New Technology & Developments

 OxyclaveThe OXYclave™ range of eco-friendly cold sterilizers will be launched in South Africa soon.

OXYclave™ was developed as a collaborative effort between Dr. Ronel Van Rooyen of Mycophiles Spawn Laboratories and Piet Kruger of Convertech.

OXYclave™ is a totally chlorine free (TCF), fully biodegradable powdered formulation that, upon apllication, is dissolved in water where it remains active in the presence of organic material for up to 24 hours and is sporocidal even at low temperatures without leaving any harmful chemical residues.

Potential applications for OXYclave™ are varied and include soil/substrate sterilization, bio-film removal, clean-in-place (CIP) applications, water treatment and sterilization of non-autoclaveable instruments just to mention a few.
