A revolutionary laundry system which kills all bacteria on all wash cycles has been developed by JLA. The OTEX system works by injecting ozone into the wash process and kills all Super bugs – including so-called Superbugs such as MRSA and C. diff – on all wash cycles.
The OTEX System is now in many Care homes and Hospitals around the country.
