Imagine the only water you have to give your child may KILL them. Millions of parents face this horrific possibility every single day
- Globally, almost 2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water.
- An estimated 2,000 children under the age of five die every day from causes linked to contaminated water.
- At least 1.8 billion people use a drinking-water source contaminated with faeces.
- In low- and middle-income countries, 38% of health care facilities such as lack a clean water source.
- It is estimated that by 2025, half of the world’s population will be living in water-stressed areas.

Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) can change this
The outcomes we are striving to achieve are:
- Be able to provide the means and knowledge by which human pathogens can be removed from drinking water wherever such contamination is a problem.
- To provide the means and knowledge by which low standards of hygiene in badly affected areas can be raised.
- Increase the public awareness of HOCl and its uses (HOCl is the chemical symbol for Hypochlorous acid)
- Provide the recipe for simple, cost effective manufacture on a domestic level.
We know we can help!
HOCl is a dilute aqueous chlorine solution with a mildly acidic pH ranging between 5 and 6.5 (skin neutral). It forms the basis for the HOCl Trust. HOCl is a NON-TOXIC sterilizing fluid. All human beings and animals use blood as their life support system. HOCl is generated within the white blood cells that form a major part of the immune system. It is triggered into action when the body is attacked by the threat of infection.
