Discover the science behind microbial cleaners and how they act as a sustainable cleaning solution that support a more balanced, healthier microbiome.
Effective performance with sustainability in mind
We share the world with bacteria. And as it turns out, some of those bacteria are beneficial to our microbiome – a combination of living microorganisms inside our homes, and even in the human body.
By killing 99.9% of bacteria, we are inhibiting microbes from coexisting with us harmoniously in our microbiome and potentially increasing the risk of health problems. Rather than remove these beneficial bacteria through over-sanitization, we can join forces with them to keep our environments healthy, clean and safe – the way nature intended.
Not only are these microbial cleaners safe for home cleaning, they also maintain powerful performance that lives on. The microbes in these cleaners target tough residues and stains left behind and tackle hidden dirt and grime.
The microbes extend various cleaning applications for days across a variety of surfaces, and effectively control unwanted bacteria that produce stains and bad odors long after they've been applied. Compared to others on the shelf, microbial cleaners offer the tough performance consumers desire while meeting sustainable and clean label standards. At Univar Solutions, we can help you understand how to bring microbial formulations into your cleaning products for the modern-day consumer.
Now is the time to let nature in with sustainable products that support a more balanced and healthier microbiome.
Watch our video above to explore what happens behind the science and discover how microbes provide powerful solutions for homecare and industrial cleaning applications.
