One standard. Every site. Less to move and store.
The operational problem
Bulk chemicals multiply cost and complexity across a portfolio.
Every site needs its own chemical store, its own deliveries and its own training on dilution. Multiply that across dozens of buildings and the old way of supplying cleaning products becomes a quiet, permanent overhead.

Comparison Stats
How does Leaf compare?
A site getting through 1,000 washroom cleans a year handles 805kg of product and 55kg of plastic packaging. The same 1,000 cleans as Leaf sheets weigh 1.1kg and arrive in 12 litres of shelf space.

Per 1,000 washroom cleans. Basis: Jantex Washroom Cleaner RTU 750ml, £1.39 ex VAT, Nisbets, September 2026. One Leaf sheet makes one 750ml trigger bottle. Bottle weight 55g empty, 805g filled. Pack dimensions and weights from Leaf trade specifications. All prices ex VAT. Storage volumes are shelf footprint, not liquid capacity. Against 5L concentrate dosed at 40:1, Leaf costs more per dose — the saving there is weight, storage, packaging and dosing accuracy.
Frequently asked questions
Can Leaf products replace bulk cleaning chemicals in FM contracts?+
For most daily cleaning tasks, yes. Leaf makes pre-measured sheets for laundry, surfaces, floors, washrooms and dishwashing that replace their bulk liquid equivalents while cutting storage, transport and handling.
How does Leaf reduce cost across multiple sites?+
Costs fall in three places: transport (you stop shipping water), storage (compact packs need shelf space, not floor space) and waste (pre-measured dosing ends over-pouring). At portfolio scale, small per-site savings compound.
Does switching to sheets require retraining cleaning teams?+
Very little. Each sheet is a complete dose — there's no measuring, diluting or decanting to teach. Most teams are working confidently with the format on day one.
