Counter

What is Counter?

Counter is a general-purpose cleaner designed for kitchen surfaces, often used to tackle grease, food residue, and bacteria on countertops and tables. It contains strong surfactants and other cleaning agents that help break down stubborn stains, making it effective for daily cleaning. While helpful in removing dirt and sanitizing surfaces, its composition can sometimes lead to sensitivities in individuals, especially those with chemical allergies.

Why do I have an intolerance?

The cleaning agents and synthetic fragrances in Counter may irritate the respiratory system, causing symptoms such as coughing, sneezing, or nasal congestion. Prolonged exposure or direct contact can lead to skin irritation, with redness, itching, or dryness. Sensitive individuals, particularly those with asthma or allergies, may find the fumes overpowering in closed spaces.

What can I do about it?

Using Counter in a well-ventilated area can help reduce exposure to fumes. Wearing gloves when handling the product protects the skin, and for those with high sensitivity, a mask may further limit inhalation of the chemical particles. Alternatively, opting for natural cleaners, such as a mixture of vinegar and water or baking soda, provides a gentler, hypoallergenic approach that can clean effectively without triggering symptoms.
