Product overview
Dish wash liquid is one of the fastest-moving household cleaning products, because it is bought again and again and used every day. A good product produces stable foam, removes cooking oil without long scrubbing, rinses cleanly and stays gentle on hands. Buyers also judge it by look and feel: the colour, the fragrance on the sponge and how far a small squeeze goes.
A GoodBiz Global company and merchant exporter from India, GoodBiz Hygiene sources dish wash liquid from vetted Indian blenders. We do not run blending plants ourselves. Instead we source dish wash liquid and gel from vetted Indian manufacturers, check the specification against your requirements and handle export documentation and shipping as a single point of contact.
Grades and formulations
Dish wash liquids are built on anionic surfactants such as LABSA and SLES, often with a co-surfactant for foam stability and a thickener to set the viscosity. Standard grades typically carry 15-25% active matter and suit mass-market retail. Concentrated grades, typically 25-30%, use less water and are popular where freight cost per wash matters or where the brand promises long-lasting value. Gel versions are thicker and are usually sold in squeeze bottles with a flip-top cap.
Fragrance is the main shelf differentiator. Lemon and lime remain the most requested in nearly every market. Orange and green apple give a softer, fruitier profile. An antibacterial lemon version carries a mild antimicrobial additive for buyers who want that claim, subject to local regulation. An unscented or sensitive-skin version with minimal dye is available for foodservice and baby-care positioning.
Packaging for export
Dish wash liquid ships in PET or HDPE bottles of 250 ml to 1 L, refill pouches, and 5 L jerry cans, with 20 L carboys and 200 L drums for restaurants and re-packers. Retail cartons hold 12 bottles, and 5 L cans go two or four to a carton. Bottles are light, so volume limits the container, while carboys and drums are payload-limited.
Private label options
Retail dish wash brands usually choose a bottle shape from stock, a shrink sleeve or label, and a lemon or lime scent, then decide between a liquid or gel texture and active-matter level. Refill pouches under the same label cut your packaging cost. Label proofs and a liquid sample are approved first. Lead time is typically 3-5 weeks after confirmation.
Why source through GoodBiz Hygiene
Dish wash buyers split into supermarkets that want branded bottles and caterers that want 20 L carboys. GoodBiz Hygiene can quote both from the same formula to keep supply simple. FOB, CIF and CFR are available; payment terms are agreed per order (T/T or LC). Shipments leave from major Indian ports. The HSN code shown is the 6-digit level, and the full 8-digit ITC-HS code is confirmed for each order. Share your active-matter target, fragrance and pack mix and we will return a quotation.

Straight answers.
What is the difference between dish wash liquid and dish wash gel?
The cleaning chemistry is similar. A gel is simply thickened to a higher viscosity, which many shoppers read as stronger and more economical, while a thin liquid pours faster and suits refill pouches and bulk dispensing. Either can be supplied in the fragrances and active levels you choose.
Buyer FAQ
What active matter levels are available?
Typical standard grades sit around 15-25% active detergent matter and concentrated grades around 25-30%. A higher level gives more washing power per millilitre, and the right choice depends on your price point and what local brands offer.
Buyer FAQ
What is the minimum order quantity?
There is no fixed minimum order: trial orders and part loads are quoted per order. Mixed loads that combine several fragrances, pack sizes or other kitchen care items can often be arranged, though each private-label design may carry its own minimum.
Buyer FAQ
Can the product be supplied in bulk for re-packing?
Yes. 20 L carboys, 50 L carboys and 200 L drums are available for buyers who fill their own bottles. Bulk liquid should be filled and shipped under agreed quality checks, and pack-out details are confirmed on the quotation.
Buyer FAQ
Which documents are provided with a shipment?
Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin are standard. A product specification sheet and a certificate of analysis (COA) per batch can be requested, and an MSDS is available on request. Other documents are confirmed per order.
