COLTENE SciCan has announced the Canadian launch of OPTIM 1, a one-step cleaner disinfectant with a 1-minute broad-spectrum contact time. With OPTIM 1 there is no need to compromise between safety and efficacy.
With a 1-minute contact time, OPTIM 1 is one of the fastest and most effective cleaner and disinfectants, according to COLTENE SciCan. It is on the Health Canada list of disinfectants to use against COVID-19 and can deactivate the virus in just 1 minute.*
Powered by a patented hydrogen peroxide-based formula, OPTIM 1 is also safe and gentle for staff, patients and surfaces, the company said. In addition, users can disinfect a larger area with each OPTIM 1 Wipe than they could with competitors’ disinfectant products.[1] Just like our other OPTIM disinfectant product lines, OPTIM 1 does not require any GHS hazard pictograms, signal words or statements; it is everything health care workers have come to expect from OPTIM, just faster and more efficient, the company said.
Effective one-step cleaner
- Study comparing different products’ cleaning capabilities has shown that OPTIM 1 was the only disinfectant capable of successfully removing organic debris in a single application.[2]
Fast broad-spectrum disinfectant
- 1 minute tuberculocidal, bactericidal, virucidal, fungicidal contact time.
- Demonstrated 1-minute virucidal efficacy extends to new and emerging pathogens including the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).*
- Fast contact time ensures compliance, saving users time and money.[3]
Safe for staff and patients
- Non-irritating to skin, eyes and respiratory tract.
- Non-toxic to reproduction, child development and fertility.
- No VOCs (volatile organic compounds).
Environmentally friendly
- Active ingredient, hydrogen peroxide, breaks down into water and oxygen.
- No active residues, reducing environmental impact.
Compatible
- Designed to be compatible with a wide range of materials.[4]
Contact the company at (800) 667-7733 with any questions.
*OPTIM 1 has demonstrated effectiveness against viruses similar to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) on hard non-porous surfaces and non-invasive medical devices, according to COLTENE SciCan. This product can therefore be used against COVID-19 when used in accordance with the directions for use against poliovirus on hard, non-porous surfaces, and non-invasive medical devices, the company said.
