Some bike cleaners out there have a carbon footprint bigger than the Jurassic Park T-Rex, but not Muc-Off. Muc-Off is always looking for new ways to reduce their plastic and water usage along with their CO2 output; so they got cracking on the epic task of developing the ultimate powder-based, plastic free bike cleaner! Over three years, Muc-Off tested and tinkered with hundreds of versions until they landed on this high-tech powder cleaner wizardry. Why so long? Well, it’s really difficult to create something in a powdered form that offers phenomenal cleaning power, whilst also being plastic free, readily biodegradable and which contains as many plant-based ingredients as possible. Muc-Off trialed over 20 development variations before landing on the one; but here it is – ready for you to experience the future of bike cleaning.

SERIOUSLY POWDERFUL – Muc-Off’s cleaners have been the benchmark for bike washing since they arrived on the scene in 1994, and their new powder delivers epic cleaning performance, in a smaller and more convenient 30g pouch. Formulated using the latest technological advancements and plant-based ingredients, Muc-Off’s newest creation is incredibly safe for the environment and all bikes and finishes. It’s safe on all parts and surfaces including carbon fiber. It will not harm seals, cables, disc brake pads or rotors.

CONSCIENCE-FREE CLEANING – Sustainability built in? Damn right! Muc-Off has worked on every aspect of Punk Powder to make sure it’s as green as can be. The powder is made from readily biodegradable ingredients, of which 75% are plant-based, plus it’s vegan and vegetarian friendly and like all Muc-Off’s products, never tested on animals. Its alkaline based and free from alcohol, CFCs, EDTA, solvents or acids.

ECO-REFILLS – The fast-dissolving formula means it’s ready for use within seconds of water being added, and if you want to go full eco-warrior you can even use collected rainwater! It’s extra eco-friendly and reduces the amount of processed tap water you’re using to clean your bike. Any water can be used if it’s clean. So next time you’re heading out for a ride, take a sachet and you can keep clean, wherever the ride takes you. Simply reuse your old Muc-Off bottle and get busy cleaning – it even works with Muc-Off’s pressure washer to create an awesome foam for the fastest clean possible.

MOTHER-EARTH-FRIENDLY – It’s not just the powder that’s green and mean (on grime), but the packaging too. The packaging is 100% plastic-free and petroleum-free and is made from more than 50% renewable raw materials – Muc-Off even used vegetable-based inks! Each sachet is compostable and certified to EN 13432 standard. The four sachets come in a recycled FSC card box, with a huge 92% packaging saving compared to 4 x 1L of Nano Tech cleaner plastic bottles.

MISSION INITIATED – Thanks to Punk Powder being water-free, it’s significantly lighter and smaller to ship. This dramatically reduces Muc-Off’s CO2 impact throughout the entire global supply chain, giving the product end-to-end sustainability. Globally, Muc-Off calculated that by using Punk Powder, we will save more than 61 tons of plastic per year from being used.

At Muc-Off, they don’t do things by halves. Punk Powder not only delivers the signature cleaning power you’ve come to expect, but also from production right through to the powder itself, sustainability is built in. So you can shred hard, with a clean bike and conscience. It truly is a guilt-free gleam! Punk Powder is the future of bike cleaning – the future is here!
