Ozone (O3) is a powerful bacteria killer that is 3000 times stronger than bleach, 1000 times faster than any other disinfectant on the market, and completely safe for the environment. Ozone leaves absolutely no surface residue and is approved by the FDA as a food additive/preservative that is commonly used for water purification.
WHAT IS OZONE?
Ozone (O3) is known as “active oxygen” as it is a molecule made up of three Oxygen atoms. It is created in nature by the combination of oxygen in the air we regularly breathe (O2) and the ultraviolet rays of the sun or by the corona discharge that occurs during a lightning storm. Ozone is a natural purifier and powerful oxidizer that has a clean, fresh scent (often noticed after a rainstorm).
WHAT DOES OZONE DO?
- The Ozone layer in the atmosphere protects the earth from deadly radiation and is what makes the sky look blue.
- Ozone destroys bacteria, viruses, mold, and mildew. (See the list attached)
- Ozone eliminates spores, cysts, yeast, and fungus.
- Ozone oxidizes iron, sulfur, manganese and hydrogen sulfate.
- Ozone eliminates oils and other contaminants found in athletic venues.
- Ozone eliminates odors in air, such as smoke, and body odor smell like we get in our athletic facilities.
- Ozone gets deep into the fabric of the athletic equipment to kill all germs (not just the ones on the surface) like most chemicals.
- Ozone keeps food and water fresh.

- Ozone does not have to be purchased or stored.
