A recharge insert, for use with a spray dispenser device, is made of a matrix material impregnated with a chemical composition that is made dry-to-the-touch and is held in place by a porous three-dimensional polyethylene film that prevents direct skin contact, while allowing the chemical composition to be dissolved in solution with a diluent fluid such as water. When the spray bottle is filled with water, sealed, and shaken, the fluid penetrates into the matrix material, and the chemical composition becomes dissolved in solution, thereby creating a cleaning, sanitizing or disinfectant solution that will remain stable and fully active in use. The recharge insert may be engaged with an insert locating adapter as may be desired.

Recharge insert for cleaning, sanitizing or disinfectant fluid spray system

A personal skin cleansing wipe comprising a flexible substantially dry matrix formed from synthetic, woven, non-woven or knitted fibers impregnated with a substantially anhydrous antimicrobial, antiseptic, antifungal solution in an amount wherein the matrix retains its substantially dry characteristics and the treatment solution includes an amount of PVP-iodine as active in solution in glycol and or glycerin. The treatment solution, in addition to an effective amount of PVP-iodine as active, contains surfactants, preferably Tego&#xae; Betaine CK D, and optionally a compatible fragrance and/or moisturizer. The wipe is activated with water just prior to use.

Dry antiseptic wipes comprising an amphoteric surfactant

Liquid spray bottle

A recharge sleeve for use with a spray dispenser device, made of a matrix comprises an absorptive material impregnated with a chemical composition that dissolves in solution created when the sleeve is contacted with a diluent fluid such as water. The recharge sleeve is elongated in shape with a center opening parallel to the long edges of the sleeve for mounting on the diptube of the spray dispenser device. A conically shaped retainer formed of rigid plastic is attached or provided for attachment to the lower end of the diptube for stabilizing the diptube and retaining the recharge sleeve clear of the bottom of the retainer after the sleeve has been applied to the diptube. When of the spray dispenser device is sealed and the spray dispenser device is shaken, the fluid penetrates into the matrix material, and the chemical composition dissolves in the fluid creating a cleaning, sanitizing, or disinfectant solution that will remain stable and fully active in use.

Retainer for sleeve for recharging a cleaning, sanitizing or disinfectant fluid spray system

A cleaning wipe comprising a multi layer needlepunched fabric wherein the fabric is impregnated with a cleaning composition.

Multilayer cleaning wipe

A recharge insert, for use with a spray dispenser device, is made of a matrix material impregnated with a chemical that is dry-to-the-touch and becomes dissolved in solution with a diluent fluid such as water. The recharge insert is formed in an elongated cylindrical shape with a center opening for mounting on the standard plastic downtube of the spray dispenser device. The insert sleeve may be formed with a side slit to open and wrap it around the downtube. When the spray bottle is filled with water, sealed, and shaken, the fluid penetrates into the matrix material, and the chemical composition becomes dissolved in solution, thereby creating a cleaning, sanitizing or disinfectant solution that will remain stable and fully active in use. The matrix material can be mounted on a hollow tubular carrier with lower spacer legs, or affixed to an upper retaining disk that is seated on the container neck for holding the insert clear of the lower intake end of the tube.

A substantially flexible, dry matrix with antimicrobial properties is made from a matrix comprising natural or synthetic, woven, non-woven or knitted fibers, said matrix having been uniformly coated with an amount of a non-aqueous treatment solution sufficient to allow said matrix to retain its substantially dry characteristics. In a preferred embodiment, said non-aqueous treatment solution has between about 70% and 99% of at least one glycol compound, between about 1% and 15% of a PVP-iodine and optionally between about 0 and 15% of a non-ionic surfactant. Also, skin is treated to prevent disease, such as the disinfecting of teats on dairy cows during milking, by wiping the skin with the article.
