Syspals Sagewash brings sanitising into the 21st century

Syspal's newest product, SAGEWASH™ is set to revolutionise the sanitising process in hygiene conscious industries.

Like all the best inventions, the Sagewash™ Sanitiser is a seemingly simple idea that delivers fantastic results: a hose end sprayer that effectively cleans, sanitises and eliminates odours while blasting away dirt with a jet stream of water.

The secret lies in the patented sanitising system contained in the Sagewash™ unit which is precisely calibrated and scientifically designed and tested to produce a consistently measured solution of hypochlorous acid that is up to 120 times more effective than liquid bleach – yet is absolutely safe.

Operatives simply have to insert a tablet into the Sagewash™ Sanitiser and pull the trigger to release a jet of dilute hypochlorous acid - which, in overall performance, is the most effective germ killing agent known to man. Yet it is safe to use around plants and will not even bleach clothing.


It's the combination of convenience, safety and effectiveness that makes Sagewash™ so revolutionary.

Everyone knows the dangers of handling bleach, but with the Sagewash™ there is no need for batch mixing. Simply take the small sanitiser tablet and drop it into the Sagewash™ unit and you are ready to go – it really is as quick and simple as hosing down. You don't even have to remove the wrapper from the tablet before dropping it in to the sanitiser, allowing you to handle the tablet safely without gloves.

The hypochlorous acid solution produced by the Sagewash™ Sanitiser kills bugs within seconds, yet there is no need to rinse surfaces afterwards – once the Sagewash™ solution has evaporated the chlorine and related substances are gone as well. Despite its highly effective sanitising properties, the solution is non-corrosive and it is perfectly safe to have skin contact with surfaces that have just been sprayed with Sagewash™.


Sagewash™ will remove many stains and whiten most surfaces, especially after spraying a particular surface a few times: it will not bleach stains and surfaces in the way that liquid bleach does – it's a milder solution than most liquid bleaches but is an exponentially more effective sanitiser.

The reaction to the Sagewash™ Sanitiser has been phenomenal among a wide range of end users. Ivan Wood, MD of Ivan Wood & Sons Vegetable Processors commented "changing to Sagewash™ has not only saved us time and money, but in swab tests the TVC (Total Viable Count) is a lot lower than when we used liquid bleach".

Mr John Walker from Everards Brewery confirms that "Sagewash™ not only sanitises our cask machinery more quickly and effectively than our previous method, but by spraying down the brewing house floor each evening, we have eradicated the problem of yeast and mould growing overnight".

John Thompson of John Thompson Seafoods adds that "Sagewash™ has not only eliminated the incidence of listeria completely, but by using it daily to sanitise walls, tables, processing surfaces and prep areas, we have reduced cleaning costs by 25%."

The Sagewash™ Sanitiser has even revolutionised cleaning methods in restaurant kitchens, milking parlours and animal care centres where the combination of effective disinfection and the lack of harmful chemical residues are especially important.

In addition to saving time and manpower, the Sagewash™ Sanitiser is remarkably cost effective in terms of consumables. In most cases, spraying an area once a week is sufficient to prevent mould and algae forming (although of course in food preparation areas the Sagewash™ will be used after each operation) and, as long as the Sagewash is properly drained after each use, and using normal water pressure, a tablet will last for approximately 3½ hours.

Syspal's Sagewash™ Sanitiser really is one of those products that seems too good to be true - by combining simplicity of use with more effective sanitisation it can save money and encourage improved hygiene practice at the same time.
