The benefits of ProtoxHysan

With ProtoxHysan you get a product with many functions and possibilities. The product is especially good at removing mold, removing odors and disinfecting. It is used like other cleaners and can be combined with mechanical cleaning with a stiff brush.

One of the main benefits of ProtoxHysan is that it breaks down mold and bacteria right down to the cell wall. This means that all mold is removed - both living and dead.

Another great advantage is that ProtoxHysan does not pollute the indoor environment (see ProtoxHysan's indoor climate report). The chlorine dioxide breaks down into oxygen and salt.

A third advantage of ProtoxHysan is that it both deodorizes and disinfects after cloudbursts, rising sewage and dead animals and people. ProtoxHysan also disinfects bacteria. It is therefore a preferred product when it comes to cleanup and decontamination in these situations.

ProtoxHysan is tested and approved

ProtoxHysan is included/registered in the database for building products that can be used in Nordic Swan Ecolabel construction.

The product is tested according to EN standards EN 1650, EN 1276 and EN 13697. And according to a Indoor climate report made by Eurofins A/S the product does not affect the indoor climate after application. Therefore, there is no limitation on the size of the treated area.

Application of ProtoxHysan

What is ProtoxHysan

ProtoxHysan is a specially developed product for mould, odour problems and disinfection of bacterial growth. The product can be used by private and professional consumers for everything from window sills to major renovation projects. ProtoxHysan can therefore be used in several different ways and for different purposes depending on the task and scope.

ProtoxHysan has a slightly chlorine-like odor. The product does not contain perfume or other fragrances and therefore does not pollute the indoor environment after treatment.

Where do you use ProtoxHysan

  • Can be used on surfaces affected by mold, odor problems or bacterial growth

The product can destroy some metals and bleach color sensitive surfaces/materials.

When to use ProtoxHysan or ProtoxBiox

ProtoxHysan and ProtoxBiox are both used for cleaning mold and bacteria, but the products are used in different ways and on different surfaces. That's why we have created a user guide to show you when and how to use the two products.

The purpose of the user guide is to achieve better quality control of the tasks. Therefore, we have also included different methods for how both internal and external control can be performed in the manual.

The user guide is in PDF format. You can print it out, laminate it and take it with you on assignments, so you always know how to approach individual tasks.

Preparation

ProtoxHysan is available as both ready-to-use and concentrate. The ready-to-use spray bottle must not be further diluted. The concentrate can be diluted as needed based on the following:

Particularly stubborn discoloration: Concentrated ProtoxHysan

Difficult attacks: 1 part ProtoxHysan + 1 part water

Medium severity attacks: 1 part ProtoxHysan + 2 parts water

Light attacks: 1 part ProtoxHysan + 3 parts water

Consumption is approximately 0.5 liters of application solution per m2 depending on the absorbency of the base.

The product should not be stirred before use.

ProtoxHysan must not be exposed to temperatures above 50°C or added to acid, as chlorine dioxide (see the datasheet).

Ensure good ventilation during treatment and during the drying period.

Always read the user manual and safety data sheet before using the product.

 

When you want to remove mold

It is important to remove the cause of the mold infestation. If the cause is not removed, the mold will most likely return. In some cases, it is not possible to remove the cause. Instead, you can prevent new mold infestations with ProtoxMold.

Mold control for small and private jobs

  1. Remove the infested material if possible
  2. Vacuum the surface with a vacuum cleaner with HEPA filter
  3. Spray ProtoxHysan and scrub with a semi-stiff brush
  4. Rinse with ProtoxHysan and leave on for 24 hours

 

Mold control for larger jobs

  1. Remove the affected material (e.g. wallpaper and/or plaster) as far as possible
  2. Vacuum the surface thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner with pollen filter (microfilter)
  3. Mix ProtoxHysan and water in a flower or garden sprayer
  4. Spray the ProtoxHysan solution on the mold-affected surface
  5. Scrub the surface thoroughly with a nylon brush or power scrubber until the mold is loosened from the surface
  6. Rinse the surface clean with the solution to remove as much mold residue, particles and dirt from the surface as possible
  7. Leave the "wet" Hysan-treated surface for up to 1 day to allow the product to continue to act on the surface, allowing residual odors to oxygenate (oxidize)

After 1 day, the surface can be wiped with a damp cloth. This is usually not necessary if you follow the instructions for use.

 

Respiratory protection for larger tasks

If you need to remove mold in a larger area (more than a few A4 pages) and especially if you need to remove mold-infested materials (e.g. wallpaper, plaster, plaster or insulation), there is a risk that dust and mold spores can be released into the air. We therefore recommend that you use a P3 or better respirator. A typical B2/P3 combination respirator protects you from breathing in particles from the molds and from inhaling aerosols when spraying with ProtoxHysan.

Odor removal with ProtoxHysan

You can also remove bad odors with ProtoxHysan. The odor can be caused by mold growth, bacterial growth, dead animals, corpses and other things.

The odor is removed by wetting or washing the affected surfaces with ProtoxHysan or by mist spraying with the product. Mist spraying is especially effective in hard-to-reach spaces.

The treatment can also be combined with ProtoxAbScent bagswhich is hung up to remove residual odors.

After treatment

Drying time is 4-8 hours at 20°C.

Clean tools and utensils with soap and water after use.

The product must be stored in a dark and cold place and must not be stored together with foodstuffs.

ProtoxHysan has a shelf life of 12 months in unopened packaging.

Empty packaging can be thrown away with the household waste.

Quality control

If you want to check if the mold has been removed yourself, you can do so with a ProClean test. The ProClean test is a standard protein test that shows if the mold proteins have been removed. You can perform the test already 10-15 minutes after using ProtoxHysan. Read more about ProClean here.
