About Selective Micro Technologies

Selective Micro Technologies has been manufacturing Ultra-Pure chlorine dioxide disinfectants and sanitizers in Ohio since 1999. For over 25 years we have supplied distributors, wholesalers, and direct industrial accounts across food safety, agriculture, healthcare, water treatment, and industrial sanitation.

Our products are built around a patented micro-reactor technology that generates chlorine dioxide without chlorite or chlorate contamination and without acidic byproducts. The result is a neutral pH, low-residue disinfectant that is safer on materials, safer on surfaces, and more effective against biofilm than conventional chemistry.

We manufacture everything in-house in Ohio and supply product nationwide. Every product we make is EPA registered, and our line carries FDA Food Contact Notifications, OMRI listing, NSF certification, and ISO9001 quality standards.

Why Selective Micro?

We don't resell. We don't repackage. We manufacture.

Every product that leaves our facility is made to the same Ultra-Pure standard -- no shortcuts, no compromises on purity, and no chemistry we can't stand behind. That is what 25+ years of manufacturing chlorine dioxide looks like.

What Makes Chlorine Dioxide Different

  • Chlorine dioxide is more chemically selective than bleaches, ozone, or peroxides. This means that it destroys unwanted microbes without burning or corroding surfaces.
  • Chlorine dioxide is a neutral molecule. This allows it to seamlessly infiltrate growths (such as biofilm) and destroy the inner-lying molds and spores.
  • Chlorine dioxide disinfects via oxidation. The chlorine dioxide molecule has an oxidation number 2½ times higher than bleach, ozone, and peroxide, which means that lower levels of ClO₂ can accomplish the same disinfection applications as higher levels of these conventional chemicals.
  • Due to chlorine dioxide’s unique method of pathogen inactivation, viruses, bacteria, molds, and spores are unable to build up a tolerance to the ClO₂ molecule.
  • Chlorine dioxide has a high material compatibility and leaves no residual on hard, non-porous surfaces.

  • Are you products EPA-registered?

    Yes, our Selectrocide line of products have been tested according to current guidelines, and results verified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. Our product is classified as a hospital disinfectant, which can also be used to sanitize and deodorize.

  • Are you products organic?

    Yes, many of our products have been reviewed by the Organic Materials Review Institute, or OMRI, according the National Organic Program guidelines. Our products can be used for a variety of applications in the manufacture of organic products.

  • Is your product approved by the FDA?

    Yes, our products have many Food Contact Notifications that allow direct washing of food products, such as FCNs 445, 645, 1578, 1764, and 1804.

  • Can you apply your products directly to food?

    Yes, SMT products have approvals and clearances from both the EPA and FDA as a direct antimicrobial rinse/wash for raw agricultural commodities and processed foods such as fruits, vegetables, red meat, poultry, and seafood.

  • Do you offer distributorship opportunities?

    Yes, we are willing to work with organizations in various industries to educate salesforces, provide regulatory guidance, and assist in building a distribution network for expansion of sales in your market.

  • What is chlorine dioxide used for?

    Chlorine dioxide can be used to disinfect or sanitize surfaces in virtually any area such as hospitals, labs, or food processing facilities. It can also be used as very effective space deodorizer for cars, boats, or RVs.
