How to Purify Water: NEUTHOX® is a low-hazard HOCl biocide, ideal for water system disinfection and secondary disinfection.

GENOX Generators use a process called electrolysis to turn brine into NEUTHOX®, a powerful disinfectant. NEUTHOX® effectively controls biofilm and eliminates harmful bacteria like Legionella and Pseudomonas.

These generators are widely used across NHS sites, providing a reliable solution for potable and process water disinfection. Plus, NEUTHOX® is a low-hazard HOCl biocide, making it safe and efficient.
