Three specialised formulations rather than one multipurpose chemical. STASH for Hotels is a heavy-duty commercial detergent for tough stains, fabric whiteness and towel softness across high-volume cycles.

STASH for Health Care is a medical-grade sanitizing solution targeting hospital-acquired pathogens, bloodstains and bio-contaminants at controlled wash temperatures. STASH for Delicate Garment Care is pH-neutral and ultra-gentle for silk and woollens, cleaning without shrinkage, colour fading or distortion.

Because the three jobs are genuinely different. A hospital needs pathogen elimination at a controlled temperature; a hotel needs whiteness and towel softness at volume; silk needs pH neutrality and no mechanical stress.

A multipurpose chemical does all three adequately and none of them well. STAS's position is that each segment gets its own formulation.

An energy efficient platform working on low dosing and low temperatures. Those are the two largest running costs in a laundry — the chemical you dose and the water you heat — and both repeat every cycle.

The saving compounds in a way a negotiated price per litre does not. A lower cost per wash, every wash, is a different order of benefit.

That is the difficult part, and it is what the healthcare formulation is built for — eliminating hospital-acquired pathogens, bloodstains and bio-contaminants at controlled wash temperatures.

If you have a specific protocol to meet, raise it at enquiry and ask for the wash programme recommendations that go with the products. Do not reduce temperature on your own initiative without confirming it.

Five stages: water quality → linen analysis → soil identification → machine assessment → wash programme.

It is worth taking seriously, because most problems that present as a detergent problem turn out to be water hardness, dosing, or a programme set once years ago and never revisited. Changing the chemical alone would not have fixed any of those.

STAS states the system comprises certified green and non-hazardous formulations.

Which scheme is not named in the material, so ask them to confirm it and which products it covers — that is what an audit or an ESG report will want. For a laundry, also ask about the effluent profile if your site discharges to a treatment plant with limits.

Use the Enquire now button. Ask for the laundry assessment rather than a price list — the evaluation is the part that identifies where your cost actually sits.

Bring your linen types, machine setup, water hardness and typical soil level. Those determine the specification more than volume does.

Five products. STASMAC FOAM 1.5L is the manual foam generator; CUERO CLAIR is the cleaning agent; CUERO CARE conditions and protects; CUERO SHINE polishes leather; and CUERO FLORENCE is an anti-microbial de-odorizer.

They are designed as a system rather than a shelf — clean, condition, finish, and deal with odour where it occurs.

Cotton, jute, polyester, rexine, PU, leatherette, leather and suede — fabric through to leather in one system.

That is the point of it. A hotel lounge typically has three or four different upholstery materials in the same room, and a product per material is how sites end up not cleaning any of them.

Because everything you put into an upholstered piece has to come back out of it. A wet process soaks the padding and the piece dries slowly from the outside in, leaving watermark rings, a musty smell and sometimes a shrunken cover.

Foam carries the agent to the fibre with a fraction of the liquid. STAS also specifies no rinse required and no residue left behind, which removes the step where most of the moisture problems begin.

STAS specifies quick drying time and less scrubbing required, which is the operational reason to use a foam system.

In a hotel that is the difference between a room out of service for a night and out for an afternoon. Ask for indicative drying times against your own materials at enquiry.

That is how it is designed. Application is described as easy and user friendly, with less manpower involved and a manual foam gun that needs no compressor or power supply.

Ask about the STASMAC FOAM 1.5L at enquiry — foam quality is what determines the result, and the generator is what produces it.

That is what CUERO FLORENCE is for. STAS identifies the cause as bacterial or fungal growth, or human perspiration, which is why an anti-microbial de-odorizer solves it where a wash does not.

Relevant for hotel guest laundry, dry cleaning operations and any facility handling returned uniforms or footwear.

Use the Enquire now button. List the materials involved — fabric, PU, leather, suede — and say whether the work will be done in-house or by a contractor.

Request datasheets and dilution guidance at the same time, and always test on an inconspicuous area before treating a whole piece. Five minutes against the cost of marking a sofa.

A complete turnkey program covering three things: fragrances, deodorizing and dispensing systems.

The sequence is the point. It removes unwanted mal odour first, applies a fragrance customised to your brand image second, and then commits to coverage till every corner.

A deodorizer neutralises what is producing the smell. A fragrance adds a scent. They are separate products — STASROM DEO against STASROM FRESH and STASROM AMBI.

Using fragrance alone is why a washroom can smell of two things at once by mid-afternoon: the original odour returns and the perfume is still there.

Yes. Alongside the premium range, STAS offers custom designed fragrances, with full control from choosing or developing the scent through to programmable dispensing.

For a hotel or showroom group that is the difference between a scent that is yours and one a visitor recognises from somewhere else.

Deodorizers are specified separately for smoking rooms, urinals and washrooms, seepage and waste rooms.

Those are four distinct problems. Seepage in particular is usually structural, so describe what you are actually dealing with rather than ordering a general product.

Two ways: through STASMAC AMBI dispensing machines for individual spaces, or through the building's HVAC for one consistent signature across a whole floor.

The STASMAC units come in four sizes — 2.7, 5.4, 7.2 and 15.3. The unit behind those numbers is not published, so give the team your room dimensions and let them specify rather than choosing by the figure.

No. The programme is offered on purchase or rental, described by STAS as cost sensitive — so it can sit in a capital budget or an operating one.

Rental is worth considering if you want to trial a fragrance across a site before committing, or if dispensing hardware is not something you want to own and maintain.

Use the Enquire now button. Describe the spaces, their approximate sizes, and where the odour problems actually are.

Ask for refill sizes and consumption rates too. With a programmed system, running cost is a predictable figure rather than an estimate — worth having before you commit.

Four named families: STASROM for surface cleaners, maintainers and polishes; STASDISH for kitchen care and food safety; EQUIP for mops, tools and equipment; and BLACK for floor care machines.

Alongside those, speciality cleaners for facility care, plus training and audits — 360° facility care from one supplier rather than four.

Because the parts have to work with each other. A detergent that foams in a scrubber, or a pad wrong for the floor finish, gives a poor result nobody can attribute — chemical, machine or operator?

STAS describes the approach as specific need, specific solution: systems built for the usage and requirement rather than assembled from three quotations.

STAS states that a major part of the portfolio is non-hazardous, green, vegan and sustainable, delivering industrial-grade performance in an eco-friendly way.

Note the scope — a major part, not all of it. If every product on your site has to meet a specific standard, ask which items qualify and against which certification. That is what an ESG audit asks for, not a corporate position.

Lower consumption patterns, less dosing and high retention. The saving comes from using less per clean rather than paying less per litre.

That is the comparison worth making with any supplier: cost per litre of working solution and per square metre cleaned, not cost per can. Ask for dosing rates so you can run the sums.

Yes — effective tailor-made solutions are part of the offer, which is possible because STAS manufactures rather than relabels. Two plants run around 20 metric tonnes a day.

Worth raising if you have an unusual surface, a water hardness problem or a compliance requirement a standard product does not cover.

Public areas, rooms, washrooms, lobby, restaurants, kitchens, banquets and back areas — the full run of a hospitality or commercial building.

Kitchen and food safety sit under STASDISH as a separate family, because food-contact chemistry has requirements general surface cleaning does not.

Use the Enquire now button. Describe your spaces, surfaces and which machines you already run — those three answers determine the specification.

Ask about the training and audit elements at the same time. Most cleaning failures turn out to be dilution, dwell time or the wrong cloth rather than the product, and that is exactly what those cover.
