Alcohol Sanitiser AS-60 (73% v/v | 60% m/v) is a ready-to-use, no-rinse sanitiser for all cleaned surfaces. It evaporates quickly, has a strong antibacterial action and leaves no residues.
AS-60 is ideal for sanitising food contact areas, healthcare equipment, mattresses, phones, handrails, door handles, computer keyboards, even carpets.
AS-60 is also an excellent hand sanitiser.

Key Benefits

• Sanitises many surfaces, even hands.
• Dries very quickly.
• Excellent for food-contact surfaces.
• Dissolves certain resins, inks, cosmetics, fats and oils.
• Removes dirt and fingerprints without smearing or streaking.

How Does It Work?

AS-60 has the ability to kill micro-organisms such as bacteria, fungi and many viruses by denaturing their proteins and dissolving their lipids (fatty materials). It is however not effective on bacterial spores. This germ-killing power makes AS-60 an excellent sanitiser for food-processing surfaces, door handles, taps, door touch-plates, toilet seats and other human contact surfaces. For maximum effectiveness, the surfaces should first be cleaned with an Agar detergent to remove bulk soilage before AS-60 is applied.

For Use On…

AS-60 is ideal for sanitising food contact surfaces including benchtops, cutting boards, hotplates (when cold – not when hot), utensils, cutlery, range-hoods, and processing machines. It will also remove “sticky tape” residues, cosmetic stains, fingerprints, and smears from hard surfaces. It is also useful for cleaning glass windows and mirrors.

Application Use with CAUTION. There is a fire risk because AS-60 and its vapour are highly flammable. DO NOT apply to hot surfaces. DO NOT use near ignition sources, flames or sparks. Alcohol vapour is invisible but is still flammable. 

Use undiluted AS-60 and spray a coarse mist over the area being sanitised. Spread uniformly using a dedicated clean cloth. Leave to evaporate until dry. Rinsing is not required. 

AS-60 is safe to use on stainless steel, aluminium, all other metals, and most plastics. 

This product may affect rubbers, some plastics, or the surface to be cleaned. Please test this product on a small inconspicuous area first and verify that it will not be softened, made sticky or changed in appearance after contact. 

Hand-sanitising:

Wet the hands with about ½ teaspoon of AS-60, then rub the hands together vigorously until they are dry. Children should be supervised by an adult when using AS-60. 

If the hands are visibly dirty, use soap and water to clean them first.

Never light a cigarette or expose the hands to flames or sparks when using AS-60. It is flammable and could catch fire.
