PERASAN A is a peracetic acid (PAA) antimicrobial formulation that cleans, sanitizes, and disinfects. Its unique microbiocide properties work against a wide range of microorganisms in cold or warm water.

PERASAN A can be used as an industrial sanitizer and disinfectant for previously cleaned hard, non-porous contact surfaces in dairies, wineries, breweries, food and beverage plants, poultry and egg facilities, and animal housing. And it can be applied in a fogger for high-level microbial control.

Its food-grade qualification makes PERASAN A an excellent option for CIP pipeline cleaning, sanitizing, bottle and filler sanitizing, and disinfection in the dairy, food, and beverage processing industry. It can remove biofilm on membranes used for ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis.

PERASAN A can also be used as a biocide for cooling water treatments to control microbial, slim, or biofilm growth.

As a hard, non-porous surface disinfectant, PERASAN A is an excellent option for hospitals, schools, industrial facilities, office buildings, and veterinary clinics, amongst others.

Its bacteria, slime, odor, and algae control features make PERASAN A an outstanding choice for water treatment procedures and agricultural water systems.

Plus, PERASAN A is approved for direct fruit and vegetable contact without a final rinse. It’s Kosher endorsed, and OMRI listed for its use in organic production.
