about clean.
Green Klean® Chlorinated Disinfecting Tablets drop into tap water to create a multipurpose, hospital-grade HOCl disinfecting solution — kills C. auris in 2 min and C. difficile spores in 4 min, with an HMIS triple-zero safety rating in solution.

Every hallway. Every shift.
From patient rooms to surgical suites — one tablet scales across your entire footprint without Quats, bleach fumes, or PPE drama.
Why hospitals are switching to tablets
Same kill claims. Lower cost. Less plastic. Safer for staff.
EPA Registered Disinfectant
EPA #71847-6-91038. Registered as Disinfectant, Food Sanitizer and Fungicide — one product, three approvals.
HOCl — CDC's Most Effective Disinfectant
Per CDC: "The advantage of HOCl over hypochlorites — it exerts a more prolonged bactericidal effect." Each tablet delivers an exact, consistent dose.
HMIS Triple-Zero in Solution
No PPE drama. No respiratory or skin sensitizers. Safe to use around children, residents and food-prep areas.
240 Gallons in a Box
2-bottle case (240 tablets) replaces dozens of cases of pre-mixed wipes & RTU bottles — cut shipping, storage & plastic waste.
Toilets, bedrails, call buttons.
The high-touch reservoirs where C. diff and C. auris survive for months. Green Klean® HOCl erases them in as little as 3 minutes.
Every flush is an aerosol plume.
The toilet is the reservoir most hospitals miss.
University of Colorado Boulder researchers used high-powered lasers to capture the invisible — a single flush ejects thousands of droplets up to 5 feet into the air in under 8 seconds, carrying C. difficile, C. auris, norovirus and other hardy pathogens onto every surface in the room. For hospitals, long-term care, and nursing homes, this isn't theoretical — it's the mechanism behind countless HAIs and outbreak clusters.

Daily Toilet Disinfection = Room Turnover Protocol
Break the C. diff spore lifecycle before it can seed the next flush cluster.
Step 1 · Daily
Drop 2 tablets in every toilet bowl
- Each tablet weighs 6.55 g — zero measuring, zero training
- Tablets fizz & dissolve, releasing HOCl (hypochlorous acid)
- Neutral pH — penetrates cell walls, doesn't repel pathogens
- Brush bowl, let dwell 4 minutes for C. diff, flush before use
Step 2 · Compounding
Daily repetition breaks the spore cycle
- C. diff spores cannot re-colonize bowl water between daily treatments
- Eliminates the "persistent bowl contamination" documented in PubMed 29651169
- Protects room turnover — patient rooms, nursing home bathrooms, public restrooms
- Safe for staff — no quats, no PAA, no concentrated bleach exposure
HOCl outperforms what most hospitals use today
Most facilities are still on quats (Virex 256, Diversey Crew) or hydrogen-peroxide products (Oxivir TB, Oxycide) — here's why NaDCC-based HOCl is the upgrade.
What Quats Do
Bind to microfiber & become useless
- • Absorbed into the cloth, not transferred to the surface (Boyce, 2016)
- • Designated asthmagens (AOEC exposure code 322.321)
- • Linked to reproductive toxicity in published mouse studies
- • Drive antimicrobial resistance — quat-resistant microbes cross-resist antibiotics
What Bleach / HP Do
Risky, unstable, worker-hazardous
- • Bleach expires in 6–12 months (often already degraded on shelf)
- • Oxivir TB NOT effective vs. C. diff (hospitals stock bleach anyway)
- • PAA (peracetic acid) triggered NIOSH worker-safety investigations
- • One major U.S. hospital banned staff from handling PAA entirely
What Green Klean® Does
Neutral-pH HOCl — safe, stable, lethal to pathogens
- • Most powerful oxidant in the chlorine family — more than bleach
- • No sticky residue, no microfiber binding — 100% transfers to surface
- • Cited in CDC 2008 Guideline for Disinfection & Sterilization in Healthcare Facilities
- • Also food-grade — no rinse required in food-service areas
90%
Less of everything
Stop shipping water. Start shipping tablets.
One tablet = one quart of ready-to-use disinfectant. Switching from liquid bleach / quat jugs to Green Klean® NaDCC tablets slashes shipping costs, CO₂, plastic, cardboard, pallet, and fuel consumption by approximately 90% — a measurable sustainability win your ESG team will love.

The hidden cost of Quats
Quaternary ammonium compounds (Quats) — the active ingredient in most disposable disinfecting wipes — have been linked to respiratory irritation, skin sensitization, potential endocrine disruption, and contribute to antimicrobial resistance. Green Klean® tablets generate HOCl from a chlorine donor — the same disinfectant your immune system already produces. No quats. No bleach. No PPE drama.
Sources: NIOSH, OSHA, peer-reviewed literature on Quat-exposed healthcare workers — full reading list on the GoGreenKlean resource page.
Spray. Wait. Done.
HOCl is the same disinfectant your immune system already makes. Safe on hands, safe on patients, safe in enclosed rooms — and EPA-registered against the pathogens that matter.
