DEFRA-Approved, Iodophor, Peracetic Acid & QAC Disinfectants
Different farm disinfection tasks require different active chemistries and formulations.
The category includes glutaraldehyde and QAC-based disinfectants such as GPC8 and Omnicide, iodophor disinfectants such as Fam 30 and V18, peracetic acid/peroxide-based products such as Peradox and Vanodox, and detergent-disinfectant formulations such as Vanoquat.

Some products in the category are also suitable for broader hygiene programmes, including dairy and food-processing applications, while others are more specifically positioned for agricultural biosecurity. For that reason, the page should focus on farm disinfectants and livestock biosecurity products while allowing individual product pages to carry the more specific technical and disease-related claims.
