Ecolab Softener Laundry Solid AQN2 96 oz/6 LBS (2/Case) - Premium softening performance, professional grade for Canadian food service
This is a professional-grade, concentrated solid fabric softener from Ecolab's AQN2 line, formulated for commercial washing machines and smart dispensing systems. It delivers consistent softening, antistatic control, and a fresh scent across high volumes of linens, towels, and uniforms. The solid format reduces waste compared to liquids and eliminates mess in the laundry room.
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 six cases to a Banff hotel group last month – they run 80 washers and reported a 20% drop in water heating costs by switching to cold cycles with this solid. Our customers like that the 2-pack per case means fewer changeovers. Keep a backup case in storage; it moves fast."
In the Canadian commercial laundry market, reducing energy consumption is a constant priority. This solid softener is built for cold water performance, meaning you can run wash cycles at 15°C or lower without losing softness or static control. The AQN2 formulation uses concentrated cationic surfactants that activate in lower temperatures. For restaurants and hotels running high volumes of table napery and guest towels, it also extends the life of fabrics by reducing friction during the rinse cycle. Pair it with your existing dispensing system or upgrade to an Ecolab smart unit for automatic dosing. For other maintenance and janitorial needs, check our non food range for complementary products.
