The “Kleen KeysTM” Silicone Keyboard is “state of the art” design and will withstand a lot of abuse.
The keyboard underwent testing at Virox Technologies Inc for compatibility with their products and there was no effect on the lettering with repeated cleaning. The life expectancy of the keyboard is ten years.
What's on Your Keyboard?
Well, if it hasn't been cleaned recently, there'll be visible things such as crisps and biscuit crumbs, hair and maybe a sprinkling of dandruff.
But what about the things you can't see?
Saliva. Every time you breathe, moisture is created and it settles somewhere!
Dead skin cells. Yes, afraid so. We all shed millions every day and where better to come to rest than in a computer keyboard.
Body fat. Believe us, it's true. Every time you type, touch a screen or telephone, the oil in your skin leaves a microscopic film.
Just think what a few months' build up looks like under a microscope.
***A study for the Clorox company found that half of all keyboards tested positive for URINE.
You may not mind having a collection of nasties in your keyboard if they belong to you - but what about when equipment is shared? Do you really want to collect body fat and saliva from someone else?
What is Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide? (AHP)
- AHP is a patented synergistic blend of commonly used, safe ingredients that when combined with low levels of hydrogen peroxide dramatically increase its germicidal potency and cleaning performance.
- AHP is composed of Hydrogen Peroxide, Surface Acting Agents (surfactants), wetting agents (a substance that reduces the surface tension of a liquid, causing the liquid to spread across or penetrate more easily the surface of a solid) & chelating agents (a substance that helps to reduce metal content and/or hardness of water). The ingredients are all listed on the EPA and Health Canada Inerts lists and the FDA Generally Regarded as Safe List (GRAS). All chemicals used in the formulation of AHP are commonly found in commercial and industrial cleaners and disinfectants.
What are the advantages of using AHP as a Cleaner & Disinfectant?
- AHP is a unique formulation that has the perfect balance between Speed of Germicidal Efficacy, Cleaning Efficacy, Safety for Users and Occupants, and Environmental profile.
- It is easy to make a strong disinfectant to kill pathogens, however, it is difficult to create one that won?t eat the surfaces it?s put on or harm the user that has to apply it or the environment that has to absorb it. This is the challenge for every chemical manufacturer.
- AHP has a Broad-Spectrum Sanitizing Claim in 30 seconds (5 Log reduction (99.999%) against Vegetative Bacteria), a Bactericidal Claim in 3 minutes (6 Log reduction (99.9999%) against Vegetative Bacteria) and is a General Virucide Claim in 5 minutes (3 Log reduction (99.9%) against The Polio Sabin Strain Type 1 Virus).
- AHP provides exceptional Cleaning Properties even in the presence of dried organics and inorganics due to the oxidizing effect of Hydrogen Peroxide and the synergy of the ingredients in the formula.
AHP has an excellent Safety & Environmental Profile for the user and the environment. It is non-irritating to eyes & skin, is free of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), there are no toxic ingredients in the formula and AHP does not leave any residual chemistry on the surface once dried.
