It would be able to kill germs on contact just as well or better than Purell, but it would provide much longer, (persistent) protection
It would eliminate dry, irritated skin
It would be able to be used in a whole line of products – sanitizer, lotion, soap, scrub, wipes –while maintaining effectiveness
It would be less expensive than its competitors
Designed to prevent infection in hospitals, nursing homes, and homes
Unique antimicrobial technology that not only kills on contact, but keeps on destroying disease-causing germs for six hours
Core of the patented technology lies in the synergistic combination of antimicrobial agents and a revolutionary matrix that keeps the product on the skin
Patented matrix prevents skin irritation or dryness
BZT (benzethonium chloride)◦ Synthetic ammonia salt
◦ Odorless, white solid, soluble in water
◦ Anitseptic and anti-infective properties
◦ Used as an antimicrobial agent
◦ Broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity
◦ Soft, powdery afterfeel on skin
◦ Long lasting persistence against microorganisms
Has been monographed by the FDA as safe
Combining BZT with other ingredients efficacy was increased 100-1000 times!
Zylast performance Broad Spectrum kill results at 15/30/60 seconds registered 99.99% for almost all 25 representative organisms including two of the most prevalent, MRSA and VRE and
Continued killing 90% after 1 hour
Persistent kill for up to 6 hours

The product killed more than 99.99% of:
◦ Staphylococcus epidermis ◦ Staphylococcus aureus ◦ MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) ◦ VRE (Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium) ◦ Enterobacter aerogenes ◦ Serratia marcescens◦ E. coli ◦ Klebsiella pneumonia ◦ Pseudomonas aeruginosa◦ Acinetobacter baumanni
◦ H1N1- Swine Flu◦ Norovirus◦ Rhinovirus◦ Rotavirus
Did you know that high concentration alcohol
hand sanitizers like Purell kill germs only until
the alcohol evaporates, about 15-30 seconds
and then STOPS working?
And keep this word in mind, BACTERIA…
High Concentration Alcohol Sanitizers are active only until they evaporate – 15 seconds
Hand Soaps also allow for re-contamination
In some cases washing your hands with just water has proven to be more effective that using high concentration alcohol sanitizers!

Antiseptic: The hand sanitizer is alcohol-based and compliant with CDC regulations for hospitals, but provides persistent protection without any skin irritation, as proved by independent lab testing
Antiseptic Lotion: Not alcohol-based and formulated with high-end emollients and skin-care products, the lotion feels luxurious on the skin while providing extended protection from germs, even after the hands are washed
Foaming Hand Soap: The hand soap is built around patented Zylast technology, not only killing on contact but providing persistent protection for six hours, without the harsh feel of many soaps or the health risks of Triclosan-based products
Surgical Scrub: Immediately eliminates germs on contact and provides persistent protection for six hours to protect staff and patients in the operating room
HAI’s are on the rise; they are a significant concern for patients, staff and HC facilities
Each year nearly 2 million patients acquire infections from stays in the hospital. The CDC estimates this adds $4.5 billion a year to healthcare costs in the United States
Nearly 100,000 patients die each year from HAI’s
80% of HAI’s are through direct contact
Healthcare hand wash compliance is a genuine concern; statistically is followed only 50% of the time
Zylast has the only complete line of antimicrobial products: Antiseptic, Antiseptic Lotion, Surgical Scrub, and Foaming Hand Soap
All Zylast formulations kill more than 99.99% of germs immediately and provide persistent protection, as proven by independent lab testing
Clinical testing shows that Zylast does not irritate skin, even in tests that simulate a hospital environment
Because of the power of the patented technology less product is needed; Zylast can save you money
Was shown to decrease illness-related absenteeism in elementary schools by 42% (Dyer et al) as compared to 0-19% with alcohol alone
In a pilot hospital study of more than 6,000 patients, hospital-acquired infection rates were reduced by 44% across 3 different wards using the Antiseptic
“No comparable product is capable of providing the degree of the long term protection exhibited by the Zylast® hand sanitizers.”
-Haskins Lab, Pace University
“We have used the Zylast Hand Lotion product in our healthcare institution and found it to be extremely effective as an antimicrobial as well as soft to the touch as a hand lotion. Our staff has complimented us on the acquisition of this new product.”
– Mindy G., Meadowbrook Care Center
“We have been using your Zylast Hand Lotion now for a while and are pleased to report the success of your product. Not only has Zylast been able to effectively combat the spread of infection, our staff has eagerly adopted the product. Zylast acts like a soothing hand lotion for their often dry, over-washed hands.”
- Ryan O., Atlantis Rehabilitation and Residential Healthcare Facility
“The hand sanitizers currently on the market are of very little use. Only Zylast XP can afford the doctor and staff up to 90% protection for up to 4 hours. Zylast XP should be in every treatment room and at the front desk in every dental office…To sum it up, Zylast XP is the Hand Sanitizer of choice for maximum protection"
-Joseph Schachner, D.D.S.
