Craftex Urine Neutraliser 5L

Craftex Urine Neutraliser 5L | Professional Urine Odour & Stain Treatment

Craftex Urine Neutraliser 5L is a professional specialist treatment developed to neutralise urine contamination and the persistent unpleasant odours associated with human and animal accidents. Designed primarily for carpets, upholstery and other compatible water-washable surfaces, it works directly on the source of the problem rather than simply covering unwanted smells with a strong fragrance.

Urine contamination can be particularly difficult to treat because the visible stain is often only part of the problem. Liquid can penetrate deep into carpet fibres, upholstery and underlying materials, where urine salts and other residues remain after the surface appears dry. These deposits can continue producing unpleasant odours, particularly when affected by humidity or moisture.

Craftex Urine Neutraliser helps break down these residues so that they can be wiped or extracted away.

Suitable for professional carpet cleaners, contract cleaners, care environments, pet owners and general domestic use, this concentrated treatment provides a practical solution for both human and pet urine contamination. It can also be used when treating compatible surfaces affected by vomit and similar organic spillages.

## Neutralises Urine Rather Than Masking the Smell

One of the most important differences between Craftex Urine Neutraliser and a conventional air freshener is the way the product addresses odours.

Strong fragrances can temporarily disguise the smell of urine, but once the fragrance disappears, the original odour frequently returns.

Craftex Urine Neutraliser is designed to work directly on urine residues.

Its formulation helps break down crystallised body fluids and urine salts, allowing the contamination to be removed from the treated material.

This source-focused approach makes it particularly useful for areas where repeated deodorising has failed to solve the underlying problem.

## Suitable for Human and Pet Urine

Craftex Urine Neutraliser can be used to treat contamination caused by both humans and animals.

This makes the product suitable for a wide variety of domestic and professional environments.

Pet urine can become a recurring problem on carpets, rugs and suitable upholstered furniture, particularly where an animal repeatedly returns to the same area.

Human urine contamination may occur in care homes, healthcare-related environments, hotels, childcare facilities and private homes.

The same basic principle applies in each situation: remove as much physical contamination as possible and then ensure the neutralising solution reaches the complete affected area.

## Treats Vomit and Other Organic Contamination

Although primarily developed as a urine treatment, Craftex Urine Neutraliser can also be used when dealing with compatible surfaces affected by vomit and similar organic spillages.

These incidents can leave both visible staining and persistent odours.

Always remove solid material and absorb excess liquid before applying the neutraliser.

The product should then be used as part of a complete cleaning process rather than as a substitute for physically removing the contamination.

Where appropriate, professional water extraction cleaning can follow treatment to recover suspended residues from carpets and upholstery.

## Ideal for Carpets and Upholstery

Carpet and upholstery fibres can trap contamination below the visible surface.

A urine accident on a carpet, for example, may travel through the pile towards the backing. Simply wiping the top of the carpet may therefore leave substantial contamination behind.

Craftex Urine Neutraliser is suitable for water-washable carpets and upholstery and can be applied directly to the affected section.

The key is achieving sufficient contact with the contamination.

Treat the complete affected area rather than spraying only the most obvious visible mark.

The product is particularly useful for professional carpet and sofa cleaning companies because it can be incorporated into a more comprehensive extraction-cleaning procedure.

## Highly Concentrated Professional Formula

Craftex Urine Neutraliser is supplied as a concentrated treatment.

For general professional spot treatment, manufacturer guidance allows the product to be diluted **1:1 with water – one part Craftex Urine Neutraliser to one part water**.

For severe contamination and heavily soiled areas, the product can be used neat where appropriate.

Because the product is concentrated, the 5-litre container provides an economical solution for cleaning companies and facilities that regularly encounter urine-related contamination.

Always assess the severity of the problem and the compatibility of the material before deciding how strong the treatment needs to be.

## How to Use Craftex Urine Neutraliser

Correct application is essential. The neutraliser needs to reach the actual contamination to work effectively.

### Step 1 – Remove Solid Contamination

If treating vomit, faecal contamination or another organic accident, carefully remove solid material first.

Use appropriate disposable materials and personal protective equipment for the contamination involved.

Do not rub solid contamination deeper into carpet or upholstery fibres.

### Step 2 – Absorb Excess Liquid

Fresh urine should be absorbed before applying the neutraliser.

Use clean absorbent material to blot the affected section.

Avoid aggressive rubbing, which can spread contamination across a larger area and deeper into the fibres.

### Step 3 – Check the Surface

Confirm that the carpet, fabric or upholstery is suitable for wet cleaning.

When dealing with an unfamiliar fibre, delicate material or unstable colour, test the solution in a small inconspicuous area first.

### Step 4 – Prepare the Solution

For general treatment, dilute Craftex Urine Neutraliser **1:1 with clean water**.

For example:

**500ml Craftex Urine Neutraliser + 500ml water = 1 litre of working solution.**

For heavy contamination, the product can be used neat where appropriate.

Always follow the product label for the particular application.

### Step 5 – Apply to the Complete Affected Area

Apply the solution using a suitable trigger sprayer or professional pressure sprayer.

Spray sufficiently to make contact with the contamination but avoid unnecessarily flooding the material.

Remember that urine can spread beneath the visible surface, so treat the surrounding affected area where necessary.

### Step 6 – Allow the Product to Work

Give the neutraliser sufficient contact time to interact with the urine residues.

Do not immediately remove the product before it has had an opportunity to work.

Avoid allowing people or pets to use the treated area during the treatment process.

### Step 7 – Blot or Extract

For smaller spots, the treated contamination can be padded or blotted using a clean white absorbent cloth.

For larger carpet and upholstery cleaning projects, the treatment can be followed with professional water extraction cleaning using a compatible carpet or upholstery cleaning system.

### Step 8 – Allow to Dry

Provide good ventilation and allow the treated material to dry properly.

Assess the result only after drying, as damp carpet and upholstery can smell different from completely dry fibres.

Very severe or old contamination may require further treatment.

## Using Craftex Urine Neutraliser with Extraction Cleaning

Professional carpet and upholstery cleaners can incorporate Craftex Urine Neutraliser into a complete restoration process.

First identify the contaminated area and remove excess residues.

Apply the neutraliser directly to the affected section so that it reaches the source of the urine contamination.

After suitable contact time, follow with water extraction cleaning using an appropriate carpet or upholstery cleaning solution.

Extraction helps recover loosened and suspended contamination from within the fibres.

This method is particularly useful when dealing with large contaminated sections, repeated pet accidents, mattresses or upholstered furniture where urine has penetrated below the immediate surface.

## Treating Old Urine Odours

Old urine contamination can be considerably more difficult than a fresh accident.

The original liquid may have dried completely, leaving concentrated urine salts within the fibres, backing or underlying material.

In these circumstances, identifying the full contaminated area is important.

Apply Craftex Urine Neutraliser sufficiently to contact the original contamination and allow it time to work before extraction or blotting.

Very heavily contaminated carpet where urine has penetrated into the underlay or subfloor may require repeated professional treatment. In extreme situations, treating only the carpet surface may not completely resolve contamination located underneath it.

## Important Safety Instructions

Craftex Urine Neutraliser is a professional cleaning chemical and should always be handled responsibly.

**Read the product label and Safety Data Sheet before use.**

Avoid unnecessary contact with the skin and eyes. Wear suitable protective gloves when handling the concentrated product or treating contaminated areas.

Eye protection is recommended where spraying or handling creates a realistic risk of splashing.

If the product enters the eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of clean water and follow the first-aid instructions provided with the product.

Wash contaminated skin thoroughly with water.

Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling the product, and wash your hands after use.

Keep children and pets away from the chemical and from treated areas until cleaning is complete and the surface has dried appropriately.

Never mix Craftex Urine Neutraliser with bleach, disinfectants, acidic or alkaline cleaners, odour neutralisers or other unrelated chemicals. Mixing cleaning chemicals can produce unwanted reactions and may also reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.

Use only in accordance with the supplied instructions.

Avoid unnecessary release of concentrated product into the environment or drains. Contain and clean up spillages appropriately.

Store the container securely closed, upright and in its original labelled packaging, away from children, pets and unsuitable environmental conditions.

## Important Surface Precautions

Always confirm that the material is water washable before treatment.

Test delicate carpets, rugs and upholstery for colourfastness in an inconspicuous area.

Avoid unnecessary oversaturation, particularly on upholstery, mattresses and carpet installations where excessive liquid may penetrate deeply into foam, backing or flooring underneath.

Do not assume that every leather, natural fibre or specialist fabric is suitable. Where material compatibility is uncertain, obtain specialist advice before treatment.

Craftex Urine Neutraliser should not be confused with a general carpet cleaner or perfume. Its primary purpose is the treatment and neutralisation of urine and related organic contamination.

## Professional Urine Odour Control for Carpets and Upholstery

Craftex Urine Neutraliser 5L provides professional cleaners and domestic users with a concentrated solution for one of the most difficult odour problems encountered in carpets and upholstery.

Rather than simply covering urine smells with fragrance, it targets the urine salts and crystallised residues responsible for persistent contamination, helping suspend them so they can be blotted or extracted away.

Suitable for human and pet urine as well as vomit and related organic contamination, it can be used on compatible water-washable carpets and upholstery.

For general treatment, dilute **1:1 with water**, or use neat where appropriate for severe contamination. Remove excess spillage first, apply the solution to the complete affected area, allow sufficient contact time and then blot or follow with professional water extraction cleaning.

Used correctly, Craftex Urine Neutraliser provides an effective, economical and professional approach to eliminating persistent urine contamination at its source rather than temporarily hiding the problem.
