How does the SmartTouch Sanitizing® and Odor Eliminator System differ from typical sanitizing? Our system eliminates labor-intensive hand wiping and rinsing typically required with other methods. Our system can sanitize locations such as daycare centers, classrooms, offices, gyms, locker rooms, hotel rooms, kitchens, cruise ships and entire homes against a multitude of germs, allergens, odors and indoor contaminants in a fraction of the time required using other application systems.

SmartShield®, our long-term antimicrobial surface protectant, is water-based, easy to apply and prevents the growth of odor and stain causing bacteria on all surfaces.

Our safe eco-friendly products include exclusive spray and fog systems and support.

As A Sanitizer

Unlike outdated sanitizing and disinfecting systems which cannot provide long term protection, SmartTouch Sanitizing® and Odor Eliminator System products add an invisible blanket of prevention that continues inhibiting odor and stain causing bacteria, mold, mildew and fungus afterwards.*  SmartTouch Sanitizing® is an EPA registered hospital disinfectant that is applied without the need for wiping and rinsing.  Users of the SmartTouch Sanitizing® Systems are able to eliminate many bacteria and other organisms from indoor areas including homes, schools, offices, restaurants, gyms, buses and most all surfaces.

Certified for food contact surfaces by the National Sanitation Foundation, our products blanket areas with tiny particles that dry quickly. These tiny particles penetrate all areas, providing complete and effective coverage.

If you employ a cleaning staff and would like to decrease the labor, look no further. SmartTouch Sanitizing® Systems is the single source for application equipment solutions that are people, pet and planet friendly.

Concerned with mold, staph, MRSA and other harmful bacteria?  Our system will allow you to sanitize surfaces at a home, school, gym, or daycare facility.  By increasing the effectiveness of the application, we eliminate cross-contamination problems.  This process is faster and easier than with manual hand spray and wipe methods. 

As An Odor Elimination System

As the SmartTouch Sanitizing® System blankets surfaces, the formula oxides odors at their source. We DO NOT use masking agents, which allow odors to return.  We also do not use perfumes, which may contain harmful chemicals. Scents and fragrances can contain VOC’s, which can be harmful or trigger allergies and asthma. In fact, when compared to standard cleaning procedures alone, our products can reduce indoor allergens by at least 50%.

Keep in mind, the deodorizing process requires surfaces to dry completely in order to achieve maximum effectiveness. Therefore, areas requiring deep deodorizing may take from 24-48 hours for maximum freshness.  Examples of such areas are unsealed basement floors, or products like carpets, carpet padding and other similar materials.  Our sanitizing products safely eliminates odors in all indoor areas caused by dog urine, cat urine, smoking and cooking.

The following are important questions regarding having a Smart Touch Sanitizing® Systems Authorized Service Company perform the work:

Do I need to prepare anything before the technician arrives? (Click on Question for Answer)

You will need to be prepare to be out of the indoor treatment area.  This includes taking pets, especially birds, out of the area.  While the disinfectant is working, it could be an irritant.  In addition, some contaminates may become airborne and thy are not safe to breathe.  The cleaner the area to be sprayed is, the more effective and lasting the application will be.  Clean area prior if possible.  We offer these cleaning services upon request if you cannot do it yourself.  Relocate animals and do not reenter the area for 2 hours so the application can take full effect.

How long will the treatment process take? (Click on Question for Answer)

The process takes about 60 minutes for an area of 2,000 square feet, longer for larger areas.

Is there anything I need to do after the technician leaves? (Click on Question for Answer)

You need to do nothing once the process is complete.  Just let everything dry on its own, as the oxidation process takes place.  Initially, it takes just a few minutes to dry.  The only exception is if there is any residue left on glass, mirrors, countertops, or other areas.  In that case, after 24 hours, just wipe off the excess with a microfiber cloth.

Will the Smart Touch Sanitizing® System treatment prevent everyone from getting sick? (Click on Question for Answer)

The treatment will sanitize and deodorize all surfaces.  Since some illnesses, such as the flu or common cold, can be transmitted through personal contact or through the air we breathe, we cannot prevent everyone from acquiring all illnesses.

How often do I need to have my home sanitized/deodorized? (Click on Question for Answer)

That depends on the circumstances.  As far as deodorizing, there may be occasions when smoke, pet odors or cooking odors become an issue and you want them treated.  Sanitizing, on the other hand, we highly recommend this service at least twice per year, late fall and in the spring.  You may also feel that it is necessary to sanitize after parties and/or social gatherings.  We highly recommend treatment if someone in the house becomes ill.  Doing so will help prevent further cross-contamination.  While quarterly treatments provide good control in reducing germs, allergens, and odors, monthly sanitizing is best.  We have custom application programs designed for cost efficiency.

Is it necessary to have my entire place treated when only my basement smells musty? (Click on Question for Answer)

No, full house treatment is not necessary, but we highly recommend you have the entire house treated because the contaminants causing the musty odors can travel throughout the indoor areas via the ventilation system.

Is there anything on which the disinfectant should not be sprayed? (Click on Question for Answer)

The disinfectant is safe for all colorfast fabrics and carpeting and all hard surfaces, including hardwood.  Items such as bathroom area rugs, throw rugs, silk and cotton articles should be treated for color fastness or be removed or covered prior to treatment.

How long does the treatment last? (Click on Question for Answer)

Test results show the disinfectant provides sanitization on carpets for 30 days and on hard surfaces, where contact takes place, for 24 hours.  The addition of SmartShield XLC™ extended control surface protectant will provide antimicrobial protection against stain and odor causing bacteria, mold, mildew and fungus for 90+ days.

Anything else I should be aware of? (Click on Question for Answer)

Areas requiring deep deodorizing like unsealed basement floors or carpets, carpet padding or similar materials may take from 24-48 hours to fully dry and reach maximum effectiveness and complete odor removal.
