Why do WHO recommend alcohol based sanitisers over non-alcohol based sanitisers?
Alcohol above 70% concentration will kill Coronavirus on the skin and so provides a simple yardstick to avoid fake or poor quality hand sanitising products entering the market. XtraProtect has however not only been lab tested to kill Coronovirus, other viruses and bacteria but has many advantages over alcohol based products, including:
- Flammability – alchol based products are flammable whereas XtraProtct is safe to transport and store with no special conditions. This is particularly important for certain industries including transport, educational, manufacturing, care home and the prison service.
- Safe and effective on surfaces and the skin – XtraProtect has been tested and can be used safely on both surfaces and the skin (wheras alchol dries the skin and can harm surfaces).
- Ongoing Protection: XtraProtect is formulated to keep on acting and provide ongoing surface protection for several days even when dry, whereas alcohol is effective only at the time of application.
- Religious/Cultural Standards – alcohol based products cannot be used by Muslim and certain other religious communities.
