Effectivebiocide

Noresidue

It is an extremely effective biocide which continues to keep up with increasingly high standards of environmental legislation and disinfection.

One of the major advantages of using peracetic acid is that at low levels it leaves no residue and rinses away completely.

VersatileLow

corrosion

Due to its low-impact, yet powerful cleansing properties, peracetic acid can be applied across many industries including manufacture, agrochemical, dairy and water treatment

Unlike some disinfectants which can damage metal surfaces, causing corrosion, PAA has a much lower rate of corrosion than other similar products.
