Bacti-Foam Antimicrobial Foaming Soap

Bacti-Foam is Ecolab's foaming antimicrobial hand soap built for high-traffic handwashing in hospitals, clinics, long-term care, and food-service environments. The active ingredient is benzalkonium chloride (BZK) at 0.5% strength — an alcohol-free antiseptic that reduces bacteria on the hands while staying gentle enough for the frequent washing that clinical staff face throughout a shift. Its rich foam formula spreads quickly, rinses clean, and carries a light floral scent that keeps hand hygiene from feeling like a chore.

The product we stock is the Bacti-Foam 750 mL Dispenser Refill Bottle (Ecolab 6000230), a blue foaming soap sized to fit Nexa Classic and Nexa Compact dispensers. If you're running Ecolab's Nexa hand-hygiene program, this is the matched refill — no adapters, no guesswork on compatibility. Because it foams from a sealed refill rather than a bulk pour, you get consistent dosing per pump, less product waste, and lower risk of contamination compared with topping off open reservoirs.

Buyers usually ask two things: is it alcohol-free, and will it hold up to repeated daily use? Yes on both — the BZK base means no drying alcohol bite, which matters for staff washing dozens of times a day. Order refills by the case to keep every dispenser stocked and your hand-hygiene compliance steady.
