Description: CitroLife is a unique range of organic and natural products for cleaning, sanitizing and preserving your modern way of living without sacrificing your health. About 20 years ago, food technologist Ravi Narain made a breakthrough discovery from a desire to decrease the amount of chemicals used in food processing. Mr Narain took citrus pith and pulp and transformed it into a powerful anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-mould, anti-fungal and anti-oxidant compound. This all natural active ingredient made entirely from plant based materials would become the foundation of CitroLife®, to be used as a natural preservative, cleaner, or even hospital grade disinfectant. In 2004, Mr Narain's CitroLife® technology became the first certified organic disinfectant in the world. It's been trialled and tested in numerous international laboratories to achieve a number of notable certifications and accreditations. Most importantly, it has been proven effective against bacteria, viruses, moulds, yeast and fungi while being totally safe and non-toxic. Today the Citrolife® range of products covers not only general disinfection, food and agriculture but has expanded into cosmetics, health care and personal care products. CitroZine®, the active ingredient of Citrolife® products, is so versatile that it is now used globally in all of the above and we're constantly conducting research and development to expand it's uses and (URL removed) protection of health in humans, animals and plants in an environmentally sustainable system is Citrolife®'s vision for the future.
