Effective
Electrolytically generated hypochlorous acid kills bacteria, bacterial spores, viruses, and fungi 100x more effectively than chlorine bleach.
Electrolyzed Water Co.
EWCO electrolysis systems use just salt, water and electricity to make hypochlorous acid (HOCl) for food sanitation, contact surface disinfection and water disinfection. No storing or mixing toxic chemicals.

Why HOCl
Electrolytically generated hypochlorous acid kills bacteria, bacterial spores, viruses, and fungi 100x more effectively than chlorine bleach.
Hypochlorous acid is generated on-site at preset concentrations using EWCO systems. No storing or mixing toxic chemicals.
A safe, non-toxic, eco-friendly, no-rinse solution produced with just water, table salt, and electricity.
