Faced with the sector's new challenge… guaranteed disinfection, Instaquim has developed SANITEX.
SANITEX is a highly concentrated formula based on quaternary ammonium.
SANITEX, in contact with the linen for the required time, provides a high degree of sanitisation of the linen.
As it is a neutral, non-oxidising product, SANITEX can be used on any type of fabric. The recommended dose is 4 g of SANITEX per kilo of dry linen.
It is used in the penultimate rinse of the wash programme.
What SANITEX is
SANITEX is a concentrated product for laundry hygiene in professional washing. Its formula is based on quaternary ammonium (didecyldimethylammonium chloride), which provides cleaning, deodorisation and hygiene for the laundry. Because it is neutral and non-oxidising, it is gentle on fabrics and can be used on all types of textiles.
How to use it
- Dose: 4 g per kg of dry laundry.
- When: in the penultimate rinse of the wash programme.
- Contact time: a recommended minimum of 5 minutes.
- Pack sizes: 10 kg, 20 kg and 4 x 5 kg containers.
The most practical approach is to build it into the programme with an automatic dosing system, so that the dose and the moment of application are always the same and staff do not have to handle the product at every wash.
Handling precautions
SANITEX is a concentrated product that causes severe skin burns and serious eye damage, and it is very toxic to aquatic life. It must be handled with protective gloves, clothing and eye protection; avoid release to the environment, collect any spillage and do not mix it with other chemical products.
Laundry hygiene is a complete process
A hygiene product delivers its best results within a well-organised process:
- Keep dirty and clean laundry separate at all times, including during transport and storage.
- Do not leave damp laundry inside the washing machine once the programme has finished.
- Keep machines, trolleys and the areas where laundry is folded and stored clean.
- Check regularly that the automatic dosing system is delivering the programmed amount.
If you would like to add SANITEX to your wash programmes, our technical team can help you define the best point of application on each machine.
