Super Asco: The Ecological and Powerful Drain Cleaner
The spring-loaded drain cleaner patented by Parodi & Parodi of Genoa. Super Asco’s introduction genuinely revolutionized how to handle clogged drains.
The tool, constantly refined, has given Parodi & Parodi that “trademark” built on solid concepts like reliability and trustworthiness—characteristics that remain true for all our products today.
Super powerful: It really works! Ecological: Works without chemical drain cleaners! Made in Italy: The drain cleaner produced in Italy!
The Product
The Spring: What gives Super Asco its soul is in the handle: a spring tensioned precisely right. This guarantees a formidable action to clear obstructions in drain pipes. This is where the name SUPER ASCO comes from—for its ability to aspirate and compress.
The Plunger: Combined with the articulated handle that won’t detach from the work surface, Super Asco’s winning action is also due to its distinctive and ingenious plunger design.
Super Asco Pack: Parodi & Parodi’s iconic orange spring-loaded drain cleaner! Our historic product, constantly improved, now comes in a fresh, attractive package with dynamic, colorful design.
How to Use: Proper use requires placing the plunger firmly against the drain and using one hand to block any side overflow holes (some sinks don’t have them). This way, Super Asco delivers its maximum power.
The Birth of a Legend
The Super Asco drain cleaner—now also as a superhero!
Super Asco, our superhero, was created by the pen of Agostino and Franco Origone. The Genoese brothers have been active in comics and illustration for over thirty years, creating thousands of comic strips and the humorous series Nilus, set in an unlikely ancient Egypt and appreciated in several foreign countries as well.
Our Super Asco joins the long line of characters they’ve created: a very particular type—charming and somewhat clumsy—equipped (by Parodi & Parodi) with extraordinary tools with which an ordinary person can brilliantly solve even the trickiest situations.
Super Asco manages to turn usually solvable problems into complete disasters with the tools he has. And this is where the humor and hilarious power of the character comes from.
