  • Patent number: 10858814
    Abstract: A toilet rim block which consists of an outer cover and a core, and to a rim block cage including the toilet rim block. The outer cover includes a first composition and the core includes a second composition. Preferably, the first and the second compositions differ from each other by at least one of the following features: different active substances, different concentration but same active substance, and different viscosity. The outer cover partly encloses the core and the core protrudes on at least one face of the toilet rim block right to the surface as a pole and is exposed. The core is shaped such that the surface of the exposed area changes upon even wear of the surface of the toilet rim block, the surface of the exposed area of the core reducing upon even wear of the surface of the toilet rim block.

  • Publication number: 20170283743
    Abstract: Provided is a multi-layer self-adhesive gel suitable for use in cleaning, disinfecting, deodorizing, and/or scenting of toilets, sinks, wash-bowls, bathtubs, showers, and for delivery of shower gel or shampoo in the shower, bathtub or wash-bowl. The multi-layer self-adhesive gel has at least two different self-adhesive gel layers. One gel layer (A) includes at least one solvent (a1), at least one adhesion promoter (b1) which is different from (a1), and at least one surfactant (c1) which is different from (a1) and (b1). Another gel layer (B) includes at least one solvent (a2), at least one adhesion promoter (b2) which is different from (a2). When the multi-layer self-adhesive gel is applied onto a flat surface of a substrate, (A) and (B) together have a continuous, essentially even surface, remote from the surface of the substrate. Also provided are an applicator containing the multi-layer self-adhesive gel and methods of filling the applicator.
