DESCRIPTION:
“BIO-GREEN TOILET AND BATHROOM CLEANER” is a new generation cleaner
and sanitiser with a unique mix of plant based acids and wetting agents boosted with
natural eucalyptus oils.
Bathroom and toilet bowl cleaners traditionally rely on mineral acids like hydrochloric
and phosphoric acid to remove scale, rust, soap scum, bacteria, mould and water
marks from surfaces. “BIOGREEN TOILET & BATHROOM CLEANER” utilizes two
naturally derived food acids to attack these stains, ie CITRIC ACID and GLYCOLIC
ACID.
Glycolic acid occurs naturally as a trace component in sugarcane, beets, grapes and
fruits. Glycolic Acid (hydroxyacetic acid) is the first member of the series of alphahydroxy carboxylic acids, which means it is one of the smallest organic molecules with
both acid and alcohol functionality.
The high water solubility and small molecular size of Glycolic Acid allows it to penetrate
deep inside dirt residues and react from within. Highly soluble in water, Glycolic Acid
is also easy to rinse. It biodegrades at a rate of 89% in 7 days, is non-flammable by
nature, and is the versatile liquid that is both safer to handle and easy to use. It is this
unique combination of properties that make it the ideal cleaner for maintaining
bathroom surfaces.
Citric acid is an organic acid found in citrus fruits. It is a natural preservative and is
also used to add an acidic (sour) taste to foods and soft drinks. It also serves as an
environmentally benign cleaning agent and acts as an antioxidant. Citric acid exists in
a variety of fruits and vegetables, but it is most concentrated in lemons and limes,
where it can comprise as much as 8% of the dry weight of the fruit.
“BIO-GREEN TOILET AND BATHROOM CLEANER” is the organic acid cleaner of
choice for cleaning hard surfaces like ceramic tile, grout, tubs, sinks, toilet bowls,
shower doors and stalls. With a low pKa and molecular weight, it makes short work of
soap scum and mineral scales, removing soil thoroughly.
The product has a clinging action which enhances penetration, removing rust stains,
scale deposits and stubborn stains from porcelain, brass, stainless steel and tiles.
“BIO-GREEN TOILET AND BATHROOM CLEANER” is a strong detergent and
sanitizer that is suitable for use on most bathroom surfaces:-

GREY WATER USE:
Grey water regulations vary from state to state and it’s important to be aware of local
state and council rules. Grey water is household waste-water from the bathroom, hand
basin, shower, and laundry.
The components of cleaning products most likely to cause problems are phosphorus,
salinity, sodium, and pH.
•
P – Phosphorus: Small amounts of phosphorus can be useful for plants, and it’s a
major component of fertiliser. When it gets into waterways, however, it can cause
excessive algal growth, leading to toxic algal blooms. The effect on your soil is varied
depending on your soil type. Clay soils can deal with more phosphorus because the
phosphorus binds to clay minerals and doesn’t leach away. On sandy soils, excess
phosphorus can leach into groundwater. Australian soils are typically low in
phosphorus, and some native species can’t tolerate high levels.
Salinity: All laundry detergents contain salts, typically sodium salts such as sodium
nitrate, sodium sulphate, sodium phosphate and sodium silicate. Laundry detergents
are generally highly saline, and frequent long-term use would likely harm your garden,
unless it was spread over a large area.
Na- Sodium: Sodium in the salts is particularly detrimental not only to plants, but soils.
It affects the soil’s permeability and causes a loss of structural stability.
pH : Laundry detergents are generally highly alkaline (that is, have a high pH): a pH
higher than 10 helps dissolve organic dirt, such as grease, oils and food scraps. Strong
mineral acids like conventional toilet bowl cleaners cause very low pH. Most biological
systems prefer a pH between 6 and 9, and grey water with a high pH or low pH is likely
to harm many plants and soil organisms.
“BIO-GREEN TOILET AND BATHROOM CLEANER” has been designed to be
‘grey water safe’ – it breaks down into nutrients that are safe for the garden. It
contains - 0% sodium, is free of phosphate, and has a mildly acidic pH (2.0) that is
easily increased with water dilution
