Cleaning with Effective Microorganisms

For hotel and home housekeeping, EM-1® applications will first reduce and eliminate odor in carpets, furniture, trash, etc. Second, it is also used to clean windows, mirrors, toilets, tubs, flooring, etc.

Benefits of EM-1®

  • In toilets and tubs EM-1® has an effect on salts that prevents them from binding to other substances, therefore, getting rid of the "ring".
  • EM-1® will cut down the use of detergent in laundry, eliminate odor, clean laundry better, and help drainage.
  • In swamp coolers or humidifiers, EM-1® will keep unit clean, eliminate odors and freshen the air you breath.

† If excess water from mop bucket is poured down drain, there should be no need for additional applications to the drains.

Dilution should be done as follows:
Example: 1 ounce EM-1® to 10 ounces water

Store EM-1® at room temperature (55 to 80 degrees F) and out of direct sun light. Chemicals such as bleach, ammonia, and anti-bacterial soap should be avoided before and after EM-1® use.

Pest control:
Spraying areas where pasts are a problem will prevent odor, which attracts flies and other vectors. Similarly, EM-1® will prevent putrefaction, which will, in time, eliminate the food source for ants, roaches, rats, and mice. These pests leave scent trails, through access point (crawl spaces, utility access both overhead, below and through walls) to return upon, and for others to follow. Periodically spraying these areas with EM-1® eliminates insect and rodent scent trails.

Available in 5 gallon, 55 gallon, and 1 gallon sizes ready-to-use (Activated EM-1®). 5 gallon pictured below.

Fats Oils and Grease

EM Technology® offers a unique approach to dealing with fats, oils, and grease. Instead of emulsifying them, as enzyme products do, EM-1® Microbial Inoculant will digest them, eliminating them from the system. During the natural fermentation process, over 50 different enzymes are produced by the microbes in EM-1®. Since there is no freeze drying or pasteurization of the EM-1®, all the enzymes are left in solution and continue to be produced by the live microbes in the culture. In regards to grease digestion, the most important of these enzymes are protease and lipase. Microbes use enzymes to accelerate the breakdown...

Corrosion Control

News image

Prevention of Rust On of the most damaging effects on equipment is rusting. Rust is an oxidation reaction. Moisture on metal is not a good thing when there are oxidizing agents around. Almost any cleaner used today is an oxidizer. Ammonia and bleach will oxidize metals, causing rusted equipment, thereby increasing operations costs over time. Antioxidants reverse oxidation (that is what the "anti" means). Antioxidants are chelated minerals and vitamins. EM-1® is fermented with cane molasses. Cane molasses have roughly 40 different trace minerals. The microbes in EM-1® will synthesize various bio-available vitamin compounds (including B complex and Vitamin A)...
