World’s First Natural Non-Toxic Water Steriliser Now Available

Onepure Water Steriliser

Up to now, all water sterilisers on the market have been toxic. Onepure Water Steriliser by SJK Products is totally natural and non-toxic and carries NO health warnings.

Crawley, West Sussex – SJK Products Ltd today launched the latest in their range of environmentally-friendly and health-focused products; the totally natural and non-toxic water steriliser: Onepure Water Steriliser.

Water sterilising products on the market, up to now, such as sterilising tablets or sterilising fluids - used by mothers to sterilise baby’s bottle and on boats and caravans to make drinking water ‘safe’ - are made from household bleach which is held together as crystals by salt.

Yet bleach - sodium hypochlorite – is a known carcinogen (cancer inducing substance) and existing water sterilising tablets and fluids carry health warnings accordingly, as follows: ‘Corrosive’, ‘Irritant’, ‘Oxidising’, ‘Harmful’, and they are also dangerous for the environment. There is a chemical alternative to chlorine - Hydrogen peroxide - which is where the term ‘peroxide blondes’ comes from. It is also used as rocket fuel. Yet here in Europe, people add it to their drinking water; it is deemed “not fit for human consumption” in the USA.

Onepure Water Steriliser is a new, inexpensive and natural alternative, made from Seville orange pith, olives and tree bark. It is both tasteless and non toxic and delivers purified drinking water for less than 1p per litre, which compares very well with bottled water. Onepure has been tested and proven as stable i.e. contaminated water remains in perfect drinking condition for not less than 28 days. With chlorine-based products, the water remains stable for only 4-6 hours.

The fact that Onepure Water Steriliser is not chemical based (unlike existing products) is very good news for asthma sufferers because the link between exposure to chlorine and asthma, especially among young children, is now well established. Chlorine-based chemicals also damage on-board water pumps by corroding their seals. Onepure Water Steriliser not only purifies, but it is also softens the water, preventing the build up of scale in water heater systems. So an added benefit of using Onepure Water Steriliser on boats, trains, caravans, motorhomes and aeroplanes etc is a significant reduction in maintenance costs.

Tim Jones, SJK Products’ chairman, summarises Onepure Water Steriliser’s benefits:

“Onepure’s water purifier is unique because it:

• Is only made from natural ingredients.
• Keeps water systems sterilised and the water purified for up to 28 days, continuously, once treated.
• Kills 99.98% of known germs and viruses.
• Can be safely used in water tanks in caravans and boats etc, for purifying hikers' water bottles and for sterilising babies’ bottles, dummies and plastic toys.
• Breaks down and prevents future growth of harmful biofilm and germs in the tank, pipes, pumps and filters of water systems - thereby extending their life and reducing maintenance costs.

Existing water sterilising products may contain:

• Chlorine - a known carcinogen which takes 4-6 hours to break down.
• Hydrogen Peroxide – used to bleach the hair of ‘peroxide blondes; as rocket fuel, and deemed “Not fit for human consumption” in the USA.
• Other chemicals (such as iodine), some of which leave a nasty aftertaste or have to be neutralised with yet more chemicals.”

SJK Products Launches Onepure-handgel, the Alcohol-Free, 100% Natural Sanitising Hand Gel

f.
Based on a 900-year Old Formula: This combination of natural ingredients was originally discovered in the 12th century by Genghis Khan’s Mongol Empire. Its efficacy in killing germs may have been a major contribution towards bringing about the Mongol Empire’s military supremacy.

A 50ml bottle of Onepure-handgel

Crawley, West SussexSJK Products, well known for its range of waterless vehicle washing products, today, has ventured into new territory by launching yet another waterless product; this time to wash your hands rather than your car.

Onepure-handgel is a novel, alcohol-free, naturally derived, non-toxic, unperfumed and skin-moisturising product which is more effective than any alcohol-containing hand sanitisers on the market today, killing over 99.998% of all potentially infectious organisms i.e. bacteria, fungi, yeasts and viruses. It also gives superior protection against influenza A (flu) viruses, 99.998% of which it can kill in under 1 minute. (Full list of pathogens that Onepure-handgel is effective against is available upon request).

In fact, it has been proven in tests that Onepure-handgel is 100 times more effective at killing germs and viruses (such as E Coli, MRSA, HIV virus and all known influenza viruses), than chemical-based hand gels. It is manufactured from naturally derived ingredients: orange pith, olives and tree bark – the exact same ingredients used by the Mongol Empire during the 12th century. The Mongols had discovered that the combination of these indigenous ingredients, when applied to a wound, could not only sterilise the injury thus preventing the onset of infection, but also protect against any new infections developing for many hours after. Thus, during battles, many warriors made a rapid recovery, and were able to carry on fighting.

Today, Onepure-handgel is ideal for use wherever there is risk of infection from contaminated hands – particularly relevant to the current Swine Flu epidemic. It has the extra benefit of a long-lasting residual effect, and is the only hand gel that provides protection for more than 4 hours after application, (compared to alcohol-based hand gels which give protection for only 4 seconds). Therefore, 2 applications of Onepure-handgel per day in the workplace or at school give a full day’s protection against all known flu viruses.

Indirect benefits from Onepure-handgel is reduced soap and water consumption, and since the product is self-drying, there is no need for linen or paper towels nor hot air blowers to dry the hands – thus representing a significant cost saving and reduced use of energy and resources.

“As you can see, despite moving into a completely new market niche, our new product has managed to maintain the ‘waterless’ theme. But we are very excited about this new venture - especially as we will be helping to prevent the spread of disease,” says Tim Jones, Chairman.

Onepure-handgel has been dermatologically tested and is suitable for use with sensitive skin and it even moisturises the skin, whereas alcohol-based hand gels have the adverse effect and dry the skin out. In addition, the product has more than a decade of academic endorsements behind it, and has been approved by the Department of Health (HPA), NHS, DEFRA, EU Organic Farming, EN and Halal Food Authority.
