Bulk alcohol programs are where cleanroom technique either holds the line—or quietly drifts. A 1-gallon format is efficient for refill stations and housekeeping carts, but it also introduces real-world risk: transfer steps, mislabeled secondary bottles, and inconsistent “wet coverage” from one operator to the next.

Sanihol 8601 is positioned for controlled environments where sterile alcohol is not required by SOP, but repeatable concentration and predictable handling still matter. SOSCleanroom has been a distributor of Decon for over 10 years supporting cleanrooms across the United States—helping teams standardize cleaning programs with dependable supply, fair pricing, and responsive service.

• Routine cleaning wipe-downs of hard, non-porous surfaces in labs and production areas where non-sterile alcohol is allowed.
• Refill programs for validated secondary bottles (trigger sprays, squirt bottles, and dispense systems) when you want a consistent 70% denatured ethanol blend.
• High-consumption applications in microbiology and tissue culture support areas where quick evaporation and low residue are operational priorities.
• General facility cleaning steps where you want a ready-to-use alcohol solution that evaporates away without a rinse step (confirm with your internal residue limits).

• High-throughput value: 1-gallon bottles reduce unit handling and support centralized dispensing.
• Particulate control: filtered to 0.2 microns to reduce particulate contamination contribution.
• Operational simplicity: ready-to-use 70% (v/v) denatured ethanol—no mixing steps, no dilution math on the floor.
• Documentation support: clear Technical Data Sheet and Safety Data Sheet that QA can reference for training, storage, and hazard controls.
• Program consistency: a stable, repeat-order alcohol option that helps prevent “substitute drift” across shifts and sites.

Sanihol 70 is a denatured ethanol solution specified at 70% (v/v) and filtered to 0.2 microns. The manufacturer’s technical data sheet lists the ingredients by volume as: 63.4% ethyl alcohol, 3.2% methyl alcohol, 3.4% isopropyl alcohol, and 30% USP purified water.

For facilities, the “build” is the repeatable blend plus the particulate filtration—useful when the goal is predictable evaporation behavior and a controlled residue profile. For hazard controls, note that the SDS explicitly highlights flammability and the presence of methanol—treat storage, dispensing, and point-of-use handling as a formal safety and quality control item.

Decon positions Sanihol 70 as a ready-to-use denatured ethanol solution for cleaning surfaces in labs and production areas, emphasizing complete evaporation with no rinse requirement and 0.2 µm filtration. For day-to-day operations, performance depends on three controllable variables: coverage, dwell behavior, and wipe discipline.

• Coverage matters more than “one quick spray.” Alcohol can flash off fast, especially on warm stainless, under laminar flow, or near HEPA returns.
• This is non-sterile. It is intended for areas where sterility is not required by your SOP; do not treat non-sterile alcohol as a substitute in aseptic/ISO 5 programs.
• Not an EPA-registered disinfectant claim set in the included sources. The referenced TDS focuses on cleaning use; align any “disinfection” language to your validated facility program and approved label/chemistry where required.
• Residue control is process-specific. Even when a solution evaporates away cleanly, your facility may still require a follow-up wipe or inspection step for critical surfaces.

• Packaging: 1 gallon bottles; 4 per case (catalog number 8601 listed on TDS and SOSCleanroom product page).
• Sterility: non-sterile (do not use where sterile alcohol is required).
• Traceability: use the label and case markings to record lot/expiration in your receiving log; the TDS notes the expiration date is printed on the product.
• Hazmat controls: SOSCleanroom lists a required hazmat fee of $35 per case added to shipping, ground shipping only, and commercial address only.
• Country of origin: not stated in the sources listed below.

The Sanihol 70 TDS describes a practical method: use in a well-ventilated area; spray or wipe until the surface is completely covered; allow to air dry; when using trigger spray, point away from eyes and skin; hold bottle six to eight inches from the surface. In a bulk format, add two facility-proven controls: secondary container governance and wipe technique discipline.

• Uncontrolled decanting: secondary bottles without lot/expiration traceability and fill-date controls.
• Evaporation drift: caps left off, partially closed spigots, or long-duration open handling that changes how the solution behaves in use.
• Inconsistent coverage: quick misting that never fully wets the surface, creating “clean-looking” but unevenly treated areas.
• Cross-contamination wiping: one wiper used too long across high-to-low risk zones, redistributing residue and bioburden.
• Wrong environment fit: non-sterile alcohol used in sterile/aseptic areas due to convenience rather than SOP and validation requirements.

Non-sterile 70% denatured ethanol is a common category. The meaningful differences are filtration, documentation clarity (TDS/SDS revision discipline), and how well the product supports bulk handling without process drift.

• VWR / Avantor 70% denatured ethanol offerings — commonly used lab/production alcohol products with comparable “clean and evaporate” positioning.
• Fisher Scientific channel 70% ethanol solutions — broad availability in lab environments; documentation and filtration details vary by private label and source.

Sanihol 8601 fits best in controlled environments that want a consistent alcohol blend for routine surface cleaning and wipe-downs, especially where bulk format supports throughput and cost-control without sacrificing documentation. It is also a practical choice for refill programs when your quality system has clear rules for secondary containers, labeling, and expiration governance.

For sterile or aseptic areas, use alcohol solutions that are explicitly specified as sterile by your SOP and qualification program. Non-sterile products belong where the facility’s contamination-control strategy and risk assessment allow them.
