Sanosil Disinfectant Spray
for surfaces
What does “Touchless Disinfecting” mean?
Wiping spreads germs from surface to surface. Because Sanosil is non-toxic, it requires no rinsing and no wiping. Simply spray and walk away.
How does Sanosil compare to other disinfectants?
Superior Efficacy
Sanosil is a broad-spectrum disinfectant that kills a wide range of bacteria, viruses and fungi. It performs equal to, if not better than, other disinfectants.
Improved Safety
Bleach and other leading disinfectants are carcinogenic (cancer-causing) and mutagenic (mutates genes). They also cause severe eye, skin and lung irritation. Sanosil contains no toxic ingredients, and is the safer choice for disinfecting.
Does Sanosil kill H1N1 Swine Flu Virus?
Yes. Sanosil is independently tested and approved to kill the H1N1 Swine Flu Virus. Sanosil is also effective against mutating viruses because it works in three ways to kill micro-organisms. Other leading disinfectants kill in only one way making them ineffective against mutating viruses.
What organisms does Sanosil kill on surfaces?
- Swine Flu (H1N1 strain)
- New Castle Virus

Is Sanosil cost-effective?
Yes. On average, Sanosil requires 10 times less volume to treat compared to bleach or bromine, which is equal to a 30% net savings.
Does Sanosil require expensive dosing equipment?
No. Sanosil can be introduced into a system immediately and requires no complicated or expensive equipment.
