What are the ingredients in Universal Cleaner?Updated 7 days ago

Koh Universal Cleaner has only two ingredients: potassium hydroxide and laboratory grade purified water. Potassium hydroxide is an alkali degreaser that saponifies fats and oils, lifting grease and baked-on grime off the surface. Laboratory grade purified water is the solvent that carries it, and it is what gives the streak-free finish on glass and polished surfaces. There is no added fragrance, no dyes, no preservatives, no phosphates, no chlorine and no palm derivatives. That two-ingredient simplicity is what lets Universal Cleaner clear GECA certification, Allergy UK certification, Sensitive Choice approval from the National Asthma Council of Australia, and recognition from the Eczema Association of Australasia.

Koh Universal Cleaner is alkaline. The alkaline formulation is what cuts through cooking grease and organic matter, making it easier to clean, and it does that without solvents, acids or scrubbing. It also sets the limits, because soft metals, raw aluminium, aftermarket window tints and coated glass react to alkaline cleaners generally. Shelf life is 18 months from the date of manufacture, sealed and stored properly. Store it cool, sealed and shaded, out of direct sunlight. Do not freeze it and keep it away from extreme heat. A box covers about 3 months of cleaning in an average home, and the larger box about 6 months.

Koh Universal Cleaner carries four independent third-party credentials. GECA certified. Allergy UK certified. Sensitive Choice approved by the National Asthma Council of Australia. Recognised by the Eczema Association of Australasia. It also won Canstar Blue Most Satisfied Customers for multipurpose cleaners in 2022 and 2023. Vegan, not tested on animals, and made in Australia. The simplicity of the two-ingredient formula is what lets it meet those independent thresholds.

The Koh Universal Cleaner Safety Data Sheet covers composition, physical properties, handling, storage, disposal and emergency response, in the format required for regulatory and workplace safety compliance. Most home users never need to open it, but it is available anytime as a PDF download. It is the document to hand a strata manager, a cleaning contractor, a workplace safety officer or a school that asks for one before approving a product for site use.
