FAQs

I don't think the ProtoxAbScent sachets are working - what should I do?

ProtoxAbScent works by forming chlorine dioxide and the process is highly dependent on humidity. During very dry periods when the humidity is below 50%, it may be necessary to place a bowl of water next to the Protox AbScent bag to start the process.

Can I stay in a room with a ProtoxAbScent bag?

ProtoxAbScent works by releasing chlorine dioxide on contact with the moisture in the air. In normal use, the concentration of chlorine dioxide does not exceed the worker's hygienic limit, which is the highest concentration that you can be exposed to in an 8-hour working day.

Due to the different conditions in the rooms being treated (ventilation, humidity and temperature), Protox recommends that you do not spend long periods of time in the room with activated Protox AbScent.

Can ProtoxSkimmel be used indoors?

Yes, you can, ProtoxProtect can be used to prevent mould indoors.

ProtoxSkimmel contains no volatile substances and therefore there are no emissions to the indoor environment. However, ProtoxSkimmel must not be used where there is a risk of the treated surface coming into contact with food.

ProtoxInsekt - who can use this product

Insect repellents such as ProtoxInsekt are generally approved for use in use class 1 according to DS/EN 335-1. This means indoors, where there is no risk of direct wetting or re-wetting due to condensation (if this is the case, we have a use class 2 or 3 situation).

There are some situations where a use class 1 situation becomes a use class 2 situation, such as a burst pipe under a floor or condensation due to blocked or missing ventilation. When the burst pipe is repaired or ventilation is re-established, the structure becomes dry and we again have a use class 1 situation where Protox Insect can be used.

Products like ProtoxInsekt should only be used by professionals, as they are deemed to have the expertise to determine which use class the situation belongs to.
