VigorOx® Liquid Sanitizer is a stabilized equilibrium solution of four components: Acetic Acid, Hydrogen Peroxide, Peracetic Acid, and Water. At any point in time, molecules of peracetic acid are being formed as others revert back to hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid.
VigorOx® Liquid Sanitizer is an EPA-registered peroxyacetic acid solution for the food and beverage industry. VigorOx’s no-rinse, non-foaming formula and its ability to sanitize at cold temperatures make it ideally suited for use in circulation (CIP) clean-in-place systems for food processing equipment. VigorOx Liquid Sanitizer is also approved for immersion cleaning of equipment and utensils in food processing and packaging plants and eating establishments.
VigorOx® Liquid Sanitizer is used at low solution concentration to rapidly kill a broad spectrum of microorganisms including gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It is more tolerant than most sanitizers to pH, temperature, water hardness, and organic soils. The decomposition products of VigorOx® solutions are acetic acid, oxygen, and water, which do not harm or pollute the environment. In summary, VigorOx® Liquid Sanitizer is highly effective, economical to use and environmentally acceptable.
