Features and types
The detergents available in this section belong to the Uni5 by Interchem Italialine, designed for practical use with formats built to last over time.
Uni5 Dish Detergent Manual Washing 5 kg
The 5 kg format is designed for those who frequently use the sink: large families, as well as bars, trattorias and kitchens with a high volume of dishes to wash every day. The product has good degreasing power with lemon fragrance. The packaging reduces the frequency of purchase compared to standard bottles from large retailers.
Uni5 Pure Caustic Soda in Microspheres 1 kg
Caustic soda in microspheres is a tool for more intensive cleaning: drain cleaner for blocked pipes, degreaser on resistant surfaces such as stainless steel. The Interchem Italia package has a safety closure. Caution: do not use on aluminium, galvanised or chrome-plated alloys. Always rinse thoroughly with plenty of water after use.

How to choose
For the kitchen and sink
If the priority is to keep dishes clean without wasting product, the Uni5 Dish Detergent 5 kg is the most convenient choice in the long term. The maxi format is well suited to those who cook every day or manage a venue with frequent washing.
For intensive cleaning and drains
The Caustic Soda in Microspheres is not a daily detergent: it should be used when a more decisive intervention is needed, for example for slow drains or to degrease resistant surfaces. Just use a measured dose — 2-3 tablespoons to unblock — then rinse with hot water. It is not suitable for delicate surfaces such as marble or natural stone, nor for aluminium and galvanised alloys.
FAQ
What is the difference between caustic soda in microspheres and a normal dish detergent?
Caustic soda is a strong alkaline product, effective at dissolving fats and organic obstructions in drains. It is not a multi-purpose detergent: it is used in measured doses for specific interventions, with proper safety precautions (gloves, ventilation). Dish detergent, on the other hand, is formulated for daily use in contact with hands.
Is the Uni5 5 kg dish detergent also suitable for professional use?
Yes. The 5 kg format is suitable for both domestic use and contexts with high washing volume, such as kitchens in bars and restaurants. The package is practical to store and guarantees a low cost per wash.
Can caustic soda be used on all surfaces?
No. The Uni5 Pure Caustic Soda in Microspheres is suitable for drains and resistant surfaces such as stainless steel. Do not use on marble, natural stone, aluminium or galvanised and chrome-plated alloys: the product is corrosive on these materials.
Does Interchem Italia produce other household care products?
Yes. In addition to detergents, Interchem Italia offers liquid soaps and shower gels from the Nefel line — including the Nefel Silk Flowers Face & Hand Soap (480 ml) and the Nefel Bergamot and Vervain Shower Gel (480 ml) — available on the dedicated Interchem Italia page.
