Approved chemicals for sanitations
Hello,
I observe this statement that, "Use approved chemicals in sanitation".
Can someone clarify the meaning of the term "approved"? What specific criteria or approvals are implied, such as environmental considerations, sustainability (green), effectiveness against microbes, corrosiveness, alkalinity, acidity, or other factors?
Thanks,

Greetings Sayed,
It means approved and licenced by the appropriate Official Authority for its intended use.This is followed by the obligatory MSDS, whch describes literally everything (name, chemical type, chemical properties, appropriate use eg food or non-food-grade, intended and suitable use proposal, usage instructions, environmental/ health dangers, measures for its handling, what to do in case of contact with the eyes/skin/mouth etc etc etc).
Regards!
In the USA, I would always want to have a NSF letter for cleaners and sanitizers, incidental contact lubes.
