Multi Purpose Cleaner

You already read labels on everything. Food. The kids' snacks. Skincare.

But think about the last time you cleaned the bathroom. That sharp chemical smell that stuck in your throat. The window you had to open. The way your eyes watered a little if you sprayed too close.

You probably don't even smell it anymore.

Australian cleaning companies aren't required to disclose what's in their products. The word "fragrance" on a cleaning label can legally cover dozens of synthetic chemicals. And most supermarket cleaners leave a residue — on your benchtops, your floors, the surfaces your kids touch.

We list every ingredient. Always have. Since 1895.

All four Multi Purpose Cleaner scents are made with pure, readable ingredients — real soap or plant-derived surfactant as the base, methylated spirits, water, and 100% pure Australian essential oil. No synthetic fragrance. No hidden anything.

Choose your scent based on where and how you clean. Eucalyptus for whole-house everyday use. Lemon Myrtle for kitchen grease and rangehood grime. Peppermint where pests are a problem — bins, pantries, entry points. Lavender for bedrooms and living spaces.

"My kitchen sparkles and the bathroom benches and sink are brilliant. The smell is refreshing and lingers nicely. Even use it on toilet seats. Very impressed all round."
— Sue Duncan ★★★★★

This is a concentrated cleaner. A little goes a long way.

Hard surfaces — benchtops, sinks, tiles, toilets:
Use neat or dilute 1:4 with water in a spray bottle. Spray, wipe, done. No rinsing needed.

Floors — tiles, vinyl, timber-safe surfaces:
2 capfuls (10ml) in a full mop bucket. For spray mops, half a capful (2–3ml). Important — don't exceed 2 capfuls in a floor wash or it may streak. Because it's castile soap-based rather than detergent-based, it leaves no soapy film — floors stay cleaner between cleans.

Pre-wash stain treatment:
Apply neat directly to the stain. For tough stains, rub gently before washing. Works on grease, grass, collar grime, urine stains, tyre marks, lipstick, crayon, and sticky tape residue.

Outside windows:
2 capfuls (10ml) in a bucket of water, wipe with a microfibre cloth and squeegee for a streak-free finish.

Natural pest deterrent (Peppermint):
Wipe down bin areas, entry points, and cupboard bases with neat or lightly diluted solution. Peppermint oil is a well-documented natural deterrent for ants, flies, and spiders.

"Perfect for multi-cleaning, leaving a fresh fragrance throughout the home. I love this on my tiled floors, for cleaning the car and for just about everything else."
— Christie Roxburgh ★★★★★

Kitchens — benchtops, splashbacks, sinks, stovetops, rangehood exteriors, appliance surfaces.
Bathrooms — vanities, tiles, taps, toilets, shower screens, mirrors.
Floors — tiles, vinyl, sealed timber. Use 2 capfuls in a full mop bucket. Do not exceed 2 capfuls or it may streak.
Laundry — trough, washing machine exterior, laundry sink.
Outside windows — 2 capfuls in a bucket, microfibre cloth and squeegee.
Pre-wash stain treatment — apply neat, rub gently for tough stains, wash as normal.
Car exterior and interior surfaces.
Outdoor furniture — sealed surfaces only.
Bedrooms — safe on hard surfaces, skirting boards, and furniture. Lavender particularly.
Pest deterrent — wipe down bin rims, cupboard bases, entry points, window sills. Peppermint particularly.

Not recommended for: unsealed stone or marble (spot test first on sealed stone), unsealed timber, or surfaces that specify no soap-based cleaners.

Four ingredients. All of them readable.

Pure Castile Soap — made from olive oil and coconut oil. Real soap, not a synthetic detergent. Gentle enough to use on skin, powerful enough to cut through grease, and fully biodegradable. Used in Eucalyptus, Peppermint, and Lavender.

Berol 609 — a plant-derived, biodegradable surfactant certified under the EPA Safer Choice program and listed on NSF CleanGredients — the two most rigorous ingredient safety standards in the cleaning industry. Used in Lemon Myrtle.

Methylated Spirits — a food-grade solvent that cuts through oils, waxes, and sticky residues and helps the formula dry streak-free.

100% Pure Essential Oil — Australian-grown where available. Eucalyptus oil: naturally antibacterial and antifungal. Lemon Myrtle oil: the highest natural citral concentration of any plant on earth. Peppermint oil: a documented natural insect deterrent. Lavender oil: naturally calming and antibacterial.

Water.

No synthetic fragrance. No optical brighteners. No phosphates. No petrochemicals. No hidden anything.

Most cleaning products — including many that call themselves natural — list "anionic surfactant" on the label. That tells you nothing. We name every ingredient because we have nothing to hide.

How do I dilute it?
For spray bottles: 1 part cleaner to 4 parts water. For mopping: 2 capfuls (10ml) in a full mop bucket — don't exceed this or it may streak. For spray mops: half a capful (2–3ml). Use neat for stubborn stains and grease.

Why does it streak on my floors sometimes?
Too much product. Keep to 2 capfuls maximum in a full mop bucket. It rinses completely clean at the right dilution — no soapy film left behind.

Is it safe on granite and stone benchtops?
Safe on sealed stone. Spot test first on unsealed or polished stone — do not use undiluted on stone surfaces.

Does it disinfect?
The essential oils in each scent have natural antibacterial and antifungal properties. Not a registered TGA disinfectant, but effective against many common household bacteria and fungi.

Does the Peppermint really deter pests?
Yes — peppermint oil is a well-documented natural insect deterrent. Wipe down bin areas, entry points, and cupboard bases. Many customers specifically buy Peppermint for this purpose.

Is it safe for pets?
Once dry and aired, yes. Dilute generously if you have cats — they are more sensitive to essential oils than dogs.

Can I use it in my steam mop?
Yes. A few drops in the water reservoir cleans and freshens as you mop.

Can I use it as a stain remover?
Yes. Apply neat to the stain, rub gently for tough marks, leave a few minutes, then wash as normal. Works on grease, grass, collar stains, tyre marks, lipstick and more.

Is it grey water and septic safe?
Yes. All formulas are biodegradable and safe for septic tanks and grey water systems.

What if I don't love it?
Lifetime money-back guarantee. No return required. No questions asked.
