The Persistent Odours in Commercial Kitchens


Kitchen smells usually come from tiny particles, called volatile organic compounds (VOCs), released during cooking, along with grease and food particles that stick to surfaces and start to break down. Since these unsightly odours can hang around, eliminating the source can help improve air quality.


Heat, humidity, and grease buildup make it tough to control odours in kitchens, especially through ventilation systems, on countertops, and around appliances. Kitchen floors also trap smells from spills and messes, requiring an odour-neutralizing cleaner.


How Does Econo-Clean Neutralize Odours?


Econo-Clean uses sodium-based lifting agents to attack organic compounds like grease and food particles — places where bacteria tend to grow. Breaking down the molecules stops the bacteria from forming, getting rid of odours at the source.


Econo-Clean’s key features include:


  • Safe for food prep areas: Free of harmful chemicals, so it’s safe to use around food without risking contamination.
  • Non-toxic: Its gentle, eco-friendly formula is non-hazardous for people and pets.
  • Biodegradable: Econo-Clean breaks down naturally, making it a sustainable choice.
  • Non-corrosive: Gentle on surfaces so that it won’t damage kitchen equipment or appliances, even with frequent use.
  • Pleasant scent: It neutralizes odours instead of covering them with fake fragrances, leaving a fresh, clean smell.
  • Fast-acting: Quickly improves air quality and cleanliness while removing odours.
  • Versatile: Works on multiple surfaces — countertops, floors, and appliances — providing complete odour control.
  • Residue-free: Leaves no sticky or greasy residue, keeping your kitchen clean and sanitary.


Benefits of Econo-Clean During Peak Hours and Special Events


During peak times like rush hours or food festivals, spills will more likely happen, building up food particles, grease, and bad smells. Econo-Clean is a reliable solution when demand is high. Tackling odours immediately improves the experience for customers and staff, making it a must-have for busy environments where sterility and freshness matter most.

Econo-Clean’s powerful formula removes tough stains and doesn’t leave behind residue, allowing for fast and efficient cleaning. You can expect less downtime in busy kitchens, uninterrupted service, safe customers, and controlled odours while meeting health regulations.


It helps prevent cross-contamination by destroying raw food residues, keeping them away from cooked food and prep surfaces. It's effective on
many kitchen surfaces and equipment, making it a safe, reliable choice for your food, staff, and customers.
