High-Touch Public Environments safe and sanitized

Imagine the busy hands that touch car seats, armrests, door handles, and controls in cars, trucks, yachts, and public transportation. Frequent contact, often coupled with inconsistent cleaning, can lead to unpleasant odors and potential germ problems. Beyond Klean tackles these issues with hygiene solutions for both hard and soft surfaces, creating an environment where microbes struggle to thrive. Beyond the Cleaning Cycle: Cleaning alone isn't enough. Moisture and other factors can still allow microbes to grow back, causing odors, stains, and damage. The Beyond Klean System of Care offers a two-step approach: 1. Clean & Sanitize: Start with our EPA-registered (#89492-2) disinfectant, a powerful weapon against a broad spectrum of pathogens. This safe and easy-to-use spray leaves your ride clean and deodorized. 2. Chito Armor Protection: This one-step sealant provides long-lasting biostatic protection for various surfaces. Think of it as tiny magnets that attract and remove micr...

Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) can pose various dangers to human health and well-being.

Common contaminants found in indoor environments include: Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): These are emitted by household products such as cleaning supplies, paints, adhesives, and furniture. Prolonged exposure to VOCs can lead to respiratory irritation, headaches, dizziness, and even long-term health effects. Particulate Matter (PM): These are tiny particles suspended in the air, such as dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores. Inhaling PM can trigger allergies, asthma attacks, and other respiratory problems. Mold and Mildew: Moisture issues can lead to the growth of mold and mildew, which release spores into the air. Inhalation of these spores can cause allergic reactions, respiratory issues, and in some cases, severe infections. Carbon Monoxide (CO): This colorless, odorless gas is produced by fuel-burning appliances like stoves, heaters, and fireplaces. High levels of CO can be deadly, leading to carbon monoxide poisoning, characterized by symptoms like dizziness, nausea, and e...

The Presence of an Odor: A Sign of a Problem

 T he Presence of an Odor: A Sign of a Problem When you detect an unpleasant odor in your surroundings, it's more than just a nuisance for your senses. The presence of an odor often indicates the presence of a problem that needs immediate attention. Ignoring or masking the odor may lead to further complications or health hazards. One effective solution to tackle odor-related issues is the use of Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2). Understanding the Significance of Odor Odors can originate from various sources, including biological, chemical, or environmental factors. Common examples include pet urine, mold and mildew, sewage, garbage, and chemicals. These odors not only cause discomfort but can also be indicative of potential health risks or underlying issues. They may point to the presence of harmful bacteria, pathogens, or pollutants in the air or surfaces. Introducing Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) ClO2, commonly known as Chlorine Dioxide, is a powerful and versatile oxidizing agent. It has ...
