Automatic dishwasher detergents are specially formulated cleaning agents designed for use in dishwashers. They come in various forms, including powders, gels, and tablets, and are engineered to break down food residues, grease, and stains on dishes, utensils, and cookware. These detergents often contain enzymes and surfactants that enhance cleaning efficiency and help prevent the buildup of limescale and other deposits. Most automatic dishwasher detergents are designed to work effectively in different water conditions, whether hard or soft. They are typically used in conjunction with rinse aids to improve drying and prevent water spots on glassware. Proper use of these detergents ensures optimal cleaning results and extends the lifespan of dishwasher appliances.
