Saudi Arabia’s National Food Industries Company (NFIC), which manufactures products under the Luna brand, has become the first company in the Kingdom to use the services of Zoono, the New Zealand-based antimicrobial products manufacturer, to sanitize all its facilities.
The world-renowned surface disinfectant — Zoono Z-71 — developed using nanotechnology, protects any surface for 30 days with a single application.
All critical facilities of the NFIC, including trucks and car cabins, have been disinfected for the next 30 days with the Z-71 to protect staff members from cross infection and contamination.
At a recent event, Shaikh Shakeel M. Ahmed, CEO of MK International (MKI), distributor of Zoono in Saudi Arabia, and member of Roudah Group, presented a memento certifying that the NFIC facility is under the protection of Zoono, to M.A. Baig, quality assurance manager, Luna.
At the event, NFIC officials highlighted that Zoono Z-71 is cost-effective as it is cheaper than routine toxic disinfectants, is food-grade safe, and provides long-lasting hassle-free protection for the facility and workers for 30 days, from any kind of bacteria, molds and viruses, including those responsible for COVID-19, H1N1, SARS, MERS and the Ebola disease.
Zoono’s “physical kill” replaces the need for dangerous poisons, chemicals and alcohol. This method of rupturing the cell means the cell cannot mutate, preventing the development of superbugs. Zoono is colorless, odorless, non-leaching, environmentally safe, non-corrosive and whilst completely gentle for humans and animals, it is deadly for a wide range of bacteria and viruses.
Zoono does not contain harmful chemicals. In fact, liquid Zoono is less toxic than vitamin C and coffee. When it is applied to the surface by spraying, wiping or “fogging,” Zoono leaves behind a mono-molecular layer that permanently bonds to the surface. These molecules are antimicrobial, silane-based polymers that covalently bond to the surface forming a barrier of positively charged microscopic pins.
Zoono products use 98 percent purified, deionized water and an antimicrobial compound. The company uses a quaternary ammonium compound, which are commonly used antibacterial agents found in products such as toothpaste, contact lenses, cosmetics and soaps.
Zoono kills germs by creating a defensive shield of antimicrobial nano-spikes that destroys germs on contact. Because Zoono destroys by puncturing the pathogens, it is efficient and prevents mutation of germs. Rather than poisoning or dehydrating germs, the disinfectant lays down a protective barrier on surfaces that does not allow germs to grow.
