About AWL

AWL is a family owned and operated company formed in 2002 to offer Auckland property owners an alternative to the traditional chemical wash. With the growing concerns about environmental issues and the risk of potential property damage from powerful bleach based products, it became clear to us that many home owners would prefer to remove those risks.

After extensive research with professional tradesmen we’ve discovered chemical washes can have a significant negative impact on your home:

• Chemical/bleach washes can take a microscopic layer of paint off your house and this effectively thins the protective layer which paint provides. Long term use of chemical/bleach based products negates the advantages of washing in the first place.

• Painters regularly complain that chemical washing leaves a powdery residue on paintwork. This is because bleach/salt based products continue to work for up to 24 hours after their application. Before paint can be applied, the surface needs to be washed again, and this can be costly to the homeowner. If paint is applied without a second wash, the low-grade surface area results in a poor outcome, with new paint bubbling and peeling within a short period of time.

• Several people have reported expensive plants suffering extensive, sometimes fatal damage, through chemical washing.

• There have been numerous reports of fish and other pets becoming sick, or dying, following chemical washing.

• Many people who suffer from allergies and asthma have reported severe reactions from chemical washing.

• The environmental damage of powerful chemicals entering our storm water system has a significant, long term, negative impact on the planet.

AWL’s Biodegradable Citrus Detergent ensures that your property, plants, pets and loved ones are 100% safe, providing total peace of mind.
