Hexafectant®
(EPA Reg No. 82859-2-104424/EPA Est No. 82859-FL-1)
Over a decade ago, studies began on the ability of cell lysis buffers to disrupt cell membranes, rupturing them and releasing the cell contents. Cell lysis buffers are important to research and diagnostics because they allow for protein extraction from the cells while maintaining pH and protecting cellular proteins from degradation. As the work advanced, the cell lysis buffers were demonstrating efficacy against numerous microorganisms. These cell lysis buffers quickly emerged as a potentially safe, low toxic and a green category for disinfectants and sanitizers. Extensive studies of various formulations were performed by independent laboratories. Those studies demonstrated effective microorganism kill rates sufficient for EPA registration of the formulations as sanitizers and disinfectants. They also demonstrated stable chemistry and low toxicity. In fact, the companies patented formulations achieved EPA’s lowest toxicity rating. Hence, Hexafectant® was created and offered to make the world a safer place.

TO CLEAN, DEODORIZE SANITIZE, OR DISINFECT
Use Hexafectant® to clean, deodorize, sanitize, and disinfect hard, non-porous surfaces in one step. For heavily soiled surfaces, preclean by spraying soiled area and wiping clean. Apply solution to visibly clean, hard, non- porous surfaces by spraying 6-8 inches from the surface. Reapply as necessary to ensure that surface remains wet for required contact time. Allow to air dry.
Rinse empty container with water and discard as per federal, state and local guidelines. Suggested shelf life of Hexafectant® is 1 year.
Hexafectant® is available in 12×24 ounce cases, 4×1 gallon F-style cases, 2×2.5 gallon cases, 5 gallon pails, 55 gallon drums and 275 gallon totes.
