At the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC) 2017 annual conference, Clorox Healthcare announced important enhancements to two of its leading healthcare disinfectants. Reformulated Clorox Healthcare Hydrogen Peroxide Cleaner Disinfectants and Clorox Healthcare Bleach Germicidal Wipes continue to offer the same powerful disinfection efficacy that hospitals trust, now with improved surface compatibility and visibly less residue.

“At Clorox Healthcare we are constantly innovating, continuously working to improve our industry-leading product portfolio to meet the evolving needs of the healthcare environment. We are committed to providing the efficacy, compatibility and aesthetics that healthcare facilities need to provide optimal patient care,” says Laurie Rabens, senior product manager – Marketing, Clorox Healthcare. “For years Clorox Healthcare has led the field with disinfectants that healthcare facilities trust for their broad efficacy, fast kill times and ease of use. Now we’ve optimized those products for an even better user and patient experience.”

Innovative features of reformulated Clorox Healthcare Hydrogen Peroxide Cleaner Disinfectants and Clorox Healthcare Bleach Germicidal Wipes include:

• Clorox Healthcare Hydrogen Peroxide Cleaner Disinfectants: Clorox Healthcare Hydrogen Peroxide Cleaner Disinfectant Wipes and Sprays offer the fastest non-bleach disinfecting times available for over 40 microorganisms and are noncorrosive to hard and soft surfaces commonly found in healthcare facilities. They are formulated for superior patient and staff comfort with no harsh chemical fumes or odors.
• Clorox Healthcare Bleach Germicidal Wipes: Clorox Healthcare Bleach Germicidal Wipes, which kill 58 microorganisms, including Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) spores, in three minutes or less, have been optimized for extended usage in healthcare facilities with improved surface compatibility and less residue compared with competitor bleach disinfectant wipes.

These product enhancements build on a legacy of innovation in ready-to-use cleaner-disinfectants engineered to eliminate the need for tradeoffs between efficacy and surface compatibility. Clorox Healthcare Hydrogen Peroxide Cleaner Disinfectants and Clorox Healthcare Bleach Germicidal Wipes join products like Clorox Healthcare Fuzion Cleaner Disinfectant, a new type of bleach that combines disinfecting efficacy against tough-to-kill pathogens like C. difficile spores with broad surface compatibility, in a class of ready-to-use disinfectants that are tough on pathogens, yet easy on surfaces with the aesthetics required for broad use facility-wide.
