Our business was founded on the idea that results can be evidence driven. We pride ourselves on our approach in the scientific derivation of formulations tailored to the needs of each industry we serve. We uphold industry leading standards in quality control, maintaining exact standards and constantly undertaking studies to ensure that our products are the best they can be.

Efficacy

• HOCl: Kills bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores 120 times more effectively than bleach while remaining gentle on surfaces and skin.

• Bleach (Sodium Hypochlorite): Highly effective but corrosive, can produce toxic fumes, and leaves harmful residues.

• Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (Quats): Effective but can cause skin and respiratory irritation and may contribute to antimicrobial resistance.

• Alcohol-based Disinfectants: Kill many pathogens quickly but evaporate fast, may be less effective against certain viruses and spores, and can dry out skin.

Safety & Toxicity

• HOCl: Non-toxic, non-irritating, and food-safe, making it ideal for sensitive environments such as hospitals, schools, and food processing.

• Bleach & Quats: Can be hazardous to inhale, cause skin irritation, and require thorough rinsing on food-contact surfaces.

• Alcohol-based Disinfectants: Flammable and can cause dryness or irritation with frequent use.

Environmental Impact

• HOCl: Biodegradable, breaks down into water and salt, and produces no harmful byproducts.

• Bleach & Quats: Can release toxic residues into water systems and contribute to environmental pollution.

• Alcohol-based Disinfectants: Generally safer for the environment but require careful handling due to flammability.

Ease of Use

• HOCl: Ready-to-use, requires no dilution, no rinsing, and is safe for direct skin and surface contact.

• Bleach & Quats: Require dilution, proper ventilation, and often necessitate rinsing to remove harmful residues.

• Alcohol-based Disinfectants: Fast-acting but evaporate quickly, requiring frequent reapplication.

Sani-TEST HOCl standard strength solutions have an EPA Registered shelf life of 4 months, meaning the concentration will be within ± 10% of the labeled concentration for a period of at least 4 months minimum. For hypochlorous solutions that are not EPA registered, the typical shelf life of our products is between 6 months to 1 year.

USDA Organic is a certification granted by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) that ensures products meet strict guidelines for organic production, handling, and labeling. Specifically, a USDA Organic certified must meet the following criteria:

• Natural & Sustainable Ingredients: Must be made with approved organic ingredients, free from synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs).

• No Harmful Chemicals: Cannot contain artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors, and must avoid toxic substances like synthetic solvents or irradiation.

• Strict Production Standards: Must follow sustainable farming or manufacturing practices that protect the environment, including soil and water conservation.

• Certified by an Accredited Agency: Products are reviewed and audited by USDA-approved certifiers to ensure compliance with organic regulations.

EPA-registered means that a product has been reviewed and approved by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for its effectiveness and safety when used as directed. This registration is required for disinfectants, pesticides, and antimicrobial products to ensure they meet federal standards. If a product is EPA-registered as a disinfectant, it means it has undergone rigorous testing to confirm its ability to kill or neutralize specific pathogens, making it reliable for use in homes, healthcare settings, food service, and other environments. EPA registered products must demonstrate:

• Efficacy Verification: The product has been tested and proven to effectively eliminate bacteria, viruses, fungi, or other harmful microorganisms.

• Safety Evaluation: The EPA assesses the product’s impact on human health, animals, and the environment, ensuring it can be used safely when following instructions.

• Proper Labeling: The product must include accurate usage directions, safety precautions, and claims that are backed by scientific data.

• Regulatory Compliance: EPA-registered products comply with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), which governs antimicrobial and disinfectant products.

As we maintain the confidentiality of our customer’s product lines and formulations, we can say we proudly offer EPA-registered products as part of our standard formulations.

While hypochlorous is our specialty, we also have the knowledge and expertise to produce other similar USDA Organic products.

Sani-TEST is always eager for new opportunities and we have welcomed the many industries we serve. We are proud of our nationwide locations and the scalability that provides to better serve our customers. No matter how large or small, we are confident that we can serve your needs.

Our production process is unique in that it has no waste streams and can produce exacting and repeatable results. Patents have been filed on our Sani-TEST production process and are in a patent-pending status.

We utilize a patent-pending electrochemical process that makes use of USDA Certified Organic additives to produce a range of hypochlorous acid products. This approach with carefully formulated additives and proven technology enables us to meet specific application needs from skincare to farming to commercial facility disinfection as well as license this technology for residential and commercial use.
