Description
Chemz Hand Sanitiser is a highly effective alcohol-based sanitiser which also
contains Benzalkonium Chloride (BAC) disinfectant to give additional sanitising
power.
WHAT BUGS WILL IT KILL?
Ethyl alcohol will kill most bacteria, including mycobacteria, and is effective in concentrations over 60%.
Alcohol has particularly good activity against viruses such as herpes, HIV, Influenza, and Hepatitis B&C with moderate
activity against Hepatitis A. It has also been shown to be effective in disinfecting surfaces contaminated with pandemic viruses such as Ebola and SARS Coronavirus and has some activity against Norovirus, Ebola virus, and several coronaviruses.
The Journal of Hospital Infection concludes: “Human corona viruses can remain infectious on inanimate surfaces for up to 9
days. Surface disinfection with 62-71% ethanol significantly reduces corona virus infectivity on surfaces within 1 min
exposure time. We expect a similar effect against the SARS-CoV- 2″
Benzalkonium chloride is a fast-acting biocidal agent with a moderately long duration of action. It is active against bacteria and some viruses, fungi, and protozoa and remains active and effective for up to 4 hours.
