Disinfect in One Easy Step with Diversey Care's Oxivir Tb
Sealed Air’s Diversey Care division today announces the addition of a one-gallon size of Oxivir® Tb Disinfectant Cleaner. In addition to being effective on hard surfaces against bacteria and viruses that can cause healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), Oxivir Tb Disinfectant Cleaner also has Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approval as a sanitizer for six pathogens on soft surfaces.
Oxivir Tb can clean and disinfect surfaces in as little as one minute. It is non-irritating to skin and eyes, requires no personal protective equipment and is compatible with most common healthcare surfaces and equipment. The one-step solution designed for use in healthcare environments is tough enough to clean and disinfect surfaces and equipment in one pass while being gentle on staff and surfaces.
“Oxivir® Tb, powered by Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide (AHP) technology, reduces turnover time while keeping costs in line,” says Carolyn Cooke, vice president of healthcare North America, Diversey Care. “Healthcare staff can increase speed and effectiveness with a disinfectant that is effective against a broad spectrum of pathogens in just one minute. Oxivir Tb improves compliance by staying wet on the surface for the required label contact time which ensures disinfection while streamlining the process.”
Oxivir Tb is also available in a 32-ounce ready-to-use flip cap or spray bottle to meet your specific needs.
Diversey Care is a division of Sealed Air Corp., a leader in food safety and security, facility hygiene and product protection.
