Building a biological biocide
Aqualution Systems produces stable hypochlorous acid, a natural biocide up to 300 times more effective than bleach
Keeping the body safe from bacteria without using harmful toxic chemicals is a delicate balancing act, but Aqualution Systems has a solution. Established in 2002 by a team of scientists in the pharmaceutical industry, the Scotland-based company manufactures packaged hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a highly effective biocide that can be up to 300 times more effective at killing microorganisms than bleach. Inspired by the human body’s natural defences, its products are made of the same acid produced by the body to fight viruses and bacteria, making them completely safe for people and animals.
