How to Read a Safety Data Sheet (SDS)
Every commercial cleaning chemical in Australia must be accompanied by a Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Key sections to review: Section 2 (Hazard Identification — GHS classifications and pictograms), Section 7 (Handling and Storage — temperature requirements, incompatible materials), Section 8 (Exposure Controls — recommended PPE), and Section 11 (Toxicological Information — health effects). All products in our cleaning chemicals range come with full SDS documentation available on request.
Dilution Ratios: Getting the Most from Concentrates
Most professional cleaning chemicals are concentrates designed to be diluted before use. Using the correct ratio is critical for both safety and value. Common ratios: heavy-duty degreasers (1:10–1:50 depending on soil load), general purpose cleaners (1:20–1:100), hospital-grade disinfectants (specific per TGA registration), and glass cleaners (1:20–1:50). Always use a calibrated dispenser for consistent dilution — especially when training new cleaning staff.
TGA-Registered Disinfectants
In Australia, disinfectants claiming to kill specific pathogens must be registered with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). This ensures independent testing and verified efficacy. When purchasing disinfectants for healthcare, aged care, food service, or childcare environments, always check for a current TGA registration number on the label. Browse our cleaning chemicals range to find TGA-compliant disinfectants for regulated environments.
Eco-Friendly Cleaning Chemical Options
The cleaning industry is increasingly adopting biodegradable, low-VOC, and plant-derived formulations. Key certifications to look for include Good Environmental Choice Australia (GECA), EU Ecolabel, and biodegradable certification. Matthews Cleaning Company stocks environmentally responsible options including the Enviroplus range, which minimises environmental impact without compromising performance. These are popular with green building operators, sustainable hospitality venues, and organisations with environmental sustainability policies.
Safe Storage and Segregation of Cleaning Chemicals
Improper storage creates serious safety risks. Commercial environments must: store chemicals in locked, ventilated cabinets away from food and medications; segregate by chemical class (acids, alkalis, oxidisers, and flammables must not be stored together); keep products in original labelled containers; store away from heat sources and direct sunlight; and maintain accessible SDS documents for all on-site chemicals.

Investing in the Right Tools Pays for Itself
Professional cleaning operations that invest in quality products and systems consistently outperform those that focus purely on minimising upfront costs. A microfibre system that costs more upfront but reduces chemical usage by 60% delivers better total cost of ownership. A commercial vacuum that lasts 8 years instead of 2 due to quality construction costs less per hour of use. Concentrated chemicals in dispenser systems eliminate measurement errors and overuse, reducing cost per clean-ready litre by up to 80% compared to RTU products.
