Bleach is a highly effective chemical agent primarily utilised for cleaning, disinfecting, and whitening various materials and surfaces. As a powerful disinfectant, it can eliminate a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses, making it an essential tool in maintaining hygiene in both domestic and commercial settings.

In addition to its disinfecting properties, bleach is renowned for its ability to remove stubborn stains and restore the brightness of white fabrics in laundry. When added to wash cycles, it helps to break down and lift stains caused by food, drinks, or bodily fluids.

Furthermore, bleach is invaluable for cleaning surfaces that may harbour mould and mildew, effectively killing these spores and preventing their regrowth. It can be applied to a variety of surfaces, including countertops, sinks, and bathroom tiles, ensuring a sanitised environment. However, it’s essential to use bleach with caution, following proper dilution guidelines and safety precautions to ensure effective use while minimizing potential hazards.
