Ecolab Neutral Laundry Detergent 18.9L – Commercial Grade Canada
Ecolab Neutral Laundry Detergent Liquid 18.9L (4.9-gallon) pail is a concentrated commercial laundry soap for hotels, restaurants, and healthcare facilities. It removes soils and stains while preserving fabric colour and integrity, and works in cold, warm, or hot water. ChickenPieces.com ships this Ecolab neutral laundry detergent Canada-wide from Calgary.
This is a concentrated, neutral pH laundry liquid from Ecolab – the standard for commercial laundries in hotels, healthcare, and restaurants across Canada. Canadian operators pick it because it cleans without the fabric damage you get from high-alkaline detergents. A 120-room hotel in downtown Toronto switched to this and saw linen replacement costs drop by nearly a third in the first year.
Ecolab Detergent Laundry Liquid Neutral 18.9L/4.9 Gallon — Professional Grade for Canadian Food Service
This is a commercial-grade, concentrated liquid detergent formulated to a neutral pH for gentle but effective cleaning of all washable fabrics. It's the go-to for operations that need to protect high-end linens and uniforms while still cutting through everyday soil and body oils. You'll find it in the laundry rooms of major hotel chains, hospital laundries, and uniform services from Vancouver to St. John's.
Stocked by ChickenPieces.com at our Calgary distribution hub. Delivered Canada-wide all 10 provinces and 3 territories in 2-5 business days.
"We shipped 48 pails of this to a chain of 12 hotels in Banff last year. They run 300+ loads daily and reported zero foam overflow issues. The neutral pH means fewer colour-fade claims on white tablecloths, which saved them a headache. I keep 2 pails on hand for any large event laundry."
When you're running a commercial laundry operation in Canada, water hardness varies wildly – from the soft mountain water in the Rockies to the hard water on the Prairies. This neutral detergent handles that swing without requiring constant chemical adjustments. It's also fully compatible with cold water wash cycles, which means real energy savings in facilities running multiple shifts. After switching, one Edmonton hotel cut their hot water heating costs by 18% while maintaining linen quality.
For operators managing both kitchen uniforms and front-of-house linens, this neutral formula avoids the yellowing that high-alkaline detergents cause on synthetic blends. It's part of our non-food range, but it runs adjacent to everything else you need for a full-service operation.
Quality & Specifications
This is a concentrated liquid detergent with a neutral pH (around 7.0 on the scale). It contains a proprietary blend of surfactants, builders, and enzymes designed for commercial laundry equipment. The 18.9L (4.9 gallon) plastic pail yields approximately 320 to 640 loads at standard dosing (1-2 oz per 30 lb load). No phosphates. Controlled-foam formulation prevents overflow in high-efficiency machines.
Professional Applications
Hotel and resort linen programs for sheets, pillowcases, duvet covers, and terry. Healthcare patient gowns and bed sheets where gentle pH matters for sensitive skin. Restaurant uniform washing including chef coats, server aprons, and kitchen towels. Institutional laundry for retirement homes, conference centres, and university residences. Works across all water temperatures – cold, warm, or hot.
Storage & Handling
Store between 4°C and 32°C (40°F-90°F) in a dry area away from sunlight. Keep the lid sealed tight to prevent contamination. Shelf life is 1-2 years from manufacture date when stored correctly. If exposed to freezing temperatures and the liquid separates, let it thaw and stir gently – do not shake. Rotate stock so you're always using the oldest pail first.
