Three new products in laundry line
COLD SPRING, KY — Fabritec International has announced the addition of three new laundry products to its Stamford line:
Laundry Detergent Powder is an enzyme laundry detergent that provides superior cleaning and redeposition control for both white and colored shirts. It has a fresh, clean scent and contains a natural degreaser that aids in the removal of food, grease and body oils. It is economical and easy to use.
All Temperature Liquid Detergent is formulated for casual and household washables, and produces excellent cleaning, redeposition control and fugitive dye control in all water temperatures.
It can be used on all washable fabrics, including khakis and jeans, and in all types of washing machines, including top loaders.
Fabric Finish is a fabric conditioner that gives khakis, golf and polo shirts a “like new” feel. This product is easily dispersed in the wash wheel, simplifies finishing and helps reduce the use of spray sizing, thereby reducing labor and supply costs.
Fabric Finish will not clog or affect press pad covers or press heads and can be used on all casual wear and household washables.
Fabritec manufactures drycleaning, wetcleaning, laundry, spotting, and restoration products under the Sanitone, Fabritec, and Stamford names. Stamford products are sold through distributors.

Laundry stain removal kits
MINNEAPOLIS, MN — Sunburst Chemicals has three new Laundry Reclaim Kits formulated to target specific staining issues.
Break-Out is an all purpose alkaline reclaim additive for effective removal of greasy soils and food stains; Enz-Out is an organic stain reclaim additive for effective oil and grease removal; and Rust-Out is an iron and rust removing reclaim additive to strip iron from linens. The easy-to-use powders come in one-pound packs, each designed for one 50-lb. load.
Break-Out is a heavy-duty caustic formulated to break greasy soils and food stains free from fabrics by suspending large quantities of soil to prevent re-deposition, even on dingy linens.  This economical detergent builder is effective in all water conditions.
Enz-Out is an effective organic option for oil and grease removal, with enzyme fortification for powerful food stain removal. The mild alkaline formula delivers superior wetting and emulsification, and reduces tensile strength loss to increase fabric life.
Rust-Out strips iron from linens that otherwise causes yellowing, and even removes blood stains. Its unique chemistry increases rewash effectiveness to help with removal of stubborn “set” stains.
