Disinfectant solutions and gels for hands and skin

Disinfectant solutions and gels for hands and skin – hygienic/surgical handrub

When time and efficiency are critical and the skin shows no visible organic soiling, disinfectant solutions and gels for hands and skin are the fastest and safest way to disinfect. They are also the indispensable means of protection when soap and water are not readily available.

On klintensiv.ro you will find ready-to-use (RTU) hydroalcoholic formulations in liquid and gel form, developed specifically to destroy pathogens quickly, with no need to rinse with water.

Our portfolio includes a variety of formulas tailored to every type of medical or industrial protocol: from 85% ethanol-based solutions (such as Alchosept, Klinsept A or Klintensiv Disinfectant Gel) to Dezidiol Spray, which combines two alcohols with chlorhexidine. We also offer complex formulas with an extended spectrum against multi-resistant germs, such as Betaklin, a povidone-iodine solution.

Depending on their specific composition and approvals, these solutions provide an active protective barrier against bacteria (including MRSA, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Acinetobacter baumannii), viruses, fungi, yeasts (with proven efficacy against Candida auris) and mycobacteria.

All of these ready-to-use solutions are ideal both for automatic dispensers in hospitals, clinics and dental practices and in portable formats for everyday use at the office, at school or in industry.

High biocidal performance: surgical disinfection from 90 seconds

The Klintensiv range of hydroalcoholic solutions meets the strictest requirements of operating theatres and areas with high epidemiological risk:

Record action time: Solutions such as Alchosept achieve hygienic hand disinfection in just 30 seconds (according to EN 1500) and complete surgical disinfection from 90 seconds (according to EN 12791).
Long-lasting residual effect: Some solutions in our portfolio, developed specifically for the surgical environment, provide a residual barrier 3 hours after application.
Preoperative skin disinfection: Thanks to their fast action, these solutions are indicated for preparing patients' skin before punctures, injections, catheter insertion or other minimally invasive procedures.

Textures: liquid solutions vs. professional disinfectant gels

To meet the logistical requirements of different working environments, we have developed two main ways of delivering the active substance:

Liquid solutions (Alchosept, Klinsept A, Dezidiol Spray): They penetrate skin folds well, dry extremely quickly and leave no residue on the hands, making them ideal for rapid successive procedures or for disinfecting large areas of skin.
Disinfectant gels (Klintensiv Disinfectant Gel): Formulated to prevent accidental splashing when the dispenser is pressed, they have an optimal consistency that gives excellent control over the amount applied. The special texture is not sticky, absorbs completely and gives an immediate feeling of hydration.

Certified efficacy against multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO) and Candida auris

With microbiological risks on the rise, our hydroalcoholic solutions are tested extensively against the most widespread hospital strains. Some of the disinfectants have proven efficacy according to EN 13727 and EN 13624 against MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Acinetobacter baumannii and Candida auris. Virucidal testing according to EN 14476 also confirms the destruction of enveloped and non-enveloped viruses.

What types of disinfectant solutions for hands and skin are available?

The Klintensiv range of disinfectant solutions includes a variety of gels and liquid solutions, developed for both hygienic and surgical disinfection of hands and skin. You will find alcohol- or povidone-iodine-based formulas suitable for use in practices, clinics, hospitals, food industry units, commercial spaces or at home.

How long should the disinfectant be left to act on hands and skin?

The mandatory contact time for Klintensiv disinfectant solutions to reduce the microbial load is determined by efficacy tests according to EN standards and is stated in the technical documentation and on the label of each product.

Can these disinfectants be used daily without irritating the skin?

Klintensiv disinfectant solutions for hands and skin can be used daily without causing irritation, as they are dermatologically tested and designed specifically for frequent use. Our formulas include emollients that protect the skin's natural hydrolipidic barrier and reduce the risk of excessive dryness with the intensive use typical of healthcare units or the food industry.
