HALAMID® in Healthcare & Industry

If you are considering using Halamid® to disinfect residential care homes, clinics and hospitals, you should know that it is effective against all major problematic pathogens including MRSA, Legionella, Coronavirus (SARS), HIV and Hepatitis virus.

Surfaces, equipment and air conditioning systems in public areas such as swimming pools, hospitals, medical centers, and residential care homes are potential risk carriers and require a serious regular disinfection. Halamid® is meeting these requirements:

Halamid® is excellent and efficacious for general disinfection; it is safe as it does not harm equipment nor surfaces; it also avoids the development of resistant strains that could appear when employing the wrong disinfectant.

Listeria, salmonella, E. coli, and many other bacteria are a major concern in the food processing and beverage industry. Halamid® can overcome effectively and rapidly those microorganisms. Halamid® is the choice #1 as far as daily disinfection in food & beverage industry Is concerned. Indeed, it does not induce bacterial resistance and can be used all year long without rotation and is not remanant.

The bacterium Legionella pneumophila can cause a disease also known as legionnaire’s disease, a serious pulmonary infection. It proliferates in water systems when temperature is between 20 and 45ºC. Cooling towers and any other equipment with circulating or stagnant water, including air conditioning and whirl pool systems can easily be contaminated if strict flush and disinfectant procedures are not adhered to. The public needs to be protected from exposure to legionella.

Halamid® is also used in for example ion exchange resins or greenhouses. Its oxidizing properties play also a role in restoring old book prints, in deodorization applications, in preserving water for cut flowers, in analytical chemistry, etc.
