Product Description

Agar Novadet 5L Low-Alkaline Detergent – Commercial Floor Cleaner

Execute highly efficient, large-scale daily floor maintenance and achieve a flawless, residue-free presentation with the highly versatile Agar Novadet Low-Alkaline Detergent Concentrate. In the demanding commercial retail, hospitality, and corporate office sectors, relying on highly aggressive, cheap floor soaps is a massive operational failure. Strong chemicals permanently strip the glossy shine from sealed floors, and leave sticky residues that actively attract new dirt, causing the floor to look filthy within hours. This professional-grade commercial floor cleaner provides the ultimate, protective solution. Engineered as a highly concentrated, low-alkaline formula, it effortlessly lifts heavy food spills, sticky beverages, and daily traffic grime, while remaining incredibly gentle on expensive, highly polished floor finishes.

Designed for absolute worksite versatility and uncompromising operator safety, the Agar Novadet acts as the absolute gold standard for maintaining sensitive surfaces such as polished marble, slate, terrazzo, and glossy sealed vinyl. It is heavily equipped with highly biodegradable surfactants that evaporate completely cleanly, meaning the floor requires absolutely no secondary rinsing after mopping. Leaving behind a highly pleasant, fresh Rose fragrance, these premium commercial cleaning supplies and daily detergents provide facility managers and housekeeping teams with an indispensable, highly economical asset for ensuring massive corporate and public venues maintain an immaculate, protective, five-star presentation.

Who Is Agar Novadet Detergent Ideal For?

The Agar Novadet delivers a low-alkaline (pH 9) formula, residue-free drying, and a refreshing rose scent. It is highly recommended for:

Commercial Cleaning Contractors: Utilizing a highly robust, multi-surface commercial floor cleaner to rapidly mop expansive corporate office foyers and retail showrooms. The residual-free formula ensures the floor dries to a brilliant shine without dulling the expensive acrylic floor sealer.
Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities: Relying on the gentle, low-alkaline action to safely clean highly polished vinyl corridors. The fresh rose fragrance significantly improves the indoor environment, neutralizing stale odors without triggering chemical sensitivities in patients.
Hospitality & Hotel Housekeeping: Taking absolute advantage of its safety on natural stone. Housekeepers can use the exact same chemical to mop the high-end marble lobby, wipe down slate tiles, and sanitize sealed timber flooring rapidly without causing chemical etching.
Facility OH&S Managers: Deploying premium commercial cleaning supplies that prioritize environmental compliance. The highly biodegradable formulation ensures the facility's massive wastewater runoff does not severely damage municipal water treatment plants.

Key Features and Performance Benefits:

Low-Alkaline Formulation (pH 9): The ultimate daily maintenance advantage. It is aggressive enough to instantly break the chemical bond of food spills and oils, but gentle enough to ensure it does not permanently strip, dull, or damage delicate acrylic floor sealers (wax) or natural stone.
Flawless Residual-Free Finish: Prioritizes visual presentation. Standard floor soaps leave a sticky film that traps shoe dirt. This advanced surfactant blend evaporates completely cleanly, ensuring the floor maintains its original, high-gloss shine long after it has dried, without requiring a freshwater rinse.
Highly Concentrated Value: Reduces ongoing commercial overheads. The Novadet formula is incredibly strong and cost-effective. It can be diluted to just ¼ cup per 10L bucket for light daily mopping, providing exceptional, massive square-meter coverage per 5-Litre drum.
Autoscrubber Compatible: Maximizes worksite efficiency. The liquid is specifically formulated to perform flawlessly inside the solution tanks of massive commercial ride-on or walk-behind autoscrubbers, ensuring high-speed mechanical cleaning across massive warehouses and supermarkets.
Fresh Rose Fragrance: Enhances the working environment. Unlike harsh industrial solvents that leave a strong, burning chemical odor, this cleaner leaves a subtle, elegant floral scent, signaling to patrons that the area has been professionally detailed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a 'Low-Alkaline' formula mean?

Highly alkaline chemicals (like heavy degreasers) will instantly strip the glossy wax off a polished floor and etch natural marble. A 'Low-Alkaline' (pH 9) formula is incredibly gentle. It cleans the daily dirt and spills effectively while perfectly protecting the floor's expensive glossy finish.

Do I need to dilute this product with water?

YES. This is a highly concentrated commercial chemical. For standard daily mopping, mix ¼ cup of Novadet per 10 Litres of water. For heavy, stubborn dirt, increase the dosage to ¾ cup per 10 Litres of water.

Is this safe to use on polished Marble or Terrazzo?

Yes! This is one of its primary commercial applications. Natural stone like marble is incredibly sensitive to harsh acidic or heavy alkaline chemicals. Novadet is the industry standard for safely maintaining natural stone and polished concrete floors.

What does 'Residual-Free' mean?

Cheap supermarket floor cleaners leave a microscopic, sticky soap film on the tiles. This film acts like glue, instantly grabbing dirt from people's shoes, making the floor look filthy again within hours. This formula dries 100% cleanly, preventing rapid re-soiling.

Do I need to rinse the floor with clean water after mopping?

Generally, no. For standard daily cleaning, Novadet is designed to dry completely clear without a rinse. However, if you mixed the chemical extremely strong for a heavy-duty 'scrub-back', a quick rinse with clean water is recommended on high-polish floors.

Can I use this product in an autoscrubber floor machine?

Yes. It is highly effective for use in the solution tanks of commercial walk-behind or ride-on autoscrubbers. For small scrubbers, use ⅓ Litre per tank; for massive ride-on scrubbers, use ⅔ Litre per tank.

Will this product strip the old wax off my vinyl floor?

No. Agar Novadet is a daily 'Cleaner'. If you need to completely melt and remove decades of yellowed, scratched floor wax, you must purchase a highly aggressive, dedicated chemical floor 'Stripper' (such as Agar Super Strip).

Does it have a strong chemical smell?

No. It completely avoids the harsh, burning smell of cheap industrial ammonia or solvents. It leaves behind a very subtle, pleasant, and fresh Rose fragrance that acts as a highly effective room deodorizer.

Is this product environmentally safe?

Yes. The active cleaning surfactants in the Novadet formulation are classified as highly biodegradable, ensuring that massive volumes of mop water disposed of by commercial cleaners break down safely in municipal water treatment plants.

Can I use this to clean walls and benchtops?

Absolutely. It is a highly versatile hard surface detergent. When heavily diluted into a spray bottle or a small bucket, it is exceptionally effective at wiping down painted walls, doors, and commercial kitchen benchtops.

Should I wear gloves when using this?

While it is a mild, low-alkaline formula, the raw, undiluted concentrate is still a commercial detergent. If you handle the raw chemical daily, it can dry your skin out. You should wear standard nitrile gloves when mixing the chemical into your mop bucket.

Do you offer trade pricing for commercial cleaning companies?

Yes, Freshway Supplies provides highly competitive volume pricing and trade accounts for commercial cleaning contractors, hospital facility managers, and hard floor restoration experts ordering bulk chemicals. Contact us to establish your account.
