What is the Detachur Fibel

The BÜFA Detachur-Fibel is a technical guide to professional stain removal for dry cleaners and textile care. It covers pre-spotting (before cleaning) and post-spotting (after), with emphasis on fibre and dye protection — not on “recipes” without context.

TARAX publishes a faithful Greek translation of the guide (and an English edition) for the shop team and spotting training.

Professional spotting means cleaning quality fabrics without fibre damage. It requires merchandise knowledge, process technology and chemical know-how. BÜFA Detachur Fibel · introduction

What the guide covers

  • Core chemistry — surfactants (anionic / cationic / non-ionic / amphoteric) and pH values· why anionic agents are used in brushing.
  • Fibre knowledge — natural, chemical and synthetic fibres; appearance/touch test and burn test; properties of wool, cotton, silk, viscose, acetate, acrylic, polyamide, polyester.
  • Stain identification — water-bound vs greasy; outline, feel, colour, odour, position on the garment.
  • Classification & removal — starch/sugar, protein, tannin, fats/colours, oxides; dissolving, softening, mechanical action, enzymes (Oldozym AP), chemical conversion.
