How SafeSurface works
Unlike other surface disinfectants which leave a residue of dangerous chemicals when they dry (hence the need for cleaning off), SafeSurface disinfectant breaks down into harmless components upon drying and thus safe to use even in rooms used by children and can be used to disinfect toys. It is also safe to use in Food processing plants.
