(Newswire Today) —  Owings Mills, MD, United States, 2007-09-25 - Sterilex today introduces an exciting drain and trunk line program involving the use of Sterilex Ultra-Kleen CW502 biocide in an easy to use device that applies thick foam to drains and down into trunk lines.

This program is cost effective and allows users to kill bacteria, remove dangerous biofilms, kill mold and mildew, and remove organic contaminants from their drains and trunk lines. The Sterilex drain program is the first and only program in the US that has been EPA approved to remove biofilm and kill dangerous pathogens that live in drains and trunk lines.

The Sterilex drain program has attracted widespread interest in the food processing, food service, and janitorial industries. Drains and trunk lines have been shown to be a breeding ground for resistant pathogens such which like to form protective biofilms in wet environments. Sterilex offers a revolutionary new formula to combat dangerous biofilms and prevent cross-contamination.

Sterilex products have received widespread recognition, and are recommended by QA/QC managers at leading food processing companies. Sterilex was awarded a USDA National Research Initiative grant to demonstrate the efficacy of its products against Listeria monocytogenes in meat and poultry plants. Sterilex was the first company to receive biofilm removal claims for industrial and public health applications by the US EPA, and was also the proud recipient of “Bio Product of the Year” award from the Technology Council of Maryland.
