Introducing Alcavis 50 High Level Disinfectant

Alcavis 50 is a high-level disinfectant designed for dialysis centers and home care.

How Alcavis 50 Works

Structurally similar to water: As the active ingredient, hypochlorous acid is molecularly similar to water in terms of size, electrical charge and structure.

Fast-acting: During the disinfection process, bacterial membranes easily absorb this compound, which then deactivates and kills them in two minutes’ time. This fast-acting disinfectant additionally gets rid of fungi, spores, mycobacteria and viruses.
