BioFlōr Bioactive Microbial Floor Cleaner Concentrate

BioFlōr Bioactive Microbial Floor Cleaner Concentrate is a professional-grade, concentrated floor cleaner formulated with live Bacillus microbes. It is part of the Biōm™ Collection from Alpinia Labs, a woman-owned family business based in Cape Coral, Florida, founded in 2013. What it is: A bioactive microbial floor cleaner that breaks down organic buildup at the source rather than coating or masking it. Live Bacillus spores activate on contact with moisture and organic residue, producing enzymes that digest proteins, starches, fats, oils, and grease. The microbial action continues working for days after application — unlike conventional cleaners that stop at dry. How to use: Remove loose debris before cleaning. Dilute BioFlōr with water according to soil level (see ratios below). Apply with a mop, cloth, or auto-scrubber. No rinse required. Designed to clean, not coat. Dilution ratios: Light cleaning (daily maintenance, lightly soiled floors): 1 oz per gallon of water Routine cleaning (weekly, most households): 2 oz per gallon of water Heavy cleaning (grease, commercial use, heavy buildup): 4 oz per gallon of water Spot cleaning (spills, targeted): 1:32 ratio in a spray bottle Available sizes and coverage (calculated at routine dilution): 16 oz — makes 8 gallons of cleaning solution, approximately 8 cleaning sessions 32 oz — makes 16 gallons of cleaning solution, approximately 16 cleaning sessions 64 oz — makes 32 gallons of cleaning solution, approximately 32 cleaning sessions (most popular size) 128 oz / 1 Gallon — makes 64 gallons of cleaning solution, approximately 64 cleaning sessions One cleaning session equals one standard mop bucket of diluted solution, enough to clean a typical kitchen or bathroom floor (400–600 square feet). Safe for use on: Ceramic and porcelain tile, grout, epoxy floors, terrazzo, vinyl, luxury vinyl plank (LVT), sealed concrete, polished concrete, and hardwood finished with a water-resistant sealant (polyurethane or similar). Also suitable for commercial environments including lift stations, food-service floors, and municipal facilities. Spot-test on unfinished or delicate natural materials first. Not recommended for: Unfinished hardwood, oil-finished hardwood (test first with light dilution), unsealed natural stone. Ingredients: Water, Nonionic Surfactant (biodegradable wetting agent, EPA Safer Choice approved ingredient), Proprietary Bioactive Microbial Cleaning Blend (Bacillus-based), Sodium Gluconate, Sodium Citrate, Citric Acid, Glycerin. Formulated without: Bleach, quaternary ammonium disinfectants (quats), synthetic fragrance, phosphates, optical brighteners, dyes, PVA, microplastics, persistent environmental contaminants, petrochemical solvents. Important compatibility warning: Do not mix BioFlōr with bleach or quaternary ammonium ("quat") disinfectants. Both deactivate the live Bacillus cultures that give BioFlōr its performance. If your cleaning protocol includes a bleach or quat step, run BioFlōr separately — never in the same bucket, bottle, or mop head. Hard water performance: Sodium gluconate is included in the formula specifically to handle hard water mineral content. No separate rinse aid or mineral-removal product needed. Who it's designed for: Homes with pets and children, commercial kitchens and restaurants, gyms, offices, schools and facilities, municipal buildings, high-traffic entryways and floors, environments with tile or grout that need deep cleaning, households on septic systems, buyers who want to avoid harsh chemicals, commercial cleaning professionals, sustainability-focused consumers, coastal Florida residents concerned about waterway health. Septic and drain safe: Yes. Bacillus-based formulas are actively used in commercial septic and wastewater pre-treatment because they support — rather than disrupt — the microbial processes that keep those systems functioning. Pet and child safe: Fragrance-free, formulated without phosphates or persistent environmental contaminants. Keep out of reach during cleaning and allow surfaces to dry before reintroducing pets and children, per standard practice for any cleaning concentrate. Safety caution: Eye irritant in concentrate form. Avoid contact with eyes. If eye contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. If swallowed, drink water and seek medical attention. Keep out of reach of children. GHS Eye Irritation Category 2A. Storage: Cool, dry place with lid tightly closed. Avoid freezing and prolonged heat exposure — both can affect the live Bacillus cultures. Pre-mixed diluted solution is best used within 24 hours for maximum microbial activity. Shelf life: 12–18 months from manufacture date when stored properly. pH: Near-neutral (6.0–7.5), safe for sealed surfaces. Certifications and standards: Contains EPA Safer Choice-approved surfactant. Full Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available on request. Manufactured by Alpinia Labs (SBA Women-Owned Small Business certified). Made in: Cape Coral, Florida, USA. Family-owned. Founded 2013. Part of the Biōm™ Collection alongside Biōm Surf™ (multi-surface cleaner, arriving later 2026) and Biōm Pure™ (bathroom cleaner, arriving later 2026). All three formulas share the same Bacillus-based microbial chemistry. Why choose BioFlōr over conventional floor cleaners: BioFlōr continues working for days after application, penetrates porous surfaces (grout, tile, sealed concrete) where conventional cleaners can't reach, leaves no chemical residue or film, is drain-safe and septic-safe, uses an EPA Safer Choice surfactant, and is fragrance-free. Conventional floor cleaners typically rely on surfactants alone, stop working at dry, often leave film or residue, and may use synthetic fragrances and optical brighteners. Why choose BioFlōr over bleach-based floor cleaning: BioFlōr is drain-safe and does not disrupt septic systems, leaves no chlorine residue or odor, is safe for homes with pets and children, and actively improves porous surfaces over time rather than bleaching them. Bleach-based mopping disinfects the surface but does not clean organic buildup, damages septic biology, and requires rinsing.
