Dacid HF SANS1828 Food-Grade High-Foam Acid Descaler & Cleaner 5L (PROFESSIONAL RANGE)

Strip away heavy mineral deposits, stubborn milk stone, beer stone and protein stains effortlessly with Dacid HF 5L. This high-specification acidic descaler is specifically engineered with an advanced high-foaming (HF) matrix to handle the most demanding cleaning tasks in food-sensitive environments.

Formulated to meet rigid international health and safety guidelines, Dacid HF fully complies with the SANS 1828 South African National Standard for chemical detergents used in the food industry. Its specialized high-foam formulation generates a dense, stable blanket of foam that clings aggressively to vertical walls, processing pipelines and stainless-steel tanks. This maximum contact time allows the acid to break down tough calcium scale, uric acid encrustation, rust streaks and oxide films without immediate runoff. The concentrated bulk 5-litre container offers extreme dilution ratios, delivering an exceptionally cost-effective descaling asset for dairies, breweries, food factories and commercial kitchens.

Key Features & Benefits

• SANS 1828 Certified Food-Safe: Formally tested and certified chemical profile ensures total legal compliance for descaling machinery, tanks and equipment in food zones.
• High-Foam (HF) Clinging Action: Creates a thick foam blanket that adheres to vertical equipment surfaces, maximizing chemical dwell time to minimize manual scrubbing.
• Aggressive Mineral Descaling: Rapidly dissolves thick limescale, hard-water mineral deposits, milk stone, beer stone and oxidized rust layers on contact.
• Brightens Stainless Steel: Chemically strips away dull oxide films, restoring original surface brilliance and pristine hygiene to industrial food equipment.
• Advanced Low-Taint Formula: Formulated to rinse away completely with water, ensuring zero toxic chemical residues or heavy aromas are left behind on food-contact surfaces.
• Super Concentrated Bulk 5L Pack: Highly dilutable bulk liquid pack that lowers your operational material cost per square metre of industrial descaling.

Multi-Surface Food Industry Applications

Dacid HF is engineered for deep cleaning, rust removal and descaling of acid-resistant industrial equipment:

• Dairies & Breweries: Descaling milk holding tanks, pasteurizers, fermentation vats, bright beer tanks and stainless-steel lines.
• Abattoirs & Processing: Cleaning stainless steel shackle lines, processing tables, meat moulds, hooks and industrial cooking vessels.
• Commercial Kitchens: Descaling commercial dishwasher interiors, bain-maries, steam tables, boilers and greasy tiled wash bays.
• Equipment Care: Removing white efflorescence salt blooms from damp walls, floor tile grout and masonry surfaces.

Recommended Dilution Guide

• Heavy-Duty Descaling & Rust Stripping (1:5 to 1:10): Mix 100ml to 200ml of Dacid HF per 1 litre of water. Apply via foam gun or brush, allow to dwell for 10 minutes, scrub and rinse thoroughly.
• Medium-Duty Routine Descaling (1:20 to 1:50): Mix 20ml to 50ml per 1 litre of water for food processing machinery exteriors, washing equipment casings and stainless-steel surfaces.
• Light-Duty Brightening Wash (1:100): Mix 100ml per 10 litres of water in a mop bucket or pressure washer for routine tile scrubbing and large-scale wall maintenance.
• Note: Always pre-rinse the target area with water before applying the acid solution.

⚠️ Critical Safety & Handling Information

CORROSIVE ACIDIC CHEMICAL. CAUSES SEVERE SKIN BURNS AND EYE DAMAGE. This product is for commercial and industrial use only. Always wear heavy-duty acid-resistant gloves, full eye protection face shields, long sleeves and safety boots during handling or mixing.

NEVER mix Dacid HF with chlorine bleach, sodium hypochlorite, ammonia, alkaline degreasers or any other chemical compounds, as doing so will instantly release lethal, highly toxic chlorine gases or cause violent chemical reactions. Always add acid to water, never water to acid when mixing. Ensure the area is thoroughly ventilated. Keep securely sealed and stored strictly out of reach of children and untrained individuals.
