Hardware shop, ask for soda washing crystals.Use to be in a blue box the size of a small packet of washing powder.
Be careful, it does not come with CoSHH and used commercially it will require a DATA sheet.

What, if I may be so bold, do you require good old Soda crystal for? There are alternatives!

Try Brillo degreaser in solution - far better than a caustic soak.
