Alcohol-free Antimicrobial Surface Spray (Refill)
Description
Nilaqua Surface Spray is a water-based, alcohol-free antimicrobial surface disinfectant supplied as a 5 Litre refill bottle intended for topping up smaller spray bottles or dispenser systems. Marketed as food-safe, non-tainting, vegan friendly and cruelty-free, the formulation is promoted to rapidly kill a broad spectrum of pathogens and to provide persistent residual activity on treated surfaces.
Bnefits
Alcohol-free and non-flammable — suitable for food preparation surfaces (non-tainting).
Rapid broad-spectrum activity (manufacturer/retailer claims: high log reduction of bacteria/viruses within short contact times).
Advertised residual surface protection (retailer/manufacturer test claims up to 30 days under test conditions).
Vegan friendly and cruelty-free; manufactured in the UK.
5 L refill reduces single-use plastic compared with multiple 500 ml bottles.
Indications
Routine disinfection of hard surfaces in healthcare, catering, retail and commercial environments.
Food preparation and kitchen surfaces where non-tainting disinfectants are required.
High-touch areas requiring frequent disinfection and residual protection.
Suitable where alcohol-free, non-flammable disinfectants are preferred.
Composition
Active ingredients commonly reported in supplier/IFU listings: Didecyl Dimethyl Ammonium Chloride (a quaternary ammonium compound) and Benzalkonium Chloride (QAC).
Water-based vehicle with film-forming/excipient agents intended to deliver residual activity (full INCI/IFU available from manufacturer/distributor).
Refill smaller spray bottles or use with compatible dispensing equipment.
Apply to clean surface and ensure recommended contact time is achieved (follow manufacturer IFU/test data for specific organisms).
On food contact surfaces, follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding rinse/no-rinse procedures where applicable.
Observe standard precautions: avoid ingestion, avoid eye contact, keep out of reach of children.
Contraindications
Not for internal or topical human use — intended for hard-surface disinfection only.
Do not use on materials/surfaces incompatible with quaternary ammonium compounds unless validated by the manufacturer.
Avoid use where non-rinsed residues are unacceptable unless following the manufacturer's food-surface guidance.
Adverse Effects
Eye and skin irritation possible on direct contact — follow SDS precautions and use PPE where appropriate.
Allergic reactions possible in sensitive individuals.
Possible surface film buildup if overapplied; follow dilution/application guidance in IFU.
Storage Conditions
Store in original, tightly closed container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Avoid freezing and excessive heat; follow any temperature guidance printed on the product packaging or IFU.
Keep out of reach of children.
Duration
Single application provides immediate disinfection; manufacturer/retailer claim of persistent residual activity (test reports cited of up to 30 days under laboratory conditions) \u2014 effectiveness in real-world conditions will vary with wear, cleaning and recontamination.
Onset
Rapid: supplier/manufacturer listings report bactericidal/virucidal activity within short contact times (examples: bacterial kill in 30 seconds; see IFU/SDS for organism-specific contact times).
