Great question! Our 101075 and 10100 products (Everwipe® Surface Disinfectant Wipes) are registered with the EPA as both a sanitizer AND a disinfectant. Surface disinfectants are subject to more rigorous EPA testing requirements and must clear a higher bar for effectiveness than surface sanitizing products – our product has successfully completed both sets of testing. Importantly, sanitizers only have claims for bacteria, whereas disinfectants have claims for both bacteria and viruses.
The amount of time that the surface remains wet is an important factor, so as you correctly point out, if the surface is wet for 15 seconds, then our product is effective against Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Listeria monocytogenes and E. coli (strain O157:H7). If the surface is wet for 60 seconds, then we can include into that list Campylobacter jejuni.
However when the surface is wet for 5 minutes, our product disinfects the long list of bacteria AND viruses that you see on the label (including those ones already mentioned for sanitizing).
Please do make sure to read the label carefully and follow the usage information.
We really appreciate your question, if you have further questions or comments, then please do let us know. Please check out our website for more information on our whole product range www.everwipe.com
