Keystone Dishwashing Liquid Heavy Duty 9.46L/2.5 Gallon
This is a concentrated commercial detergent for Canadian restaurants, hotels, cafeterias, and catering operations. It handles baked-on grease and controls spotting in hard water for both dishwashers and manual pot washing. ChickenPieces.com ships Keystone dishwashing liquid Canada-wide from Calgary.
Keystone Detergent Dishwashing Liquid Heavy Duty 9.46L/2.5 Gallon is a concentrated formula built for continuous wash cycles in busy Canadian kitchens. Operators pick it because it holds up in both high-temp and low-temp chemical dishwashers, handles hard water without spotting, and keeps working when you're slinging hundreds of covers a day. A Banff hotel kitchen ran 400 plates an hour on this pail for three weeks straight and dropped spotting complaints to zero after tuning the feed rate.
Keystone Detergent Dishwashing Liquid Heavy Duty 9.46L/2.5 Gallon: Professional Grade for Canadian Food Service
This is a heavy duty liquid concentrate, not a retail rinse aid. The surfactant blend lifts baked-on grease and food soils, water conditioners handle mineral hardness, and solid-suspending agents keep residue from redepositing on plates and glassware. It's built for continuous feed systems on commercial washers, and it also works as a soak or manual pot and pan detergent when you measure it properly.
Stocked by ChickenPieces.com at our Calgary distribution hub. Delivered coast-to-coast across all 10 provinces and 3 territories in 2-5 business days.
"We shipped 87 of these to a Banff hotel kitchen with a high-temp Hobart that runs 400 plates per hour. The concentrate held up three weeks longer than the previous brand, and they dropped spotting complaints to zero after tuning the feed rate. Keep a spare pail for peak season."
Here's the thing about professional dishwashing detergent. It's about chemistry, dosing, and consistency, not smell or colour. Keystone's concentrate gives you a stable formula that you can run through a feed pump at an industrial rate. It stays active at higher temperatures, and you'll get fewer brittle spots and less film on glasses than with a weaker ready-to-use liquid. When you're running a full service in Calgary during Stampede week, you'll want a detergent that keeps up with your machine and your own standards.

Quality & Specifications
Heavy duty liquid concentrate in a 9.46L pail. It contains non-ionic surfactants for grease lifting, water conditioners to manage mineral hardness, and solid-suspending agents to keep soils out of the wash tank. It's safe for stainless steel, glass, china, and most plastics when used per label, and it works in both high-temp and low-temp chemical machines.
Professional Applications
Built for continuous wash cycles in high-temp commercial dishwashers and low-temp chemical dishwashers. Works equally well in manual pot and pan sinks for baked-on casserole dishes, saucepans, and sheet pans. High-volume restaurants, hotels, cafeterias, and banquets in Canadian cities depend on it.
Storage & Handling
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the pail sealed when not in use to prevent contamination. Avoid temperatures below 10°C; freezing can affect the blend. For longest life, use a dedicated pump or dispensing tube so you don't introduce food or water back into the container.
Canadian Sourcing
Manufactured with traceable quality and certified as marked on the label. We keep it stocked at our Calgary distribution centre so operators across the country get consistent supply. From Victoria to St. John's, and all the way up to Whitehorse, every Canadian order ships from the same inventory pool with the same shelf-life guarantee.
