Disinfection That Lasts
For truly long-lasting defense against harmful microorganisms, antimicrobial cleaners should provide 24-hour surface disinfection or sanitization benefits that are compliant with regulated tests. Formulators can achieve reliable disinfection along with other desirable cleaning features with Solvay’s ActizoneTM technology. Our ActizoneTM products give formulators unmatched flexibility as they develop the highest-performing disinfecting cleaners to provide initial kill when applied and all-day microbial defense, even after repeated touches, without sacrificing the cleaning experience.*
The Technology Behind Actizone™
The combination of the Actizone™ P5 polymer and our Actizone™ S5 surfactant package, along with established quaternary ammonium chloride active ingredients, creates Actizone™ F5, a ready-to-use surface disinfectant cleaner solution. Our proprietary polymer works with antimicrobial actives to form an invisible protective film on surfaces where the actives kill microorganisms as needed for up to 24 hours. These long-lasting antimicrobial formulations remain effective even when surfaces are repeatedly contaminated or eroded by continued contact. Unlike conventional household disinfectants. Solutions developed with the range of Actizone™ products retain sufficient levels of antimicrobial actives to kill germs for hours after being applied to a surface.*
Solutions to Keep Your Family Safe
24-Hour Antimicrobial Protection
Actizone™ technology traps antimicrobial actives to form a protective film on a surface to offer 24-hour surface protection as actives remain continuously available to kill bacteria and viruses as needed.*
Fast-Kill of More Than 99.9% of Germs
Multipurpose disinfectant cleaners with ActizoneTM technology provide consumers with expected fast germ-kill of bacteria and viruses, including the coronavirus while providing desirable long-lasting antimicrobial properties.* The efficacy of Actizone™ technology is proven through rigorous independent laboratory tests.
Optimal Cleaning Experiences
Along with outstanding disinfection benefits, Actizone™ products can be used in multipurpose disinfectant cleaners to provide excellent shine and a residue-free finish on a range of surfaces, including laminate, polycarbonate, glass and steel.
Sustainable Disinfection
Actizone™ products inherently reduce cleaning time in homes and industrial settings for more sustainable disinfection processes. The 24-hour antimicrobial solutions formulated with Actizone™ technology continue to disinfect surfaces all day and all night, allowing consumers to use fewer products and spend less time cleaning commonly touched surfaces.*

This ready-to-dilute 6x concentrate, results in the Actizone™ F5 disinfectant solution with 24-hour antimicrobial performance.* It preserves the natural shine of a surface by ensuring a residue-free clean.
Our proprietary polymer is the core technology that delivers the long-lasting performance that ActizoneTM is known for in multipurpose disinfectant cleaning. Compatible with most standard quat active ingredients used for surface disinfection, ActizoneTM P5 forms a barrier with active biocide to remain on surfaces longer than typical cleaning solutions. For outstanding performance and solution flexibility, formulators can use ActizoneTM P5 as an inert in combination with quat active ingredients for long-lasting disinfectant cleaners design. All ActizoneTM P5 ingredients are inerts permitted by the regulatory bodies in the United States, Canada, Europe and other regions.
Solvay’s Actizone™ S5 surfactant package is designed to optimize the balance between good cleaning and long-lasting antimicrobial properties when formulated with Actizone™ P5 and quat active ingredients. The high-performing surfactant package features inert ingredients listed by EPA and is considered REACH-registered when purchased in Europe. Formulators can rely on the excellent cleaning and residue-free performance of Actizone™ S5.
