Stay Fresh Slow Release
Stay Fresh has revolutionized the odor elimination indus-
try by combining two granular products that create a pow-
erful oxidizing gas CI02 (Chlorine Dioxide). These two ma-
terials eliminate the need for expensive equipment mak-
ing them a safe, reliable, simple and affordable malodor
eliminator. Stay Fresh effectively destroys both sulfur and
nitrogen based odors associated with decaying flesh,
urine, garbage, smoke and musty smells. It is especially
effective in smoking rooms, refrigerators, athletic rooms,
dumpsters, vehicles, laundry bins, athletic equipment,
STAY FRESH
laundry rooms, pet rooms and banquet rooms. Stay Fresh
destroys and absorbs odors rather than masking them.
