IKW Recommendations for the Quality Assessment of Bathroom Cleaners (2002)
Bathroom cleaners for households are liquid products for the cleaning of surfaces made of ceramic materials, porcelain, glass, enamel, plastics or metal. To remove bathroom-specific soils - e.g. limescale, lime soap or grease - bathroom cleaners can contain acids, complexing agents, surfactants and solvents, possibly also perfumes and antimicrobial additives.
