Dustbane De-Foam Foam Suppressor, 5 L/1.3 Gallon – Commercial Grade

⚡ Quick Answer

Dustbane De-Foam Foam Suppressor 5 L is a Canadian-made foam control solution for commercial cleaning operators, including janitorial services, facility management, and industrial maintenance teams. It is used in carpet extractors, auto-scrubbers, wet vacuums, and parts washers to prevent foam buildup and downtime. ChickenPieces.com ships Dustbane De-Foam Canada-wide from Calgary.

Dustbane De-Foam is a liquid concentrate foam suppressor built for carpet extractors, auto-scrubbers, wet vacuums, and parts washers. Professional cleaning crews across Canada use it to stop foam from shutting down machines mid-job. A facility in Edmonton running three auto-scrubbers on a 100,000 square foot retail floor found this 5 L jug cut their foam-related stoppages by half, saving roughly 20 minutes per shift.

Jamie's Take · Senior Operator @ ChickenPieces

"I've seen a facility burn through a litre of foam suppressor in a week because they were using a high-foam detergent. This 5L jug lasted them two months. Our customers using auto-scrubbers on tile-and-grout jobs like the 1-3 oz dosethey get consistent foam control without measuring fuss. We stock it year-round."

For janitorial crews and industrial cleaning teams, foam is more than an annoyanceit's a productivity killer. Floor machines that shut off every few minutes waste water, chemicals, and time. Dustbane De-Foam eliminates that by knocking down foam on contact. You'll use 1-3 oz per application, depending on how aggressive your detergent is. For high-foam situations like protein-based spills or heavy-soil extraction, you'll want the higher end of that range. See our non food range for compatible cleaning accessories.
