Effectively resolve some of the most difficult challenges in commercial floor care with the highly specialized Actichem CTR (Coffee & Tannin Remover) AP490.

Formulated with a fast-acting, low pH base and powerful emulsifiers, it aggressively targets and breaks down tannin and dye stains, allowing them to be rinsed away cleanly.
Engineered for maximum versatility by professional carpet technicians, Actichem CTR is not just a spot cleaner; it is also a highly effective corrective treatment for cellulosic browning on sensitive wool carpets caused by over-wetting or high alkalinity. It is supplied as a ready-to-use liquid that can also be diluted 1:1 for lighter staining applications. Safe for use on most synthetic carpets, natural wool, and delicate upholstery fabrics, these premium commercial cleaning chemicals provide professional carpet cleaners and facility managers with a highly reliable, essential tool for flawless post-cleaning stain restoration.
Who Is Actichem CTR Coffee & Tannin Remover Ideal For?
The Actichem AP490 delivers a specialized low pH formula, powerful tannin emulsifiers, and versatile application methods. It is highly recommended for:
-
Commercial Carpet Cleaners: Utilizing a highly advanced carpet stain remover to efficiently tackle severe coffee and tea spills in corporate offices, ensuring high-value clients are left with flawlessly restored carpets.
-
Flood Restoration Technicians: Relying on the acidic formulation to effectively correct and reverse cellulosic browning and watermarks that appear on carpets and rugs after severe water damage or over-wetting.
-
Hospitality & Hotel Housekeeping: Taking advantage of the fast-acting spot treatment to remove red wine and beverage stains from dining room carpets and delicate lounge upholstery before they set permanently.
-
Facility Maintenance Teams: Deploying premium bulk cleaning supplies to manage everyday spills across high-traffic retail spaces without needing to call in expensive external carpet cleaning contractors for minor spots.
Key Features and Performance Benefits:
-
Targeted Tannin Stain Removal: The ultimate spot-cleaning advantage. It is chemically engineered specifically to break the bond of natural plant dyes found in coffee, tea, red wine, and fruit juices, lifting them from the carpet fiber.
-
Corrects Cellulosic Browning: Essential for professional restoration. When wool or cotton carpets are over-wet or cleaned with high-alkaline chemicals, they turn brown. This low pH formula safely neutralizes the alkalinity and reverses the browning effect instantly.
-
Safe on Wool & Upholstery: Protects your client's assets. While highly effective on stains, the formulation is gentle enough to be used safely on delicate natural wool carpets and sensitive fabric upholstery when used as directed.
-
Fast-Acting Emulsifiers: Highly efficient workflow. The chemical begins working immediately upon contact, reducing the dwell time required and minimizing the amount of physical agitation needed to remove the stain.
-
Flexible Dilution Rates: Provides excellent commercial value. It can be used neat directly from the bottle for severe, old stains, or diluted 1:1 with water for treating lighter stains or large areas of browning.
