In an era where healthcare demands safer, greener, and more effective infection control, the NHS is rethinking its reliance on traditional disinfectants. Products like chlorine, bleach, and alcohol-based solutions—once seen as the gold standard—now present serious limitations: corrosiveness, health hazards, poor environmental performance, and inconsistent pathogen control.
That’s why NHS Trusts are turning to SANI‑99™: a next-generation, alcohol-free, chlorine-free disinfectant that offers Log 7 kill-rate performance, unmatched environmental credentials, and ease of use across all healthcare environments.
Now fully available via NHS Supply Chain, SANI‑99™ marks a significant advancement in infection prevention for the NHS.
Now Available to Order on NHS Supply Chain
The complete SANI‑99™ Disinfectant Range is live and ready to order:
- SANI‑99™ Starter Pack – Bottle for Life + sachets
- SANI‑99™ 25 Sachet Pack – reduced waste, big value
- SANI‑99™ Drain Cleaner Sachet – powerful drain hygiene
- SANI‑99™ Pre-filled Solutions – grab-and-go convenience
All products are supported with full EN certifications, MSDS documentation, and verified carbon reporting to meet NHS Green Plan and PPN 06/21 compliance standards.
A Scientific Breakthrough in Infection Control
SANI‑99™ is clinically formulated to deliver a 99.99995% kill rate (Log 7)—outperforming standard disinfectants that typically offer Log 3 or Log 4 efficacy. It is independently tested and certified to:
- EN 17126 (C. difficile spores)
- EN 14476 (viruses including Norovirus and SARS‑CoV‑2)
- EN 13727 & EN 1276 (bacteria including MRSA, E. coli, Pseudomonas)
- EN 1500 (hand hygiene)
This powerful, broad-spectrum activity means fewer organisms remain after cleaning—just 50 per square metre, compared to 10,000+ with traditional 99.9% effective solutions.
Why NHS Trusts Are Moving Away from Chlorine and Alcohol
Despite their widespread use, chlorine-based disinfectants and alcohol rubs bring serious drawbacks:
| Challenge | Traditional Disinfectants |
| Corrosive to surfaces and medical equipment | Yes |
| Short shelf life after dilution (24h) | Yes |
| Strong odour, irritant to staff and patients | Yes |
| Require PPE and hazardous waste handling | Yes |
| Contribute high CO₂ emissions and toxic residues | Yes |
| Flammable (alcohol-based rubs) | Yes |
These legacy products often fail to meet the NHS’s modern requirements for safety, sustainability, and operational efficiency.
Why SANI‑99™ Is the Future of NHS Disinfection
Clinical-Grade Efficacy
- Log 7 performance kills pathogens more effectively and faster than most alternatives.
- Eliminates bacteria, viruses, spores, mould, and fungi—ideal for outbreak control and routine hygiene.
Alcohol-, Chlorine- & Fragrance-Free
- Safe for frequent use across wards, ICUs, care homes, and GP practices.
- No VOCs, no respiratory irritation, no corrosion—better for staff and patient wellbeing.
No PPE Required
- Non-toxic, non-corrosive, and safe to use without gloves or masks.
- Suitable for spray, mop, fogging, and electrostatic applications.
Hand Hygiene Certified
- EN 1500 certified for hygienic hand rub use—a rare distinction among disinfectants.
- Simplifies product stock by covering both surfaces and skin safely.
Extended Shelf Life
- 180-day stability once diluted — compared to 1-day shelf life for hypochlorite.
- Reduces waste and stock spoilage.
SANI‑99™ vs Traditional Disinfectants: The Evidence-Based Choice
| Category | Traditional Disinfectants | SANI‑99™ |
| Kill Rate | Log 3–4 (99.9–99.99%) | Log 7 (99.99995%) – validated for NHS pathogens |
| Effective Against Spores | Often ineffective against C. difficile | Yes – EN 17126 certified |
| Effective Against Norovirus | Limited – not EN 14476 certified | Yes – EN 14476 certified |
| Shelf Life (Mixed) | ~24 hours | Up to 180 days |
| PPE Required | Yes – irritant/corrosive | No – non-toxic, non-irritant |
| Surface Corrosiveness | Yes – damages beds, metal & plastics | None – safe on all surfaces |
| Odour and VOCs | Strong bleach or chemical odour | Fragrance-free, no VOCs |
| Application Versatility | Surface only; often incompatible with foggers | Surface, drains, fogging, and hand use |
| Environmental Impact (CO₂e) | Up to 2,000g per litre | Just 3g per litre |
| Biodegradable | No – residual chlorine harmful to water systems | Yes – 100% biodegradable |
| Disposal Requirements | Hazardous waste streams | General waste – no COSHH hazard |
This side-by-side analysis reinforces why SANI‑99™ is the smarter, safer, and more sustainable choice for modern NHS estates.
