We’re partnering with nature to replace the thousands of harmful chemicals released into the environment every day with a single cell in a fermentation tank, all while delivering clear performance, cost, and environmental benefits for our customers.
Betco is the only chemical manufacturer to ferment our own beneficial bacteria to produce targeted probiotic cleaning solutions. Unlike manufacturers who purchase generalized bacterial strains and use them in every product, we are able to highly specialize our solutions for superior performance.
Our new Buy-In and Spiff Incentive Program offers distributors special discounted pricing and opportunities for sales reps to earn money for products sold! Additional perks include reorder discounts, provision of market-specific contact lists, and much more. With 3 tiers to choose from, there's a buy-in purchase amount that's right for every distributor!
We offer in-depth functional training on probiotic cleaning technology, including how it works, where to use it, and why to use it. With 3 e-learning courses, training at Betco HQ, and hands-on training at any facility location in North America, our offering is sure to make experts out of distributors and cleaning professionals alike.

Probiotics are a type of bacteria that do not cause illness, but provide benefits, like aiding with digestion and immunity. As a cleaning technology, probiotics remove all types of organic soils by consuming them.
Sprayed Push® on material and wiped top surface. Swabbed material for 3 weeks. Bacteria still viable after 21 days, proving continuous cleaning benefits.
Soils applied to marble surface (green dye, coffee, mustard, ketchup, red wine). After 1 hour, soils wiped, creating stains. No Rinse Floor Cleaner applied, dwelled 5 minutes, then wiped. Stains completely removed.
Kitchen grease buildup in jar simulates grease trap. Drain and Grease Trap applied. After 7 days, buildup reduced by 75%.
Kitchen grease and food particles built up in drain. Drain and Grease Trap applied daily. After 7 days, flow greatly improved.
LEFT: Conventional cleaner applied in C pattern. RIGHT: Push® applied in B pattern.
Incubated 24 hours. C (conventional) barely visible. Expanded B (Betco Push) pattern indicates organic material digested. Note: Organic material dyed red for visual purposes.
Commercial cleaning habits are changing, and biology offers a better way to remove fats, oils, greases, and petroleum soils. Select each application type to learn more and receive product recommendations.
Probiotics prevent clogs, reduce odor, and extend the life of the drain area. Though exact prices depend on severity, the average cost to clean a clogged drain is $130–$180, and a main sewer clog can cost up to $800 to unclog. Clogs can also necessitate additional plumbing repairs, and removing and replacing old pipes can cost upwards of several thousand dollars.
Floors are the collection area for most soils and need to be clean to prevent buildup and increase safety. Probiotics used to clean floors will reduce slips/falls and continue to work when washed down the drain, digesting organics as they flow through the pipes. Across all industries, slips and falls are the second most common form of injuries, causing workers to miss an average of 38 workdays per year. They account for 36% of emergency room visits and 65% of lost workdays.
Loading docks and platforms are subject to high traffic and heavy industrial loads, often leaving heavy grease and thick soil behind. Probiotics target petroleum residue and other industrial organics to reduce malodors and greasy films on cement, including loading docks and platforms, increasing worker safety and general facility cleanliness.
Commercial dumpsters are a breeding ground for foul smells. Excessive malodors invite unwanted pests, become a public nuisance, and lead to poor facility impressions and experiences. Probiotics provide long-term odor control for dumpsters, working long after application to control and reduce unpleasant odors. Eliminate dumpster odors at the source, armed with the proper equipment and products to treat your facility.
Probiotics will clean tile and grout walls and floors, which—due to porosity—are often dirty and soiled with urine, soap scum, stains, etc., especially around toilets and urinals and in shower areas. By digesting the source of malodors, probiotics provide complete odor control, and they continue to clean below the surface for up to 21 days.
Grease traps (interceptors) separate FOG from effluent so coagulated fats can be cordoned off and collected. The disposal of these elements can create issues as these substances can clog and damage building drains and pipes, septic systems, and municipal sewer systems. Poorly maintained grease traps can also run off and cause pollution if too full. Probiotics will reduce the frequency of pump outs—which average from $175–$475, $1,500 for poorly maintained traps, and several thousands of dollars for emergency situations. Probiotics also help eliminate FOG exceedance surcharges—which can reach thousands in a matter of days depending on municipality, as well as neutralize malodors.
Beverage tower trays collect excess runoff from drinks that are filled from a beverage tower. Probiotics can prevent common beverage tower tray problems, including the formulation of sugar snakes, controlling odors, and helping unclog blocked lines.
Probiotics will prevent downstream clogging and leave commercial kitchen sinks clean, odor-free, and running smoothly. They degrade and digest buildup and food soils, solubilizing FOGs on tough-to-reach sidewalls, blades, and pipes. Probiotics also mitigate drain flies by eliminating their food source.
Probiotics degrade uric acid, which is the leading cause of scaling. Often unnoticed until the buildup is severe enough to cause issues, scaling impedes urinal flow, blocks pipes, and results in unpleasant appearance and odors. In extreme cases, scaling can even require costly infrastructure replacement.
Portable toilets present unique cleaning challenges: a foul-smelling waste tank in an enclosed area, high traffic with frequent use, costly dumping fees, and strong odors that attract unwanted pests. Rather than using harmful carcinogenic chemicals like formaldehyde to control the smell, introduce eco-friendly probiotics. Targeted probiotic formulas continue digesting solids and paper for extended periods of time, which reduces dumping fees for sanitation companies due to diminished tank contents. Additionally, probiotics consume the source of malodors, leaving behind a pleasant fragrance. Probiotics are the better way to clean and maintain portable toilets.
Push® is the one-product solution effective for use on any hard surface, drain maintenance, carpet stain removal, and odor mitigation. Repeated applications will result in a natural, continuous, do-it-all clean. Now, this flagship probiotic cleaning solution is available in Classic Mint, Lemon & Sage, and Mango fragrances!
