Slõ Drinks thickener for Dysphagia friendly drinks

Tins of Thickener Belong in the Dark Ages

Thickening drinks for people with dysphagia doesn’t have to mean opening a tin of powder, measuring out scoops, and hoping you’ve got the right consistency. That way of doing things is slow, messy, and often results in drinks that are lumpy, cloudy, or left unfinished.

It’s time for something safer, easier, and more enjoyable.

Meet Slõ Syrup – A Liquid Drinks Thickener

Slõ Syrup is a new kind of liquid drinks thickener designed to replace outdated powdered thickeners. It comes in a pump-dispensed bottle that delivers an exact dose every time:

  • Press once for Level 1 (Slightly Thick)

  • Press twice for Level 2 (Mildly Thick)

  • Press three times for Level 3 (Moderately Thick)

That’s it. No guesswork. No scoops. No lumps. Just safe, reliable drinks—made in seconds.

Who’d have thought the fastest way to safely thicken a drink… is to go Slõ?

Tastes Like the Drinks You Love

Unlike powdered thickeners, Slõ Syrup mixes in easily and has no flavour. That means tea, coffee, juice, fizzy drinks, even a glass of wine taste just like the originals—only now safer to swallow.

People with dysphagia deserve drinks that don’t just meet IDDSI Levels but also taste and look as they should. That’s what Slõ Syrup delivers.

Easier for Carers and Clinicians

Carers and clinicians know how important it is to keep people hydrated. Slõ Syrup makes it easier:

  • One pump = the exact dose needed

  • Clear IDDSI Levels, shown on pack

  • No scoops, no wasted powder, no risk of under- or over-thickening

It saves time, reduces waste, and improves compliance—because people are more likely to finish drinks that actually taste like drinks.

  • 1 Litre bottles for everyday use

That’s why we say: Tins of thickener belong in the dark ages.
