Why Hotel Hygiene Demands Smarter Cleaning
Hotel hygiene goes far beyond clean linens and polished mirrors. Guests now expect assurance that every surface — from bathroom counters to remotes — has been disinfected safely and effectively.
Traditional housekeeping cleaning agents rely on strong fragrances or harsh chemicals to “smell clean,” but these formulas can irritate guests and staff alike. CleanSmart’s hypochlorous acid (HOCl) solution eliminates germs without leaving harmful residue or artificial scent, creating a true clean — not just a perfumed one.

The HOCl Advantage in Modern Hospitality
Hypochlorous acid is the same germ-fighting molecule your immune system produces naturally. When stabilized, it becomes a hospital-grade yet non-toxic disinfectant — safe for staff, guests, and the environment.
For hotels, motels, and short-term rentals, HOCl provides a single product that can handle nearly every task:
- Hard surfaces: countertops, faucets, doorknobs, tile.
- Electronics: remotes, touchscreens, thermostats.
- Soft furnishings: curtains, chairs, throw pillows.
- Bathrooms: glass, porcelain, and chrome finishes.
It’s the simplest way to maintain consistent hotel hygiene while meeting Health Canada standards.
