Dri Pak Citric Acid is part of the Dri Pak Clean and Natural range. Dri Pak citric acid is a natural descaler that uses the same active ingredients found in fruit and vegetables - most notably lemons and limes – to effectively fight and prevent limescale build up all around the home.

Using acid is the simplest method of removing limescale deposits. Kettle elements are perhaps the most instantly recognisable sign of limescale deposits, but they can also be found on taps, showerheads, and even in the grout between tiles. On top of that, there are limescale deposits that can't be seen, such as in coffee machines, washing machines, steam irons and the heating elements of baby sterilisers.

It is recommended that you descale such appliances regularly, as the harder your water (you can ask your water company how 'hard' the water is in your area), the more regularly it will need doing. Left untreated, your energy bills will rise - as electricity is used to heat the limescale first - and the sooner the equipment will fail.

Dri-Pak produces a range of traditional household cleaning and laundry products that are incredibly versatile and do not contain any harmful chemicals, enzymes or phosphates. Dri Pak Citric Acid for cleaning is part of the range of natural all purpose cleaning products available at Big Green Smile.

I used to use a branded descaler that came in 10 small sachets. It cost a lot more than one box of this and I get far more than 10 uses out of this box. Superb value.

Handy pack to mix up as needed. All sorts of uses from keeping lime scale at bay on taps and in appliances. I use it occasionally with hot water to soak shirts with yellowing and stiffness on the underarms for about 20 minutes. Dip them in bicarbonate afterwards and put straight in the wash and they come out as good as new.
J. E., Ryhall
25/06/2022
Invaluable for all sorts of things, but particularly good as a toilet cleaner! Chuck it round/down the loo and leave overnight or during the day then brush. Eliminates limescale stains better than commercial toilet cleaners.
J. C., Halstead

I use this to clean the dishwasher and washing machine. Leaves both smelling fresh.
J. G., Orpington
06/11/2021
Love this stuff, perfect for cleaning soap scum, limescale, using as a fabric softener etc. I always decant into an old jar as I find it ends up absorbing water and getting damp when it's in just the cardboard

Works very well at descaling.
A. T., Cowes

This product is excellent for discaling the kettle, washing machine and also the dishwasher. Also this product is "shed" loads cheaper than the wellknown make on the market. Still environmentally friendly and great for Vegans.

I've started making my own vinegar for getting rid of limescale and other cleaning tasks. I make it stronger than the instructions on the on the Dri-Pak leaflet because we're in a hard water area.Very happy to not be buying any more single use plastic....and reusing what I already have!

P. C., Batheaston
22/07/2020
used this in my kettle and it removed the limescale deposits that had built up. The crystals are loose on a cardboard box and
I would prefer a safer way of storing them. Luckily I had an old *** *** so I very carefully decanted it into the ***. A box with a pouring facility would be safer.

I love discovering the next thing I can use this for - whether it's removing the limescale at the bottom of the toilet, in the kettle, around the rim of my cats' water bowls...I'm so confident in citric acid now!
