Who has tested and approved EnviroCair®?
EnviroCair® has been tested at Hope Hospital in Salford, St. Mary’s Hospital Paddington, Thor Laboratories Cheshire and Aynsome Laboratories in St. Helens. Under Biotech's rigorous testing programme, it is undergoing further testing at Glasgow Caledonian University.
The ingredients have also been tested and approved in the USA by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), whichever agency is applicable.
Biotech’s additional technical support and data comes from access to well known manufacturers of chemicals such as Lonza GmbH, who distribute products globally, and testing companies such as Evans Vanodine International plc. This support enables the Company to operate within the Government Health & Safety Regulations and in line with the Biocide Products Directive (BPD); all the chemical constituents are registered with the authorities administering the BPD.
The products have also been scrutinised by UKAS and NAMAS (accredited microbiology testing laboratories). This is part of Biotech’s testing programme which allows the adoption of new techniques and assists in the development of the Company’s next-generation products.
Is EnviroCair® safe?
Each constituent component has a manufacturers maximum recommended safety exposure limit. Testing has shown that EnviroCair® components do not exceed even 1/10,000th of such limits.
A toxicology assessment has been carried out by Professor Alastair Hay at the Molecular Epidemiology Unit of the University of Leeds.
How does EnviroCair® compare with other products on the market?
EnviroCair® remains active on any surface where it is deposited, unlike any other product. Some products rely on sterilisation of a room and its contents by saturation using hydrogen peroxide (bleach), and some apply heat. Neither can be applied whilst a patient is in the room, and after these treatments have been applied, any new influx of bacteria will be unaffected and unharmed.
Is EnviroCair® used by any national organisation?
Due to the unique properties of EnviroCair®, it is used in the coating of vehicles for the National Blood Service, vehicles for carrying samples for water treatment companies, and numerous fresh food transport company vehicles. See EnviroCair®-SC.
Are there any known side-effects to either people or the environment?
EnviroCair® is perfectly safe and has passed irritancy tests when applied directly on to human skin or inhaled without causing
