About Cleaner Future

Started at the sink.

Cleaner Future began as a family business supplying the automotive trade, making chemicals locally for dealerships and rental fleets that needed product made properly and delivered on time. The move into hospitality was not a strategy. It was a return.

Our founder's first ever job was washing dishes in a restaurant kitchen, and he spent his early working life in hospitality before moving into sales and marketing. He knew what a busy service looked like from the dish pit, and he knew what a supplier looked like from the loading dock.

Alex started Cleaner Future because he saw a gap nobody in the industry was closing. The global chemical companies had the chemistry and the expertise, but the service that came with it was thin: a rep every few months, a drum at the door, and a phone number that rang out on a Saturday. The local suppliers had the service but not the chemistry or the systems. Venues were being asked to choose between the two.

Cleaner Future was built to be both: the chemistry and the people from the global companies, inside a business built around service. Global-standard chemistry and dispensing, formulated and manufactured here, with the kind of service you only get from a business that answers its own phone. Alex came to it as a young entrepreneur with a sales and marketing background rather than a chemistry one, and that shaped the company. It was built around the customer's operation first, and the product was made to fit it.

“I like to think I bring a young, fresh approach to an industry that has done things the same way for a long time. A new set of eyes, looking at every site through the lens of innovation.”

We're grateful for every venue that trusts us with their kitchen, their rooms or their laundry, and we work like it. Welcome to the family.

Hired from the industry

Good people from big companies, given room to be better.

Our team came from the chemical companies you already know. They arrived with the chemistry, the equipment knowledge and years of walking kitchens, laundries and housekeeping floors. What they did not have was a business that let them do the job properly: time on site, the authority to fix a problem the day they found it, and a company that measures service rather than just sales. We gave them that. The result is a team of hungry professionals with big-company expertise and small-company accountability, who treat a site like it is their own account, because it is.

What we believe.

A chemical on a shelf is not hygiene. Hygiene happens at the sink, the machine and the trolley, and it only counts if it can be measured. So we take the dose out of a person's hands, put it under a dispenser, and write down what we find on every visit. Most suppliers drop drums at the door. We run the program.

How we work.

Consolidation.

Fewer products, more impact.

Brand-new equipment.

Upgrades supplied with the program, not billed after it.

Seven-day support.

Immediate response, every day of the week.

Customised solutions.

Structured reporting and training built to your sites.

Direct communication.

Easy access to the people who own your account.

Australian made.

Family owned and operated, supporting local.

Perseverance.

We stop when the job is done, not when we are tired.

The cleaner, the better.™

A different offer, on purpose.
