GREENSBORO, N.C.—ESC Brands has released new Zetrisil-based products that are proven to be as effective as alcohol-based sanitizers, with proven persistence of activity without the toxicity and flammability concerns of traditional sanitizers. ESC's Zetrisil-based technologies are a family of proprietary silicon-based virus killing agents that reduce the presence of COVID-19 from the hands, skin surfaces, fabric and clothing in most environments. 

Recent studies completed by the University of Alabama in Huntsville prove that Zetrisil-based products are highly effective and demonstrate persistent activity against the COVID-19 virus.

ESC's FDA- and Health Canada-registered hand sanitizers show an initial 30- and 60-second virus kill rate of 99.90%, with persistence of virus-killing activity for four hours after a single initial application. The company claims its Zetrisil-based hand sanitizer is far safer and more effective than alcohol-based hand sanitizers. Zetrisil stays on the surface of the skin and is proven to kill the COVID-19 virus for four hours per application. 

ESC's pending EPA- and Health Canada-registered surface sanitizer/disinfectant is proven to kill 99.9% of virus particles initially after a single application, with increased persistence kill of 99.99% after 30 days. These kill rates required only a single 10-minute contact time against the COVID-19 virus. ESC is closely working with EPA with the N list registration process for this product. 

ESC's pending EPA- and Health Canada-registered Laundry Complete sanitizer/fabric softener is proven to kill 99.99% of the COVID-19 virus when used as a pre-soak or in the rinse cycle of a conventional clothes washing cycle, with the washed clothes continuing to kill 99.0% of the virus for 200 days after the initial wash.

"These ESC products have completed rigorous testing and have shown that not only are they completely safe for use on mass transit and aircraft, they are less toxic to humans and the environment than traditional sanitizers. The company is in the process of submitting testing data to the EPA and Health Canada. The question for these regulatory agencies is how to address persistency-of-kill claims, particularly given the 200 days protection per application of Laundry Complete. The unique persistence of Zetrisil falls outside of their standard testing protocols, and they are literally developing new protocols for this revolutionary product,"said special projects director Angela McClure, who oversaw the UAH testing. 

The company believes that these three products, when used together, will drastically reduce the spread of COVID-19.
