Finally - an effective (but gentle) organic hand sanitizer!
Canada's Green Beaver Company launches a 100% natural, non-toxic spray disinfectant that kills harmful viruses and bacteria.
HAWKESBURY, ON, April 14, 2020 /CNW/ - The Green Beaver Company's founders, a biochemist and a microbiologist, have responded quickly to the COVID-19 pandemic, working tirelessly with their team to provide Canadians with an organic, non-toxic disinfectant. Approved by Health Canada, the Antiseptic Spray Hand Sanitizer is already available on the Green Beaver Website.
A gentle, yet effective formula. As most of us can attest, alcohol-based antibacterial gels can cause dryness and irritation, especially when applied repeatedly throughout the day. "To counter this problem while maintaining our hand sanitizer's antiviral properties, we have enriched our formula with vegetable glycerin, a highly effective natural moisturizer that soothes and softens the skin," explains Green Beaver co-founder Alain Ménard.
The power of ethanol. The Green Beaver line of personal care and cleaning products is 100% natural and free of harmful chemicals, and the Antiseptic Spray Hand Sanitizer's innovative formula meets the company's strict standards. "Most commercial disinfecting gels contain harsh antiviral agents such as triclosan, which irritate the skin and can be absorbed by the body," explains Alain Ménard. "Our product, however, relies on ethanol, a plant-based alcohol that has similar properties, minus the toxicity. Our hand sanitizer is therefore safe for the whole family." Notable fact: Green Beaver's Antiseptic Spray Hand Sanitizer contains 70% natural alcohol, while the minimum percentage required by Health Canada for this type of product is 60%.
The spray factor. Easy to use and perfect for the car (or purse), the Antiseptic Spray Hand Sanitizer is a practical alternative to gels. Its contactless application makes it easy to disinfect door handles, steering wheels, grocery carts and packages. It can even be used to clean children's hands when soap and water are not available—though parental supervision is required!
All natural, all good. Let's face it: Most disinfecting gels have a strong, rather unpleasant alcohol smell, but the Green Beaver formula is infused with the delicate fragrance of organic lavender, orange and mint extracts. "We use high-quality essential oils that are sourced locally, because sustainability is of the utmost importance for our company," concludes Alain Ménard.
The Antiseptic Hand Sanitizer Spray is available online at Greenbeaver.com.
