One chemical programme from the waterline to the barn wall.

SPT95™ meets all relevant standards required for use in agriculture, water treatment and disinfection. It is non-toxic, environmentally friendly and breaks down into water and sodium chloride salt.

In animal drinking water it eliminates microbes, and because HOCl is neutrally charged it penetrates the biofilm that builds up in water lines, kills the microorganisms embedded in it and flushes it out.

SPT95™ is tested to EN 17387 against Salmonella enterica, Campylobacter jejuni and E. coli, and to EN 14476 against influenza A H5N1 (avian flu) and H1N1 (swine flu).

Where it's deployed

From the waterline to housing surfaces, at concentrations backed by published data.

Animal Drinking Water
Ensures safe drinking water for animals by eliminating microbes, dosed to around 1 ppm at the point of use.
Water Line Biofilm
Penetrates the biofilm in water lines and pipework, restoring pipework hygiene and functionality.
Surface Disinfection
Used at 675 ppm for surface disinfection. SPT95™ is tested to EN 17387 against Salmonella enterica and Campylobacter jejuni.
Avian & Swine Influenza
Tested to EN 14476 against influenza A H5N1 (avian flu) and H1N1 (swine flu).
Amenity Irrigation
Added to irrigation systems to prevent the spread of pathogens and fungi on golf courses and sports pitches.
Clean Breakdown
Breaks down into water and sodium chloride salt. Non-toxic and environmentally friendly.

How SPT95™ compares

SPT95™ against the chemistries it is most often measured against.

Other HOCl Products
The limitation
Often a mixture of HOCl with sodium, chloride, hypochlorite and stabiliser salts. Typically 500 ppm maximum, 30% maximum purity and a 3 to 6 month maximum shelf life. Stabilising salts can corrode machinery such as fogging and dosing sprayers.
SPT95™
HOCl and water only, customisable up to 32,000 ppm, minimum 95% purity and no corrosivity in use.
Chlorine Dioxide (ClO₂)
The limitation
Slower, with longer contact times. Produces chlorites and chlorates, which are harmful and highly regulated. Pre-mixed solutions are not suitable for long-term storage, and on-site generation relies on precursor chemicals classified as Dangerous Goods.
SPT95™
Fast acting with short contact times. Produces no harmful by-products and is non-toxic. Stable at concentrations up to 32,000 ppm and non-hazardous for transport and storage.
Chlorine & Hypochlorite
The limitation
Barely penetrate the biofilm that shields pathogens. They bring corrosivity, handling hazards, disinfection by-products and fast decay, forcing continuous over-dosing and pH balancing.
SPT95™
Neutrally charged HOCl penetrates biofilm and kills the microorganisms embedded in it. No THMs, HAAs or chlorate. Low corrosivity and pH-agnostic across a wide range, so no pH-correction chemistry is needed.
