The World’s Only Authentically Botanical Disinfectant
How Can a Disinfectant Be Less Toxic Than Vinegar And Still Kill Germs?
In nature, plants produce germ-killing ‘essential oils’ to protect themselves from invading microbes, similar to how our bodies produce antibodies for our protection against disease.
What does it mean to be an Authentically Botanical disinfectant? We use the essential oil of the thyme plant as our Active Ingredient, not a synthetic chemical substitute. Using real, food grade ingredients makes Benefect products a sustainable option for disinfecting and cleaning. This is the story of our ingredients…

No Mixing
Ready-To-Use products dispense the correct concentration of disinfectant every time, right out of the bottle. With many concentrates, contractors need to make sure dilution rates, water hardness levels and water temperature are all correct to ensure that the disinfectant is mixed properly: too low & they may not kill effectively, too high & they may be an additional health risk. A ready-to-use formula ensures the product’s proper germ killing ability on every job.

Benefect Disinfectant Spray is ideal for use in restoration sites: water damage, sewage backup, mould remediation, fire restoration and trauma scene decontamination. Effectively eliminates odors produced by odour-causing bacteria, fungi & other organisms on concrete, wood framing & studding, trim & subfloors.
