FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What Makes ECOM special?
ECOM is the revolutionary patented spatial disinfectant that harnesses the power of CLO2. In compliance with safety regulations by international authority, the World Health Organization (WHO) as well as the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), our range of ECOM products have been clinically proven to kill germs, bacteria, viruses and fungi. ECOM products are selectively tested with over 130 test reports.
How does Chlorine Dioxide work in ECOM products?
For years, chlorine dioxide has been universally recognized for its disinfectant properties and antibacterial potency. In appropriate and controlled amounts, it can effectively eliminate harmful bacteria and diminish risk of infections from airborne germs. Chlorine dioxide exists as a gas in normal room temperature. Using the oxidizing action of intramolecular oxygen, chlorine dioxide can effectively oxidize proteins that make up a target virus or bacterium. Also, an efficient deodorizer, chlorine dioxide has the power to oxidize substances that cause foul odours. Since proteins of allergens – substances that cause allergies – can also be oxidized, to date, ongoing research and clinical studies are being conducted to investigate the effective use of chlorine dioxide gas as a pollen countermeasure in recent years.
