Our History
The discovery of hypochlorous acid dates back to the 1800s. While it was initially used to kill sulfate reducing bacteria in oil wells, it has proven to be highly effective in many arenas. Its uses in the medical field began during World War I and II in treating injuries and chemical burns.Since then, HOCl has been used in healthcare for wound cleaning and redressing, usually via topical application. It’s used in agriculture and farming to control microbial populations via the irrigation system. It’s even used to sanitize drinking water in the poultry industry resulting in healthier birds. It’s used in seniors care facilities to protect patrons and workers against MRSA, C.Diff, Staph and many more smart bugs. It’s used in schools to kill Covid-19 and in cafeteria and restaurant food prep areas to stop the spread of E-Coli and Salmonella.
