Despite being lethal to micro-organisms, Virusolve+ is easy to handle, bio-degradable and safe to use.
Either as a wipe, a concentrate or a ready-to-use solution, Virusolve+ is also odourless, colourless, and non-toxic.
Unlike many chlorine or alcohol or phenol-based disinfectants, it is non-corrosive to equipment.
In fact, Virusolve+ can be used to treat almost any surface not affected by water, including fabrics, rubbers and plastics.
It can be used as a non-rinse disinfectant on walls, floors, ceilings and fittings, as a pre-cleaner for medical and surgical instruments, and as a cleaner for body fluid spillages - simply, inexpensively and safely.
Manufactured in the UK, Virusolve+ has undergone rigorous testing at Europe's leading laboratories, including the Hospital Infection Research Laboratory in Birmingham, the Texcell Laboratory (Part of Institute Pasteur), Paris, and the UK Health Protection Agency.
Virusolve+ is CE Marked (CE 0120), hence all of the claims have been audited and verified on behalf of the UK regulator MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency).
