Description
Clinell Universal Disinfectant Spray 500ml is an alcohol-free, near-neutral pH surface detergent and disinfectant spray for routine cleaning and disinfection of hard surfaces and non-invasive medical devices. It contains a patented combination of quaternary ammonium compounds and a polymeric biguanide to provide broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, killing at least 99.99–99.999% of common healthcare pathogens from 10 seconds contact time, including bacteria, viruses (such as coronavirus), fungi and mycobacteria. Supplied in a convenient 500 ml trigger spray bottle, it is designed to reach large and hard-to-access areas and replaces the need for multiple separate surface cleaners and disinfectants.
Bnefits
Cleans and disinfects in a single step, simplifying routine decontamination workflows.
Broad-spectrum efficacy, killing at least 99.99–99.999% of bacteria, enveloped and many non-enveloped viruses, fungi and mycobacteria.
Effective from as little as 10 seconds contact time for many organisms, with 30–60 seconds typically recommended for full virucidal activity including coronavirus.
Alcohol-free formulation reduces the risk of drying or damaging sensitive materials and is suitable where alcohol is contraindicated.
Near-neutral pH and excellent material compatibility, safe on a wide range of plastics, metals, rubbers and other common healthcare surfaces.
Patented mix of multiple biocides with different mechanisms of action to minimise the risk of antimicrobial resistance developing.
Designed as a universal product for both general hard surfaces and non-invasive medical devices, reducing the need for multiple surface products.
Trigger spray format makes it ideal for large areas and hard-to-reach or complex surfaces such as keyboards, trolleys, bed frames and door handles.
Residual activity on surfaces for extended protection (often cited up to 72 hours in marketing claims, depending on conditions).
Dermatologically tested and marketed as skin-friendly when used as directed on intact skin contact areas, while still not intended as a hand disinfectant.
Indications
Routine cleaning and disinfection of non-invasive medical devices (e.g. blood pressure cuffs, monitors, ultrasound probes used non-invasively, stethoscopes) according to local infection-prevention policies.
Dermatologically tested for skin compatibility under normal use conditions.
Alcohol Free formulation compliant with many institutional policies requiring non Alcohol Based surface disinfectants in specific areas.
Alcohol Free formulation compliant with many institutional policies requiring non Alcohol Based surface disinfectants in specific areas.
Surface Disinfectant Spray
Disinfection and cleaning of hard, non-porous environmental surfaces in clinical and dental settings, including couches, trolleys, worktops and treatment chairs.
Decontamination of frequently touched surfaces such as door handles, light switches, bed rails, keyboards, telephones and hand rails.
Use in aesthetic, dermatology and cosmetic clinics to disinfect treatment couches, trolleys and other shared equipment between patients.
Surface disinfection in other professional environments such as care homes, ambulances, laboratories and office clinical rooms.
Situations requiring a rapid-acting, ready-to-use, alcohol-free surface disinfectant effective against common healthcare-associated pathogens including MRSA, VRE, norovirus and coronaviruses.
Non-ionic surfactants and detergents to aid soil removal and cleaning.
Chelating and sequestering agents to enhance performance in hard water and on soiled surfaces.
Fragrance and other minor formulation excipients.
Purified water (aqua) as the main carrier (typically >75% of the formulation).
Formulation
Ready-to-use, water-based, alcohol-free surface detergent and disinfectant solution.
Quaternary ammonium and biguanide-based biocidal system with near-neutral pH.
Supplied as a trigger spray for direct application to surfaces or onto a cloth.
Packaging
500 ml plastic bottle with trigger spray nozzle.
Typically supplied as individual bottles and also in trade outer packs / cases (e.g. 12 x 500 ml) for clinics.
Labelled with full instructions for use, safety information, batch number and expiry date.
Usage
Check the product label and local infection-prevention policy before use; wear appropriate personal protective equipment if required.
Ensure the target surface or non-invasive medical device is visibly clean; if heavily soiled, remove gross contamination before disinfection.
To open, pull the trigger slightly and twist the nozzle from the closed position to the spray position as indicated on the nozzle head.
Spray the Clinell Universal solution evenly onto the surface from a short distance, ensuring complete coverage; alternatively spray onto a clean cloth and wipe the surface.
Wipe the surface in an S-shaped pattern from clean to dirty areas, avoiding re-contaminating cleaned sections and changing cloths if they become visibly dirty or dry.
Ensure the surface remains visibly wet for at least the recommended contact time (commonly 1 minute to cover full virucidal claims, although many bacteria are killed from 10 seconds).
Allow the surface to air-dry after the contact time; do not rinse unless specifically directed by local protocol or manufacturer guidance.
Do not mix with other cleaning agents or disinfectants and avoid simultaneous use with anionic detergents which may inactivate quaternary ammonium compounds.
Not intended as a hand or skin disinfectant; avoid deliberate application to broken skin, mucous membranes or eyes.
After use, turn the nozzle back to the closed or off position and store the bottle upright with cap and trigger securely closed.
Contraindications
Not for injection, ingestion or any internal use.
Not intended for direct application to eyes, mucous membranes or broken skin.
Not suitable for sterilising invasive or critical medical devices that require high-level disinfection or sterilisation processes.
Avoid use on surfaces known to be incompatible with water-based quaternary ammonium disinfectants (e.g. certain unsealed or delicate materials) without testing on a small inconspicuous area first.
Do not use in combination with other cleaning or disinfectant chemicals that may react or reduce efficacy, particularly anionic detergents and strong oxidising agents.
Individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to quaternary ammonium compounds or PHMB should avoid direct contact with the wet product.
Adverse Effects
May cause eye irritation if splashed; can result in redness, watering and discomfort.
May cause mild skin irritation or allergic contact dermatitis in sensitised individuals due to PHMB or quaternary ammonium compounds.
Inhalation of mist or spray in poorly ventilated areas may cause transient respiratory irritation or coughing.
Ingestion may cause irritation of the mouth, throat and gastrointestinal tract and should be treated as an exposure requiring medical advice.
Prolonged or repeated contact without appropriate protective measures (e.g. gloves) may increase the risk of irritation or sensitisation.
Storage Conditions
Store in the original, tightly closed container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place.
Keep away from extremes of temperature; do not freeze and avoid prolonged storage above approximately 25–30°C.
Protect from direct sunlight and sources of heat to preserve product stability and efficacy.
Keep out of reach of children and unauthorised persons.
Avoid storing in close proximity to strong oxidising agents or incompatible chemicals.
Do not decant into unlabelled or inappropriate containers; always retain original labelling and batch / expiry information.
Duration
Used as a one-step surface cleaner and disinfectant during each decontamination episode; there is no fixed treatment course. Surfaces should be re-cleaned and disinfected as often as indicated by local infection-control protocols (e.g. between patients and at regular intervals during the day).
Onset
Rapid onset; begins killing many bacteria from around 10 seconds contact time, with full label claims for viruses such as coronaviruses typically achieved within 30\u201360 seconds when the surface is kept wet.
