Disinfection where it matters most — where germs hide out of sight.

Drains and pipework are one of the most overlooked sources of contamination — yet they are a key breeding ground for bacteria, fungi, viruses, and biofilms. Warm, damp conditions combined with organic waste create biofilms—protective layers where harmful pathogens thrive and resist standard cleaning.

These contaminants can spread through splashback onto surrounding surfaces or cause persistent, unpleasant odours.

SANI-99™ SteriDrain Pro is specifically designed for drainage systems, delivering deep biofilm penetration to break down these layers and eliminate hidden pathogens that conventional cleaners cannot reach.

Why SANI-99SteriDrain Pro is Better for Drains & Pipes

Feature

SANI-99™ SteriDrain Pro

Traditional Drain Cleaners

(Bleach/Chlorine/Acids)

Biofilm Control

Penetrates & disrupts biofilms at source

Limited surface-level action

Pathogen Kill Rate

Log 7 (99.99995%), effective even within biofilms

Often limited, inconsistent within biofilms

Contact Time

5–10 minutes (routine)

Typically longer with variable results

Residues

Breaks down cleanly, no harsh odours or residues

Strong chemical smell, corrosive residues

Infrastructure Safety

Non-corrosive, safe for pipework and systems

Can damage pipes, seals, plastics, and metals

Safety Profile

Non-hazardous at use dilution, low PPE requirement

Harsh chemicals, requires PPE

Applications

Drains, U-bends, pipework, gullies, waste outlets

Limited use, risk of material damage

Sustainability

Chlorine-free, biodegradable, low carbon footprint

Chlorine by-products, higher environmental impact

What does Log 7 reduction mean?

Microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi don’t just sit on surfaces—they thrive inside biofilms within drains and pipework, where they are protected from standard cleaning.

Imagine starting with 10,000,000 microorganisms inside a drain:

  • A typical cleaner (Log 4–5) may still leave hundreds or thousands behind
  • SANI-99™ SteriDrain Pro (Log 7) reduces this to approximately 1 surviving organism

That’s the difference between temporary cleaning and near-total disinfection at the source.

How it Works

SANI-99™ SteriDrain Pro uses a multi-oxidant system to penetrate and disrupt biofilms—reaching pathogens hidden within slime layers inside drains and pipework. Once inside, it eliminates bacteria, viruses, fungi, and C. difficile spores, helping to reduce regrowth and remove odours at the source.

Chlorine-free, non-corrosive, and biodegradable, it delivers powerful disinfection while remaining safe for pipework, infrastructure, and the environment—unlike harsh acid or bleach-based cleaners.

How Fast Does SANI-99™ Work?

  • Bacteria (E. coli, Staph, Pseudomonas) — killed in 10–60 seconds.
  • Viruses (Norovirus, Coronaviruses, Influenza) — neutralised in under 5 minutes.
  • Fungi & Moulds (Candida, black mould) — destroyed in 15 minutes.
  • Spores (Clostridioides difficile) — eliminated with 15-minute contact time.

How to Use

Using SANI-99™ SteriDrain Pro in drains and pipework is quick and effective. It is specifically designed to penetrate biofilms and eliminate hidden contamination at the source.

  • Add 1 sachet directly into the drain or dissolve in 1 litre of warm water 
  • Allow 5–15 minutes contact time 
  • Flush through thoroughly with warm water

For routine maintenance, use regularly to help prevent biofilm build-up and odours. For heavy contamination or high-risk areas, use a higher dose or repeat treatment as required.

Note: For heavy biofilm or persistent odour build-up, carry out a deep treatment using 2 sachets, allowing at least 15 minutes contact time before flushing. Repeat weekly or as required to maintain control.

Pro Tips

Use regularly to help prevent odours and build-up

For stubborn smells or build-up, leave for 15 minutes before flushing 

Focus on U-bends and plugholes, where residue collects

Works well in kitchen and bathroom drains 

Always flush through with warm water after use 

Keep sachets handy for quick, mess-free dosing

Protect your home from hidden drain germs with proven disinfection.
