Cleaner and Sanitizer for Food Contact Surfaces and Fruit/Vegetable Wash

The best, safest and most versatile bactericide on the market today.

Triple Action!
PRO-SAN® has three different functional properties of cleaning, sanitizing and chelating. One product does the work of three.

Fast Action & Broad Spectrum
PRO-SAN® kills 100 million bacteria in 30* seconds. Effective against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria with 99.999% efficiency .

*(Evaluated by the AOAC suspension tests against Staph. aureus and E. coIl).

Biodegradable and safe food grade ingredients
The food grade ingredients and emulsifying agent of PRO-SAN® do not produce carcinogenic by-products or free radicals.

Leaves fruit and vegetables naturally clean without residue
PRO-SAN® treated fruits and vegetables maintain their original taste and flavor. PRO-SAN® enhances their natural color. PRO-SAN® is not soap and does not leave residue on fruits and vegetables that can ruin the taste.

Comparison of Microbicidal Efficiency of PRO-SAN® and HYPOCHLORITE (Bleach) (99.999% Kill in 30 Seconds)

Tested using the in-vitro suspension test (essentially by the A.O.A.C. Germicidal and Detergent Sanitizer Test as modified by Lopes, 1986 0. Dairy Science, 69:2791-96). CHLOROX® was used as the source of available Cl2 (hypo chlorite). The test interprets lethal activity greater than 99.999% as PASS and less than 99.999% as FAIL.

Compare PRO-SAN® with Other Sanitizers Used on Fruits and Vegetables!

Crystal Clear PRO-SAN® is colorless, odorless, biodegradable & free of animal products. PRO-SAN® is a product of patented technology.

PRO-SAN® is so safe that the US EPA has approved it as a no rinse sanitizer, which means it does not require potable water rinse after using on hard surfaces and draining the surface air dry.
