AlmaWin Dishwasher Products
When good friends are invited for dinner, time flies by. When the guests leave, the only thing left of the lovely evening is usually a large mountain of dishes. No other housework is postponed as often as washing-up. Inventors and engineers therefore tried to develop a device for this work almost 200 years ago. At the world exhibition in 1893 the first mechanical dishwasher was presented. Nearly 30 years later, the first electric machine came onto the market. Today almost 70% of all German households have a dishwasher. In addition to the luxury of not washing the plates by hand, the water saving is also a solid argument. On average, 50% less water and 28% less energy are consumed when washing with a machine than when washing up by hand. To this surprising result came a comparative study of researchers of the University of Bonn.
In Germany, an estimated 1,700.00 tons of detergents flow into the drain each year. The cleansing substances contained therein, the surfactants, are produced from petroleum-based agents in many conventional detergents. Since surfactants foam very strongly, they are only used sparingly in the dishwasher. Instead, the dirt on plates, glasses and dishes is often solved by strong silicate lye. These are mineral raw materials, which can be caustic in high concentrations.
The water must be soft so that the dishes in the machine can be cleansed properly. Therefore, machine cleaners contain softeners. Many conventional dishwashing detergents use phosphates for this purpose. Phosphates are the salts of phosphoric acid. Since not all sewage treatment plants can successfully filter out these phosphates, they still reach the domestic waters. Eco detergents, on the other hand, are generally free of phosphate. Although the eco dish detertents dispense with many aggressive ingredients, they don't have to shy away from the comparison with conventional cleaners. But since they do without persistent water-softeners, the dishwasher must always be adjusted correctly. It is particularly important to regularly renew the regeneration salt in the storage container.
Hard water contains many calcium and magnesium ions, which can also promote calcification. To soften the water, these ions have to be removed or replaced. In the dishwasher, this is the task of the so-called ion exchanger. In simplest terms, the ion exchanger consists of a surface on which, e.g. calcium ions can be sequestered. When the surface is saturated, the bound ions are replaced by sodium ions from the regenerating salt. Through this exchange of the ions, the water is finally soft enough to be used for dishwashing in the machine. For the successful use of eco dish detergents, you should always keep an eye on the level of the regeneration salt.
With the ecological AlmaWin dishwasher products you naturaly get clean dishes. With the tried and tested modular concept, you dose economically and environmentally responsible. AlmaWin uses selected raw materials of vegetable and mineral origin for its products. For a perfect washing result the AlmaWin Dishwashing Powder is combined with the Clear Rinsing Agent and the Salt for Dishwashers. If you prefer tabs, you can use the AlmaWin Dishwashing Tabs instead of the Dishwashing Powder. The practical modular concept allows the products to be matched to the water hardness grade and to the degree of soiling of the dishes. This means that only the moduls that are really needed can be used. For heavily discolored tea and coffee sets, add a little AlmaWin Oxygen Bleaching Agent to the dosing chamber. It is reasonable to clean the inside of the dishwasher at regular intervals: For this the AlmaWin Dishwasher Cleaner helps you. The concentrate is sufficient for two applications and frees your dishwasher from furring. Discover a yielding and powerful alternative to conventional products with the AlmaWin dishwashing products. Regarding the dosage please pay attention to the manufacturer's instructions for your dishwasher.
