Clorox Healthcare Introduces Two Breakthrough Innovations to Help Solve Infection Prevention Challenges

Clorox Healthcare launches two new innovative products designed to help close a critical compliance gap in daily disinfection: Clorox Healthcare Quat Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes, featuring a 1-minute contact time and 40% less alcohol*, and Clorox Healthcare HyperOxi Disinfecting Wipes a bleach-free sporicidal wipe powered by Quanticare Technology that is easy to use and gentle on surfaces.

• Clorox Healthcare unveils an expanded healthcare portfolio designed to advance infection prevention with a quat alcohol-based daily disinfecting wipe and a bleach-free sporicidal disinfecting wipe.
• Wipes innovations help address emerging pathogen threats, burdens and support compliance in fast-paced healthcare environments where contact time protocols can be difficult to maintain.
• New products include Clorox Healthcare Quat Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes and Clorox Healthcare HyperOxi Disinfecting Wipes.

OAKLAND, Calif., June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Clorox Healthcare today announced two new innovative products designed to address critical challenges in infection prevention: Clorox Healthcare Quat Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes and Clorox Healthcare HyperOxi Disinfecting Wipes. These new wipes are designed to address critical needs in healthcare environments, helping improve workflow efficiency and compliance.

New Clorox Healthcare Quat Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes Address Infection Prevention Challenges
The innovations come at a time of rapid change in infection prevention, as facilities face staffing pressures, escalating microbial threats—like C. auris—and increasing operational demands. Most existing quat alcohol wipes have contact times of two minutes or longer and contain high levels of alcohol, creating a compliance challenge: either staff cannot keep surfaces wet for the required contact time, or they must re-wipe surfaces to do so, resulting in added time and labor costs.

Clorox Healthcare Quat Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes are formulated with 40% less alcohol* to help keep surfaces wet for the full contact time and support compliant and efficient workflows. The patent-pending, triple-active formula gives healthcare facilities a new daily disinfecting option that delivers fast efficacy and built-in compliance.

Expanding Clorox Healthcare's Sporicidal Portfolio with a Bleach-Free Alternative
While Clorox has provided trusted, bleach-based solutions to healthcare and commercial facilities for more than 100 years, it is now introducing its first-ever bleach-free sporicidal wipes with Clorox Healthcare HyperOxi Disinfecting Wipes powered by Quanticare Technology. The non-bleach formula is designed to deliver broad-spectrum efficacy, eliminating C. difficile spores in 4 minutes and other pathogens—including TB, C. auris, and Norovirus—in 1 minute or less, while offering broad surface compatibility and a comfortable user experience.

Offering a non-bleach scent and minimal surface residue, the ready-to-use Clorox Healthcare HyperOxi Disinfecting Wipes provide sporicidal efficacy, without tradeoffs.

Expanded Portfolio Designed to Meet All Healthcare Disinfection Needs
Together, the introduction of Clorox Healthcare Quat Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes and Clorox Healthcare HyperOxi Disinfecting Wipes reflects Clorox Healthcare's commitment to developing cleaning and disinfecting solutions to meet the broad range of healthcare disinfection needs and solve real-world challenges. This expanded portfolio of ready-to-use wipes and sprays helps infection prevention and environmental services teams disinfect with greater confidence. Paired with Purell hand hygiene solutions, healthcare facilities gain access to a trusted portfolio of products, services and education across the infection prevention category to help improve patient safety.

Industry Leadership Perspective
"Infection prevention teams are under increasing pressure to do more with less and disinfection solutions must be designed for the realities of today's healthcare environments," said Alec Frisch, General Manager, CloroxPro. "With Clorox Healthcare Quat Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes and Clorox Healthcare HyperOxi Disinfecting Wipes, we're delivering innovations designed for real-world compliance—helping teams meet required contact times without added steps or slowdowns, while providing options that make sporicidal disinfection more comfortable for everyday use."

Availability
The new Clorox Healthcare Quat Alcohol Disinfecting Wipes and Clorox Healthcare HyperOxi Disinfecting Wipes will be available in small and large wipe sizes later this year through major healthcare distributors.
