS) and  ensure your staff are trained on COSHH procedures for storage and  use.

Environmental Impact

Consider the full lifecycle of the product. Choosing chemicals with recyclable packaging is a small but important step in making your business more sustainable.

How A Special Formula Eliminates Glass Renovation

Ever wonder what that cloudy, milky film on old glasses is? It’s a build-up of hard water deposits and  detergent residue that regular washing can't shift, forcing you into a time-consuming 'renovation' cycle with special chemicals. The Proton HW528 formula is designed to prevent this build-up from ever starting. Think of it like a non-stick pan for your glasses; its active ingredients create a barrier that stops these deposits from clinging to the glass surface in the first place. This means your glasses stay looking 'like new' for far longer, saving you hours of labour and  the cost of extra cleaning agents every month.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Pubs & Bars

    For consistently clean pint and  cocktail glasses, even during the busiest weekend rush, using this glasswash detergent 5L for bars is a must.

  • Restaurants & Bistros

    To ensure wine glasses and  tumblers are impeccably clean and  streak-free, enhancing the overall dining experience for your patrons.
