Ecolab® Disinfectant 1 Wipe With Plastic-Free Wipes1
The wipe that performs without the plastic.1
More Coverage.2 Fewer Wipes.3 One-Minute Kill Time.1
Most ready-to-use healthcare disinfectant wipes are made of plastic; this wipe is not. Streamline your daily disinfection process and help reduce single-use plastic with the first EPA registered wipe that combines a 1-minute contact time with a plastic-free wipe.1
The plastic-free wood-pulp-fiber wipe1 is designed to provide advanced surface coverage that helps streamline disinfection.
Help decrease environmental impact, while delivering disinfecting performance.
Address the primary source of the plastic – the wipe!
- Of the total plastic, the wipes comprise 58% in canisters and 94% in bucket refill bags.6
- Each year, plastic wipes circle the globe 58 times from North American Healthcare facilities alone.7
- Disinfectant wipes with high alcohol content typically require a 1-2 minute contact time, but alcohol quickly evaporates, requiring more wipes for effective disinfection.

- Internal tests show that Ecolab's DDBSA-based wipe (6 x 13") provides greater wet surface area coverage compared to the market-leading alcohol-based healthcare disinfectant wipes (7.5 x 15").↵
- Internal tests showed that disinfecting the top of a hospital mattress (35 x 80 x 7"), according to the EPA-registered wet contact time, required an average of 1.25 Ecolab wipes (6 x 13") (1-min contact), whereas the market leader's alcohol-based healthcare disinfectant wipes (7.5 x 15") required an average of 2.25 wipes for their 1-min contact product and 4 wipes for their 2-min contact product. Based on that testing and a 4-week study in an ambulatory surgery center in Minnesota, Ecolab’s wipe may reduce wipe usage up to 33% vs. the same market leader’s 1-min wipe and up to 50% vs. their 2-min wipe. Your results and dry times will vary based on temperature, humidity, air flow, and adherence to product use instructions. Mattress is a hard, non-porous surface.↵
