The Probiotic Revolution: How this is Changing Corporate Cleaning
Learn about the groundbreaking probiotic cleaning technology that's setting new standards for effectiveness and sustainability.
The commercial cleaning industry is experiencing a revolutionary shift. For decades, maintaining clean workspaces has relied on harsh chemicals designed to eliminate all microorganisms. But this approach may be fundamentally flawed—both environmentally and scientifically. At SeaClean, we're leading the probiotic cleaning revolution that's transforming corporate environments across Ireland.

What is Probiotic Cleaning
Traditional cleaning products work by killing bacteria and dissolving dirt through chemical action. While effective short-term, this creates several problems:
​
-
Contributes to antimicrobial resistance
-
Damages surfaces over time
-
Leaves harmful chemical residues
-
Creates temporary sterility that harmful bacteria quickly recolonize
​
​
Probiotic cleaning is different. Instead of creating sterile environments, probiotic cleaners introduce beneficial bacteria that continue working long after application.
These "good" bacteria establish themselves on surfaces, outcompeting harmful pathogens for resources and space.
Competitive Exclusion
Enzymatic Action
​Biofilm Destruction
Beneficial bacteria colonize surfaces and consume the same resources harmful bacteria need, effectively starving out pathogens through natural competition.
The bacteria produce enzymes that break down organic matter—dirt, grease, proteins—for up to 72 hours after application. Surfaces stay cleaner longer with less frequent cleaning required.
