The Amazon Basics 50 oz Antibacterial Soap is a high-volume utility product designed for decanting into smaller countertop dispensers. The formula is Triclosan-free and uses Benzalkonium Chloride for its antibacterial properties. This active ingredient is a standard in the industry for providing a broad-spectrum kill rate against common household pathogens while remaining stable for long-term storage in your pantry.
The bottle is made of High-Density Polyethylene and features a standard 38-400 neck finish, which is compatible with many common pump tops if you choose to attach one directly. The wall thickness is designed to handle being stacked on a shelf, but users should be careful not to store the jug in very hot areas, as changes in vapor pressure can cause the plastic to slightly deform or "panel" inward.
Practical Safety Features: The formula is paraben-free and phthalate-free, offering a straightforward approach to home hygiene.
This is a liquid soap with a viscosity calibrated for non-foaming dispensers. If you intend to use it in a foaming pump, you will need to dilute it with water—typically at a 3:1 ratio—to avoid seizing the pump head. The scent is often described as "clinical" or "industrial," which makes it a practical choice for workshops or mudrooms where a strong, clean scent is preferred over floral or fruity perfumes.
If you are looking for a more "citrus" aromatic experience, the J.R. Watkins Lemon 3-pack is a great alternative. To manage your bulk refills more easily, consider the storage options in our rolling storage shelves section.
