Introduction About Geco Clean Living

Timeline

1995                           

How we started:

 The company:

Caprichem (Pty) Ltd. was established in 1995 and has for 28 years been a well known name in the chemical industry. We have capitalized on various marketing sectors in the industry and have become a very diversified chemical company. We have a large variety of divisions catering to most sectors in the industry. Caprichem offers an array of products in the chemical industry catering for most sectors in the market, namely: Food and Beverage Industry, Wine and Dairy Industry, Hospitality Industry, Laundry Industry, Marine Industry, Personal Care Industry, Retail Industry, Veterinary Industry, Automotive Industry, Engineering Industry, Floor Care Industry and Construction Industry. The company is home to 15 brands. In addition, we supply accessories such as cleaning equipment, household equipment, washroom dispensers and paper products, automotive cleaning equipment, safety equipment, hardware products, plastic products, glassware products and so much more. 

2000                           

Prozyme Drain Maintenance Cleaner:

Caprichem first launched their first biological product in 2000 about 23 years ago. The product was called Prozyme Drain Maintenance Cleaner. At the time there was no intention to create any other products since the requirement came from our inhouse sales team for the cleaning of drains at restaurants. As time progressed it was clear that there was a need for a biological range at affordable prices since our active clients was being overcharge for theist type of products. Caprichem then made contact with the biggest producers of enzymes in the work called Novozyme in Denmark. This led us to a South African distributer, with the help of
Novozyme's development department helping us to develop a complete range of products called Geco Clean Living.

2002                         

The start of the Geco Clean Living brand:

The Geco Clean Living brand came to life and multiple lines were launched. Studying and understanding the concept of bioscience opened our eyes to how important this chemistry is to our environment. Since then, we have launched a bathroom cleaner, floor and tile cleaner, septic system cleaner, odour digester and a grey water cleaner.

2010                        

The Geco Clean Living brand:

The Geco Clean Living brand was expanded with Geco P.Dome’s, Geco Uripods and Geco Bio Cubes. This range went hand in hand with the Geco Bathroom Cleaner for male bathroom at restaurants. 

2018

Our Main Focus:

At this point Caprichem had a full range of biological chemicals and we still found that there was a need to expand the Brand even further. We then got into contact with world leaders in green chemistry which led us to expand the Geco Prozyme product range with safe to use disinfectants and all-purpose cleaner to be used in all environments. After a year’s development we launched Geco Supersan, Geco Superklenz and Geco window cleaner.

Our main focus on the new lines was that the consumer and our clients could all use one product. It wasn’t designed for the industrial or domestic market. It was one product with international standards that could be used in all industries like engineering, marine, hospitality, old age homes, schools, automotive and basically any industry that had the need and cared for green cleaning.

2022

The Growth and extension of the Geco Clean Living range:

Due to being very innovative we knew that Geco Clean Living was not only all about floors, tiles, urinals and septic systems, but everything that a business or the consumer at home could possibly need to help keep the environment clean and of course make it easy and convenient to obtain environmentally friendly products to combat the everyday harsh detergent found in our retail sectors. Therefore, we launched various other products in our other brands consisting of biological chemistry. BREEDZ Litter Box Deodorizer as well as the BREEDZ Stain and Odour Digester. In 2022, we also launched Dux Liquid Landry Detergent and Dux Super Digest laundry powder.

All our disinfectants are tested and approved by NRCS against the Compulsory Specification for Disinfectants and Detergent-disinfectants (VC8054) and bares a registration number. It also conforms to the European standards (EN1276) and is tested to a Log 5, which means it kills 99.999% of all germs. Log reduction is a mathematical term used when testing product efficacy to indicate the number of microbes eliminated by use of the disinfectant. Prior to the new Compulsory Specification, disinfectants were required to kill 99.9% (log3 reduction) of tested bacteria. The new specification calls for a log5 reduction level i.e. 99.999% of the microorganisms must be eliminated within a specified time. – Usually 5 minutes
