Sharing For Anyone Interested - New Safety Sign We Made & Posted By All Our "Low Temp-(sanitizing)" Commercial Dishwasher's Chemicals - Recommended

[jimtmcdaniels]

We care about our staff and these concentrated chemicals can dangerous and even cause permanent blindness or eat through your gas pipe next to the range(don't ask how we know!). Their SDS's are too long to print/post or even read/remember. So we made this simple all encompassing sign to post, all compressed nicely down.

Thought we'd share for those like minded:

 

 

COMMERCIAL DISHWASHER’S 3 LIQUID-CHEMICALS HANDLING/WARNINGS

 

These Are Highly Concentrated, NOT Like Your Home’s Mild & Slow Dishwasher Products.

 

*Hazards: Chemical Skin Burns/Holes/Permanent Blindness*

 

A Delayed/Sudden Burning Sensation Can Be Indicative Of Skin Exposure.

Handle With Care & Avoid Exposure. Wear PPE, Eye Glasses, Gloves & Long Sleeves.

 

Immediately After, Thoroughly Water Rinse/Mild Soap Wash:

Hands/Any Potentially Exposed Skin Areas/Clothing & Spills.

Eye Exposure: Water Rinse For 15+ Minutes.

Remove Contact Lense If Present, Once Easy To Do.

For A Serious Exposure/If Needed: Seek Medical Attention

 

Protect Containers From:

Damage/Fall/Impact. Acids/Other Purpose Chemicals. The Reach Of Children.

Remedy Any Leaks & Avoid Stacking. May be Highly Corrosive To Pipes/Metals.

Store In Suitable & Properly Labeled Containers.

 

 

1. DETERGENT:

Removes & Suspends Soils & Grease/Oil.

Typically Contains: A Very Strong Alkaline Formula, Such As Sodium Hydroxide.

 

2. RINSE AID:

Speeds Drying, & Reduces: Hard Water Spots/Streaks. Need For Hand Drying/Polishing, For A Sparkling Shine.

Typically Contains: Citric Acids, Alcohols And Other Things To Help Water Slip Off.

Concentrated Rinse Aid Is Relatively Skin Safe, Compared To Detergent Or Sanitizer.

 

3. SANITIZER:

Germicide/Disinfectant.

Typically Contains: Chlorine Based Bleaching Agents.

Never Allow This To Mix With Acid/Ammonia: Creates A Dangerous Chlorine Gas.

Even more proof that dishwashers are horrifically underpaid. Most of us customers have no idea about these things. I hope the dishes get rinsed thoroughly--I wouldn't want to ingest any of that stuff!
