Force of Nature is a federal EPA registered Hospital disinfectant proven to kill 99.9% of bacteria & viruses**, including Norovirus, Salmonella, Influenza A, Staph, MRSA, Listeria & Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. The federal EPA has registered Force of Nature for sanitizing and disinfecting hospitals, ICUs, medical clinics, daycares, schools, restaurants & veterinary clinics & more. The EPA registration number is 93040-1.

The EPA registers 3 types of disinfectants based on their germ-killing efficacy: Limited, Broad-Spectrum, and Hospital. Force of Nature is EPA registered as a Hospital disinfectant. Limited disinfectants are effective against only a specific major group of microorganisms (such as gram-positive or gram-negative bacteria). Broad-spectrum disinfectants are effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Hospital disinfectants are broad-spectrum disinfectants that are also effective against the nosocomial bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Force of Nature also meets surface disinfection requirements for OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogens Standards.

Force of Nature is on  EPA’s List N, the disinfectants approved for use against SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19 . Force of Nature has demonstrated effectiveness against viruses harder to kill than SARS-CoV-2 on hard, non-porous surfaces. Therefore, Force of Nature can be used against COVID-19 when used in accordance with the directions for use against Norovirus on hard non-porous surfaces.  "EPA expects all products on List N to kill all strains and variants of SARS-CoV-2. Genetic changes to the virus do not impact the efficacy of disinfectants" . See  EPA Emerging Pathogen Policy info.

To receive federal EPA registration, the product is tested using extremely rigorous EPA required anti-microbial testing protocols across multiple batches of product. Suppliers, purity, concentration & processing of all individual ingredients must be approved, with strict statistical limits on all. EPA state registration information  here .
