General information on F10 Super Concentrate Disinfectant
F10 Super Concentrate Disinfectant (or F10SC Disinfectant) is a total spectrum disinfectant used for disinfection of hard surfaces, equipment and air spaces in the “non-veterinary or animal sectors” – such as pharmaceutical manufacturing, clean room and laboratory markets, food processing, and indeed any sort of commercial or domestic use. What sets F10 Super Concentrate Disinfectant apart from other "strong" disinfectants on the market is its combination of total spectrum microbial kill and the unmatched safety of the product itself in terms of not adversely affecting staff, or damaging equipment and infrastructure.

Benefits of using F10 Super Concentrate Disinfectant:
Apart from the superior safety aspect, other benefits of using F10 Super Concentrate Disinfectant include:
- Total spectrum of kill – bactericidal, virucidal, fungicidal, sporicidal, tuberculocidal. While many products claim to kill “everything instantly”, the reality is quite different. F10SC Disinfectant is a genuine high performance disinfectant, that targets and kills all of the above groups of microbes.
- The rapid speed of kill – 30 secs Gram +ve bacteria and 60 secs Gram -ve bacteria at a 1:500 dilution. This rapid kill means a quick spray and wipe with F10SC disinfectant is actually killing off pathogens like Staphylococcus and E.coli.
- Unique chemical compound based on biguanide/quaternary ammonium actives combination - less chance of resistance build up than with a single active ingredient.
- Cost effective - usage cost varies from 13c to 54c per diluted litre depending on the concentration used (generally 40% of the cost of Virkon). F10SC Disinfectant is also considerably less expensive than other products that share similar ingredients, due to F10SC’s far greater dilution rate.
- Non-corrosive, non-toxic, non-tainting, non-irritating, totally safe to handle and not hazardous.
Biodegradable and given an EU Ecological rating of "zero hazards" (suitable for septic systems too) - Diluted F10SC Disinfectant in a closed container, such as a spray bottle, remains active for up to 1 year – no need for weekly replacement of made up solution
- Highly effective at low concentrations
Rinse off is not required after use - just apply and leave to dry - Proven in a wide range of different pharmaceutical, SPF, agricultural, food processing and laboratory applications
F10SC Super Concentrate Disinfectant is ideal as either a permanent single disinfectant or as one of two disinfectants used on a rotation basis, the latter giving customers the option of replacing the more hazardous/corrosive/expensive of their current products.
