A note on claims

EcoloxTech generators are regulated by the EPA as devices, are not registered disinfectants, and we make no efficacy claims for them or for the solution they produce. The only EcoloxTech product with disinfection claims is HOCl-AS200 (EPA Reg. No. 101112-1), used according to its label. What applies where is set out on our regulations page and in staying compliant with HOCl. Research referred to describes published studies under their own test conditions and is not a claim for any product.

Food Safety Specialist Francine L. Shaw sat down with Morten Larsen, CEO & Founder of EcoloxTech to discuss the use of Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) in restaurants and food service.

Why is it so important for restaurants and other food businesses to be aware of – and use – HOCI as a disinfectant and sanitizer?

Well, as you know, restaurants and other food brands must prioritize food safety every day, with every shift. Even during the busiest times, staff members must work diligently to keep foods – and guests – safer. Each year, 48 million people get sick and 3,000 die from foodborne illness in the United States, yet these food safety breaches are 100-percent preventable.
