THE SCIENCE BEHIND iHP™
IONIZED HYDROGEN PEROXIDE
Binary Ionization Technology (BIT) Solution, a patented 7.8% Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) solution, is passed through a cold plasma arc and converted into a fine mist known as ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP™). Unlike many other systems, Hydrogen Peroxide is not the efficient kill, instead, the iHP™ contains a high concentration of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), consisting mostly of hydroxyl radicals (OH) as the killing agent. These hydroxyl radicals are one of the most powerful oxidizing agents in nature, and during an iHP™ application it kills pathogens and inactivates viral cells by destroying their proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. This leads to the destruction of cell walls within seconds allowing for the quick decontamination of targeted areas.
The PKT Guarantee
With SteraMist™ iHP™ technology incorporated into our cleaning service programs, we are able to guarantee a high log-6 kill rate within seconds of application. After cleaning to remove dust, soil, debris and any biofilm we then use iHP™ to disinfect all surfaces – including high touch, sensitive equipment, and electronics. The room is safe to enter within minutes after the ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP™) mist has been applied.
