Who are Centrego Ltd?

Centrego Ltd has been producing disinfectant and cleaning solution generators and solutions for over 15 years and is an industry leader in ECA technology and systems. Centrego produces innovative environmentally responsible systems that reduce carbon emissions and environmental impacts for commercial and consumer markets.

Centrego is growing quickly due to demand for enhanced facilities hygiene, and many companies desire to adopt environmentally responsible products that reduce their carbon footprints, reduce plastic use and wastage, reduce transport miles, and reduce dependency on synthetic chemicals. Centrego continually evolves to meet the changing needs of their clients, distributors, industry and legislation.

Eco disinfectant and cleaning solution

ECA (Electrochemically Activated) solutions are more effective at lower concentrations than ordinary bleach and kills up to 99.999% of bacteria, viruses and fungi. It does not use synthetic chemicals and is non-toxic, non-hazardous, hypoallergenic and can be safely discharged to the drain without any negative environmental impact.

ECA solution has many environmental advantages, including on-site generation from naturally sustainable inputs of water and salt, thus significantly reducing carbon emissions and environmental hazards associated with purchased synthetic chemicals. The solutions are safe to use for humans and the environment and leave no residues.

How we produce eco disinfectant and cleaning solution

To make ECA solution, you add salt to water. The machine then uses an electrolysis process that produces the eco-friendly disinfectant and cleaning solution which, will clean surfaces and fabrics and kills up to 99.999% of microorganisms.

The strength of the eca solution can be adjusted depending on the client’s needs. Once produced, the solution can be used on almost any surface to clean and eliminate microorganisms to enhance hygiene and protect assets, staff and customers.

The below images show salt being added to water on a Toucan eco Flow 40 device. Then a spray bottle is filled with ECA solution after it has been made by the machine onsite.

What can ECA solution be used for?

ECA solution can be used for cleaning almost any surface that you require. Walls, floors, furniture, fabric, glass, metal, wood, plastic, etc.

Centrego has found the solution highly effective, not only in the office and the house. But also in vehicles, with pets, on broken skin and to clean windows. It really can be used almost anywhere!

Upon contact, ECA solution will kill 99.99% of bacteria and viruses. Spray it onto almost any material that you wish to disinfect. A microfibre cloth is the best tool to apply the solution for the most effective results. It is also recommended that the surface is wiped until dry.

Who is using Centrego products?

Centrego has many global clients who are household names and distributors who advocate their range of products. Devices produced by Centrego can be found on cruise ships, farms, retail outlets, factories and many other large companies worldwide that wish to protect their customers and staff.

In the shadow of the pandemic and with more emphasis on renewable processes, centrego products are becoming more and more popular. The basic fact is that using Centrego products can save you money and protect your customers and staff, is being passed around by word of mouth very quickly.

This is a change that you can make for your company today. All you need to do is install Centrego systems and you wont need to purchase and disposable cleaning products.

Our solution kills SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19)

It has become more important than ever to ensure our surroundings are clean and free from infection and viruses during and after the global pandemic.

Centrego’s ECA solutions have been tested against both the surrogate SARS-CoV-2 virus and against the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself in a Government research laboratory. This is a very unusual test and is unavailable in commercial laboratories due to the extreme hazard risk. However, it evidences that ECA solutions will destroy the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes severe acute respiratory syndrome – Covid-19.

How do you measure the strength of ECA solution?

We measure the strength of ECA solution in Parts Per Million (ppm) of the active substance in the solution. For ECA solutions Free Available Chlorine (FAC) is the active substance.

The higher the ppm number, the higher the concentration of the solution. If the solution is of a higher concentration, then it will kill more bacteria and viruses. The activated ECA solution smells a bit like swimming pool water – this is chlorine being released. The higher the ppm then, the stronger the solution will smell like this. Testing can be carried out with FAC strips that are dipped into the solution. The strip will then change colour, and this colour is compared to a colour swatch as seen on the container to the left.

ECA solution versus other cleaning products

ECA solution is non-hazardous and non-toxic, and hypoallergenic, making it safe to apply by users. The solution is a combined cleaning agent and a powerful disinfectant, so cleaning and disinfection tasks can be completed in a single application. ECA solutions eliminate microorganisms virtually on contact – this is seen in this video. Click here to watch. This leads to more effective and efficient cleaning regimes by cleaning staff.

Manufactured synthetic chemicals carry high carbon emission levels due to manufacturing process, transport, plastic containerisation, and package and waste disposal. Using ECA systems and making cleaning and disinfectant solutions at the user’s site dramatically reduces the carbon footprint and environmental impact for the user and their company.

Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is the key active substance of ECA solutions. HOCl is naturally produced and mobilised by the human body to fight infections. In many countries, HOCl is used as a wound-care treatment or dental work to provide natural healing for infection control.

Because the human body recognises HOCl it means that ECA solution is not harmful or toxic. On the other hand, many synthetic cleaning and disinfection chemicals can be detrimental to skin and the respiratory system – as illustrated by the danger signs on containers. ECA solution application requires no PPE for users and requires no hazardous warning vectors on the solutions.

Protecting the environment and your staff

The manufacturing of an ECA device requires electronics, plastics and energy–carbon emissions. Centrego takes care to ensure that locally sourced components are used wherever possible, and all are traceable to comply with Centrego’s low carbon emission policy. However, once installed on-site, the carbon emissions from generating 1l of solution is minimal. In addition, there are no plastic containers delivered and to be disposed of as with purchased chemicals, no wastage and no pollution hazards.

We all need to make changes to help the environment. ECA solutions are great for customers, staff, for the public and incredible for the planet.
