Understanding Enzymes and Odor Control
Enzymes are nature’s problem solvers. As specialized proteins, they accelerate chemical reactions that break down complex organic compounds into simpler, non-odorous byproducts. In cleaning, this translates to one key advantage: enzymes don’t just mask odors like perfumes or air fresheners—they eliminate the source. By digesting organic matter such as sweat, urine, food residue, grease, or mildew, enzymes neutralize the “fuel” that odor-causing bacteria rely on, ensuring long-lasting freshness in professional facilities.
PROZYM-X: A Professional Solution to Lingering Odors
PROZYM-X is a professional-grade enzymatic cleaner formulated with a high detergency non-ionic surfactant and a potent blend of natural enzymes. Unlike products that introduce live bacteria, PROZYM-X contains only enzymes, making it safer and more predictable for facility-wide use. When applied at ½ oz per quart (2 oz per gallon) for routine deodorizing, PROZYM-X penetrates surfaces, fabrics, and crevices where odors hide—completely eliminating them at the molecular level.
Chemical Action Meets Mechanical Action
Odor-causing residues often cling to surfaces, fabrics, or porous materials. PROZYM-X uses the chemical action of enzymatic digestion to break these residues down, while the mechanical action of wiping, mopping, extraction cleaning, or rinsing physically removes them. This dual-action approach ensures that even deep-seated odor sources—such as those found in carpets, grout, or upholstery—are fully eliminated rather than temporarily covered up.
Antimicrobial Benefits of Enzyme-Based Odor Control
While PROZYM-X is not a disinfectant, its ability to remove organic matter has an indirect antimicrobial benefit. By depriving bacteria of their nutrient source, enzymatic cleaning creates a less hospitable environment for the re-growth of odor-causing microbes. In effect, this helps to maintain cleaner, fresher-smelling surfaces without over-reliance on chemical disinfectants that can harm indoor air quality and contribute to resistant microbial strains.
SUMMATION: Reduce the available food for bacterial and fungal matter, you reduce the total microbes. Reduce the microbes and you reduce the potential for odor.
Applications for Professional Odor Elimination
PROZYM-X is trusted in a wide range of facilities where odor control is a daily challenge. Professional uses include:
- Healthcare & Nursing Homes – patient rooms, bedding, wheelchairs, bathrooms
- Daycare Centers & Schools – classrooms, nap mats, carpets, cafeteria areas
- Fitness Facilities – locker rooms, showers, equipment, mats
- Hospitality & Restaurants – kitchens, dining areas, trash rooms, upholstery
- Transportation – buses, trains, rideshares, upholstery and carpeted areas
- Commercial Offices – break rooms, restrooms, upholstered seating
- Residential Services – pet odors, smoke remediation, mildew and musty basements
A Safe and Sustainable Alternative
Because PROZYM-X is 100% natural and free of live bacteria, it provides professional cleaning teams with a safe and sustainable solution. It works without leaving toxic residues, harsh chemical smells, or irritants behind—making it suitable for use in environments with sensitive populations such as children, seniors, and pets.
The Advantage of Cleaning and Deodorizing in One Step
One of the greatest efficiencies of PROZYM-X is that it cleans and deodorizes simultaneously. Traditional methods often require two separate products—a cleaner to remove soils and a deodorizer to manage lingering smells. With PROZYM-X, enzymatic action dissolves organic residues while neutralizing the odors they cause, eliminating the need for multiple steps or redundant applications. This saves time, reduces chemical inventory, lowers costs, and delivers a more complete result—surfaces that are not only visibly clean but also naturally fresh.
