The Clorox® Total 360™ Electrostatic Sprayer, paired with trusted Clorox® disinfecting and sanitising solutions, provides superior surface coverage so commercial facilities can do much more, much faster, for much less.
The Clorox® Total 360™ System is an innovative surface treatment system that combines proven electrostatic technology with trusted Clorox® products to quickly and easily provide superior coverage, in even the hardest-to reach places.
Using patented electrostatic technology to optimise product delivery, the Clorox® Total 360™ System is a cost-effective solution for efficient, comprehensive surface treatment that is designed to help keep facilities healthier while saving them time, money and labour.
From absenteeism and facility closures to negative press, illnesses and infections can have serious impacts on public and commercial settings – and not just during flu season. Each year, productivity losses linked to absenteeism cost employers billion of dollars.
Schools are often among the hardest hit with nearly 60 million school days lost each year due to cold and flu alone.
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria like methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is also a cause of concern in settings like athletic facilities, where skin-to-skin contact and shared equipment or supplies may increase the risk of MRSA infections.
Since illness-causing germs can survive on surfaces for extended periods, facilities need to be confident that their cleaning and disinfecting protocols can get the job done.
“The professional cleaning industry plays a vital role in helping protect public health by preventing the spread of illnesses and infections in public spaces,” said Kyra Zeroll, Director – Marketing, Clorox Professional Products Company. “Backed by the power of Clorox® disinfecting and sanitising solutions, the Clorox® Total 360™ System makes a challenging, but critical task more efficient for end-users, while providing complete coverage that ultimately helps keep facilities healthier.”
The Clorox® Total 360™ System is able to cover up to 1,700-square meters per hour with one of two Clorox® products, providing superior surface coverage up to four times faster and using up to 65 percent less product, compared with conventional trigger sprays per square meter.
How Electrostatic Technology Enables Superior Coverage
The Clorox® Total 360™ System utilises innovative electrostatic spray technology to allow Clorox® disinfecting and sanitising solutions to reach surfaces outside the line of sight, covering what conventional trigger sprays may miss, including the sides, underside and backside of surfaces.
It works by using an electrode to introduce an attractive charge to the disinfecting or sanitising product and atomises the solution, using an air compressor to generate a quiet, but powerful liquid flow.
“Because the solution’s particles are electrostatically charged, they are attracted to surfaces with a force stronger than gravity, allowing the solution to reach and uniformly coat even hard-to-reach surfaces,” explained Dr. Ken Giles, a professor in the UC Davis Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering and a leader in electrostatic spraying technology. “Because the charged particles are attracted to surfaces, they clear the air much faster than other delivery systems like foggers, which leave the air saturated until gravitationally or forcibly cleared, allowing occupants to safely re-enter a room much sooner.”
“Electrostatic sprayers are powerful tools to optimise application, but are just one piece of the puzzle,” said Dr. Giles. “What makes the Clorox® Total 360™ System exciting is that it provides proven disinfecting and sanitising solutions delivered through electrostatic spray technology.”
Specially Formulated Products to Tackle the Toughest Facility Challenges
The Clorox® Total 360™ Electrostatic Sprayer is ideally used with the Clorox Commercial Solutions® Clorox® Total 360™ Disinfectant Cleaner, which kills 19 illness-causing organisms in two minutes or less. The ready-to-use, one-step disinfectant cleaner eliminates odours and kills outbreak-causing viruses like influenza, rhinovirus and norovirus and bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA and Vancomycin Resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE). The non-bleach-based formula is specifically designed for broad surface compatibility, making it ideal for use on a wide variety of surfaces found in schools, athletic facilities, offices and more.
The Clorox® Total 360™ System has been extensively tested for efficacy, residue and worker protection. “Safety, efficacy and aesthetic concerns like surface compatibility and residue are always key considerations in our product development,” said Brian Thompson, Department Manager – Research and Development, Clorox Professional Products Company. “The Clorox® Total 360™ System was specifically designed to ensure the electrostatic sprayer and products perform together to enhance surface coverage and reduce the time it takes to treat surfaces in schools, athletic facilities, offices, food service settings and more.”
