Effectiveness of OCC Switzerland's Products Against the Swine Flu Virus

This is a preliminary statement addressing the effectiveness of OCC Switzerland's products in light of the recent outbreak of the swine flu.

Since many of the attributes of this virus are yet to be determined, OCC Switzerland is not yet in a position to issue any official statements. However, based on the make-up of this virus (an enveloped virus similar to the human influenza virus or the avian flu virus), we expect to be fully effective against this microorganism with all of our Class IIa disinfection products, (including surface, instrument and special equipment disinfectants) and our hand disinfectants. 

We are working diligently on additional research and will release an official statement just as soon as our tests have been concluded.
