Product Information
Full details
The Janit-X Professional Extra Thick Bleach is an ideal sanitation solution for facility managers and professional cleaners who require a heavy-duty, concentrated disinfectant that adheres to surfaces for maximum effectiveness. Its primary benefit lies in its thickened, low-odour formula, which ensures long-lasting contact time on vertical surfaces like toilets and drain pipes without the risk of irritating, pungent fumes; however, users should note that the 5-litre bulk size requires careful handling and storage to prevent accidental contact with sensitive surfaces or fabrics.

FAQs
Is this bleach safe to use on all floor types?
It is suitable for most commercial hard floors, but avoid using it on wood, carpet, or non-colourfast materials as it may cause bleaching or damage.
Can I use this product in a spray bottle?
While the product is thickened, it can be sprayed; however, ensure you wear a mask and eye protection, as even 'low-odour' formulations can cause irritation if atomized into the air.
How long should I leave it in the toilet bowl for the best results?
For maximum disinfection and whitening, it is recommended to leave the bleach to cling to the surface for at least 10 minutes before scrubbing and flushing.
Can I mix this bleach with other detergents?
No. Never mix this bleach with ammonia, vinegar, or other acidic cleaners, as this creates hazardous chlorine gas.
Is this product suitable for septic tanks?
Use caution with septic systems. Small, infrequent amounts are generally acceptable, but frequent or heavy dosing can disrupt the beneficial bacteria in the septic tank.
Troubleshooting
The bleach is too thick to pour easily from the 5-litre jug.
Consider decanting the product into a smaller, ergonomic bottle with a nozzle or using a professional-grade soap dispenser pump that fits the standard neck size.
Accidental contact with non-washable fabric.
Immediately flush the area with copious amounts of water to neutralize the concentration, then blot dry. Do not rub, as this may spread the chemical deeper into the fibers.
Odour persists despite cleaning.
Ensure that the bleach was allowed enough contact time (at least 5-10 minutes) before rinsing. If the drain is still smelling, the organic matter may be too deep for liquid treatment alone.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Adheres well to vertical surfaces like toilet bowls and drain pipes
- Significantly reduced fume levels compared to standard household bleach
- Highly concentrated, offering excellent value for professional, high-volume use
- Effective at neutralizing deep-set or persistent organic odors
- Safe for use on a wide variety of industrial floor types and waste infrastructure
Cons
- 5-litre bulk container can be heavy and awkward to pour without a pump or dispenser
- Requires proper storage to prevent accidental spills or chemical degradation
- Concentrated formula requires strict adherence to dilution guidelines for safety
- Can cause bleaching or discoloration on non-colourfast surfaces if not properly diluted
Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Storage: Always store the 5-litre container upright in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated area, away from reach of children and out of direct sunlight.
- Handling: Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as chemical-resistant gloves when handling the concentrate to avoid skin irritation.
- Compatibility: Ensure the product is not mixed with other cleaning chemicals, especially acidic cleaners or ammonia-based products, as this can create dangerous gases.
- Dilution: When cleaning floors or large surface areas, dilute the bleach according to the specific level of soil; generally, a ratio of 1 part bleach to 50 parts water is standard for light disinfection.
- Disposal: Dispose of empty containers according to local environmental regulations; do not reuse the container for food storage or other chemical mixes.
