Packhouse Sanitation

Vibacsan® hygiene and sanitation products comprise of a proprietary blend of bioflavonoids, phenolic compounds and fruit acids, abundantly found in the human daily diet of fruits and vegetables. Most aromatic substances synthesized by plants are phenols or their oxygen substituted derivatives. All ingredients are carried in a food safe naturally derived solvent which makes the active ingredients infinitely soluble in water (Patent no. 2013/01608)[3][4]).

Mode of action

In many cases, these substances serve as plant defense mechanisms against predation by insects and herbivores. More importantly, the ViBacSan® range exhibit highly efficacious anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral activity, most likely due to the polyphenols ability to inactivate microbial adhesions, enzymes and cell envelope transport proteins. These methods of action do not cause a resistance build-up in bacteria (Patent no. 2013/01608)[3][5][6]).

Why the alternative to synthetic?
