Across critical sectors like food processing, healthcare, and commercial facilities, maintaining a clean, pathogen-free environment is non-negotiable. That’s why more businesses are turning to chlorine dioxide fumigation—a powerful, residue-free, and highly effective method of industrial disinfection. At Selective Micro Technologies, our patented Selectrocide® product delivers ultra-pure chlorine dioxide, making it the gold standard for modern fumigation and sanitization needs.
Broad-Spectrum Pathogen Elimination
Chlorine dioxide is a fast-acting biocide capable of eliminating a wide range of harmful organisms, including bacteria, viruses, mold, and spores. Unlike conventional disinfectants that only treat surfaces, ClO₂ gas penetrates the airspace and reaches into crevices, ducts, and other hard-to-reach areas.
📊 According to the CDC, Listeria monocytogenes causes about 1,600 illnesses and 260 deaths annually in the U.S., mostly linked to contaminated food environments. (CDC Source)
Chlorine dioxide is proven effective against Listeria and other high-risk pathogens, making it an essential tool for food safety and contamination prevention.
Residue-Free Disinfection
Traditional fumigants like formaldehyde or ethylene oxide leave behind hazardous residues that require post-treatment cleaning and extended downtime. In contrast, chlorine dioxide breaks down into non-toxic byproducts—primarily salt and water—making it ideal for residue-free disinfection in sensitive areas like:
- Food packaging facilities
- Medical device manufacturing
- Electronics production lines
No harmful residues. No post-wipe. Just a cleaner, safer environment.
Reliable in Variable Conditions
One of the major advantages of chlorine dioxide fumigation is its stability and performance across a broad range of environmental conditions. Selectrocide remains effective in high humidity, fluctuating temperatures, and varied pH levels—perfect for:
- Warehouses
- Grain silos
- Food storage facilities
- Pharmaceutical cleanrooms
Fast, Efficient, and Downtime-Reducing
Time is money—especially in high-throughput industries. Selectrocide’s fast-acting formula neutralizes pathogens quickly, often in a single treatment cycle, allowing you to get back to business faster. That makes chlorine dioxide the fumigant of choice for operations needing rapid turnover with minimal disruption.
An Environmentally Responsible Choice
Unlike ozone-depleting chemicals or halogenated gases, chlorine dioxide is a greener alternative. It does not contribute to air pollution or leave behind harmful chlorinated byproducts. Our ultra-pure ClO₂ is safe, sustainable, and aligns with corporate environmental goals—especially for companies seeking green fumigation solutions.
Versatile Applications for Chlorine Dioxide Fumigation
Chlorine dioxide is used in a wide variety of industries thanks to its dual functionality in both gas and liquid form. Applications include:
- Food & beverage processing
- Healthcare sterilization
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing
- Water damage and mold remediation
- Industrial odor elimination
With Selectrocide, you can implement a customized ClO₂ solution for your facility's unique needs—backed by our patented generation technology that ensures safety and precision.
