Qualkem Branded Products

Over the last 50 years we have become specialist in our own right in certain sectors: we were the first company to develop dedicated products for the commercial Portable Toilet sector under our Destrol brand. Using this knowledge we launched the 40shot brand and subsequently the Proshot brand into the Camping & Caravanning and Marine sectors. Due to staff’s close connection with the Brass Band Movement in the UK, we launched our b# brand, under this brand we manufacture the only dedicated brass musical instrument cleaning soak in the world. Lastly but no means least, is our Electrosan brand This is made in conjunction with our manufacturing partner to offer the only BPR approved Hypochlorous liquid and gel sanitiser/disinfectant. Hypochlorous is probably the safest most effective sanitising/disinfection product available. It will kill upto 99.9999% of all bacteria, viruses and spores yet is harmless to humans, animals and the environment.
