BÜFA has been a family-owned German chemical company since 1883, and its textile care division supplies professional dry cleaners and laundries across Europe. Unicorp is the authorised distributor in South Africa.
Spotting is a skill, not a product
The single largest quality difference between two dry cleaners running identical machines is usually what happens at the spotting table before the garment goes in. The right pre-spotting agent applied by somebody who knows the fibre and the stain will save garments that the main bath will not. That is why we treat training as part of the supply rather than an extra. The table itself, with vacuum, steam and spotting guns, is the Reverberi M4201 TASMAC.
Handling and storage
Everything here comes with a safety data sheet, and we will provide them in advance for your OHS file. Storage, decanting and ventilation requirements vary by product and are worth reading before the first delivery arrives rather than after.
Matching chemistry to solvent
A spotting range that suits a perchloroethylene shop is not automatically right for a hydrocarbon or wet cleaning operation. Tell us what you run.

Questions
Answers before you enquire
- Do you supply safety data sheets?
- Yes. Every product we supply comes with its SDS, and we will send them ahead of delivery for your file if you ask.
- Can you train our staff on the chemical range?
- Yes. Operator training on your own floor is part of what we do, and spotting technique is the part of it that pays back fastest.

Chemistry, and the training to use it
Tell us the solvent you run and the work you take in. The right spotting range depends on both.
