Quatromyicide V has been formulated to aid in the reduction of cross-contamination on treated surfaces not only in hospitals, but in schools, institutions and industries where disinfection, sanitization and deodorization is of prime importance. It deodorizes those areas, which generally are hard to keep fresh smelling, such as garbage storage areas, empty garbage bins and cans, pet areas and any other areas which are prone to odours caused by microorganisms. Quatromyicide V can also be used as a sanitizer on food contact surfaces and processing equipment at 200 ppm active quaternary without potable water rinse.
