General Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Superclean have any substances harmful to aquatic life?

Although Superclean is biodegradable and not harmful to people or animals if it is directly sprayed into e.g. fish tanks or ponds where there are fish residing, it may be harmful to the aquatic life. It can however be used to clean aquariums and ponds whilst empty, providing they are rinsed thoroughly with clean water, prior to the re-introduction of the fish. When used for cleaning sinks, toilets etc. that involves rinsing with water that goes down the drains. Here it will be diluted greatly with the rinsing water and water in the drainage systems, so will not be harmful to any aquatic life when it eventually reaches it.

How do Dew SuperHygine, Cleansing Water and Air Deodoriser work?

Dew SuperHygine, Cleansing Water and Air Deodoriser is proven to be 99.995% effective at destroying bacteria, viruses, fungi and spores. When these products come into contact with bacteria, they cause an imbalance on the cell surface, breaking down the bacteria's defences, allowing the active ingredient - Hypochlorous Acid- to render it harmless. DEW performs at least 30 times faster than the best household bleach, plus it is also very effective at killing viruses, all without the use of harsh chemicals.

How do Dew Superclean and Foam work?

Both products are powered by electrolysed water; safer to use, kinder to your skin and kinder to the environment, Dew Superclean and Dew Foam are 100% Biodegradable, free from harsh chemicals, hypoallergenic, non-irritant and non-staining. During electrolysis the liquid produces Sodium Hydroxide. A little Sodium Hydroxide creates an effective and gentle, cleaning ingredient.

Are there any toxic chemicals in Dew products?

No. Dew complies with the requirements of the European Biocide Regulation EU528/2012 Product Types 1-5, which means it is deemed approved for use with Humans and Animals and it has been tested to BS EN 901 as a disinfectant for drinking water, fit for human consumption.

How effective are Dew products?

Do Dew products leave behind any film or residue?

Refill & Ingredients

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Dew have a slight smell of bleach?

One of the constituents of Dew Disinfect, Sanitiser and Air is Hypochlorous acid, which, when it reacts with oxygen in the air gives off a tiny amount of gas, which is what you can smell.

What is FAC?

FAC stands for ‘Free Available Chlorine’ and in the case of Dew Disinfect, Sanitiser and Air, FAC comprises two components, Hypochlorous Acid (about 245ppm) and Sodium Hypochlorite (about 15ppm)

What is Hypochlorous Acid?

Hypochlorous Acid is the substance our bodies produce to fight infection, so its germ killing properties are well known and understood and since our own bodies produce it naturally. It's the active ingredient in Dew Disinfect, Sanitiser and Air and is proven to be 99.995% effective at destroying bacteria, viruses, fungi and spores.

How is Dew made?

Dew products are made by passing an electric current through a solution of de-ionised water and high purity salt (Sodium Chloride) contained in a chamber fitted with a specially designed membrane. No chemicals are added in the process. All products are natural and 100% biodegradable.

Usage & Storage

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best place to store Dew?

Dew is best kept in a cool dark place (i.e. cupboard) and in its original container.

How long can I keep Dew before it stops working?

If kept as recommended, DEW will remain active for at least 6 months after opening, maybe even longer. Shelf life is up to 2 years, if unopened and stored in a cool dark storage area. Frequent removal of the cap and left off for longer than necessary periods will reduce this. Avoid unnecessary opening of the (spray) bottles, open only when empty, no need to rinse and refill using our refill Readymix or concentrate.

Bottle & Trigger Care

Our bottles are durable and will last much longer than single-use plastic bottles, saving you from throwing plastic into landfill.

Reusing is better for the environment; however, the bottles may outlast the trigger sprays, which both have a limited lifespan, but you can purchase replacement heads or empty bottles on our accessories page. If you use Dew for anything other than domestic use, we do advise upgrading your trigger heads to the commercial trigger sprays.

Air Atomiser Tips

When refilling, for best results, put the bottle on a hard surface for stability, line the arrow on the Air head with the vertical line on the bottle neck, push down, then twist to the left to lock the mechanism. Your Air is now ready to reuse.

Try not to let the liquid run out as this can create an air lock, resulting in the trigger not working. If this happens, please refill the bottle and pump continuously for a few minutes (this can take up to 5 minutes). If the spray still doesn’t work, please wait 24 hours, and retry.

Our packaging impact

We thought long and hard about our packaging, our 5L refills are made from 100% recycled / reclaimed rigid plastic.

This is our logic: Has a lower carbon footprint than glass and metal packaging Can be recycled and where possible we use reclaimed plastics.

We never use flexible plastic, it is rarely recycled and poses the most risk to marine life We never use containers which hide flexible plastic liners inside such as aluminium bottles, tin cans & card board boxes
