Norwex Fresh Wash

Norwex Fresh Wash is used for general decontamination of fresh produce (fruits and vegetables), and can be applied at a 2% water-based solution by dipping, spraying or fogging.

This 2% indication is a fogging concentration term. It is used in mass production services in which a fogger with a commercial setting for post-harvest applications is used to clean the produce.  Customers using foggers know what this concentration means. 

To be most effective for household use, Norwex Fresh Wash can be mixed in a solution of 10 ml Fresh Wash to 500 ml water.  The spray nozzle allows for quick measuring.  It sprays about 2 ml per pump; therefore, 5-6 sprays per 500 ml of water requires less measuring! Mix solution and set produce in mixture for 3 to 5 minutes.  Lift out and consume - no need to rinse.
