Delox is excited to announce a pivotal regulatory milestone in bio-decontamination technology. Our solid hydrogen peroxide formulation (DeloxHP) has received official classification as non-corrosive and non-hazardous from the Department of Transportation (DOT), meaning it is not categorized under Organic Peroxides. This distinction simplifies our product’s transportation, as no additional safety precautions are needed—a notable difference from liquid hydrogen peroxide.

Understanding the Benefits of Solid Hydrogen Peroxide in Bio-Decontamination

Hydrogen peroxide is a key player in effective bio-decontamination due to its strong antimicrobial properties. However, liquid hydrogen peroxide solutions are classified as Packing Group 2 materials, signifying a higher risk and requiring special handling and storage procedures. In comparison, Delox’s solid-state hydrogen peroxide formulation is stable and non-reactive, minimizing hazards while maintaining powerful decontamination efficiency.

Our proprietary technology utilizes a unique matrix to stabilize hydrogen peroxide in solid form. When activated, this structure releases a controlled vapor, offering effective disinfection while significantly reducing associated risks.

Logistical and Operational Advantages of Non-Hazardous Classification

With the DOT’s non-hazardous classification, Delox’s cartridges are now exempt from the typical logistical challenges faced by hazardous materials, resulting in streamlined shipping, faster deliveries, and reduced overall costs. For our clients, this shift means safer, more accessible bio-decontamination without compromising on efficacy. You can learn more about how non-hazardous materials are classified by visiting the Department of Transportation’s website.

A Commitment to Safer Bio-Decontamination Technology

At Delox, we are committed to advancing bio-decontamination through both safety and innovation. This non-hazardous designation for our solid hydrogen peroxide formulation represents a critical step in that journey, aligning with our dedication to sustainability and client safety.
