Our Solutions
- HYPROX® – High-purity hydrogen peroxide for effective, low-residue disinfection of animal housing, equipment, and surfaces. HYPROX® helps break the infection chain, supporting healthier flocks and herds. After use, hydrogen peroxide decomposes into oxygen and water.
- PERACLEAN® – Peracetic acid-based disinfectant for powerful microbial control in livestock premises, including drinking water lines. Highly effective against many viruses and pathogens, PERACLEAN® can be applied to a wide range of equipment, from housing and surfaces to milking plants, water systems and drinking water, and more. PERACLEAN® retains its disinfecting power even at low temperatures, making it particularly useful for outdoor housing systems. After disinfection, peracetic acid decomposes into water, oxygen and acetic acid.
The Evonik Advantage
- Effective and Non-Chlorinated: Our hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid solutions work without chlorine chemistry, so no chlorinated by-products are formed. Peracetic acid controls pathogens in animal husbandry without leaving harmful chemical residues in the treated environment.
- Registrered biocidal Products: Evonik is listed under Article 95 of the EU Biocidal Products Regulation (EU) No. 528/2012 as a supplier of the active substances hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid, and holds EU-wide registrations for its own biocidal products. Registrations are product- and country-specific – see our biocides documentation for the details relevant to your market. Our regulatory team supports you on market access questions.
- Expert Support: Our specialists partner with you to optimize hygiene protocols and water management for maximum results.
