6. Why should I use Supernova instead of alcohol hand gels?

Supernova has many advantages over alcohol based products:

• Alcohol gels do not kill spores or non enveloped viruses. Supernova is effective against spores and viruses such as Clostridium difficile, and Norovirus.

• Alcohol gels often contain in excess of 70% alcohol which can irritate skin causing hands to crack and bleed. Supernova is alcohol free which means it won’t dry or crack hands.

• Alcohol gels have no residual protection, Supernova is proven effective up to 30 minutes after its application.

• Alcohol gels often have religious implications, Supernova is alcohol free

• Alcohol gels used in public places can be stolen and drank by alcoholics, Supernova is alcohol free and is therefore of no interest to alcoholics.

• Alcohol gels are flammable and can be used as a way of inflicting damage to people or property. Supernova is non flammable and therefore can not be used in this way.
