EPA-registered product programs

Eligible hospital disinfectant programs can be sold under your brand through EPA supplemental distribution (sub-registration), subject to the registrant’s agreement, the applicable filing and approved labeling.

Plant-42 operates an EPA-registered pesticide-producing establishment. We can manufacture and package customers’ EPA-registered products at that establishment, subject to product, label and production review.

Application navigator

Start with what crews clean between runs.

A cabin interior, a medevac stretcher and ground-support equipment each have their own material and review requirements. Choose the workflow that matches your customer’s job. Include how crews apply the product, what water they need if they mix it on site, and how they restock.

Four starting points. Different requirements.

Your selection only changes this page and the links you choose to follow.

01 / FLEET

Start with the vehicle and its working day.

APPLICATION BRIEF

Start with the surfaces and equipment in a ground fleet or medevac workflow. Describe how crews prepare and apply the product between runs, then use that routine to define the product, package and replenishment plan.

Use locationProduct briefBuyer reviewSupply plan
  1. 01Use location
  2. 02Product brief
  3. 03Buyer review
  4. 04Supply plan

Planning framework / review steps are defined for the actual program.

  • Application boundaryName the vehicle area, substrate and task. Distinguish exterior, interior and workshop uses.
  • Operating methodDescribe dilution or preparation, equipment, contact conditions and the existing procedure.
  • Acceptance routeIdentify the maintenance lead, technical reviewer and purchaser who need to evaluate the proposal.
  • Commercial handoffDefine package preferences, demand estimates and receiving requirements for discussion.

Suitability belongs to the actual product, surface and procedure. A fleet use does not establish aircraft suitability.

02 / GROUND

Define the equipment around the operation.

APPLICATION BRIEF

Build the product conversation around the ground equipment or support workflow your customers use. Keep the equipment, maintenance task and operating location explicit so the technical and commercial review addresses the right job.

EquipmentUse methodReview ownerProgram scope
  1. 01Equipment
  2. 02Use method
  3. 03Review owner
  4. 04Program scope

Planning framework / review steps are defined for the actual program.

  • Equipment and materialsIdentify the equipment category, surfaces, seals or other materials relevant to the task.
  • Procedure and handlingShare preparation steps, application equipment and any instructions that constrain the proposed use.
  • Review responsibilityClarify who owns equipment care and which customer or manufacturer documents need to be considered.
  • Supply requirementsDiscuss package format, handling needs, estimated demand and destination.

A ground-support application is its own scope. It does not establish suitability for aircraft structures or systems.

03 / FACILITY

Separate the facility from the vehicle.

APPLICATION BRIEF

Airport, public transit, depot and hangar cleaning programs have their own requirements. Describe the facility surface, soil and maintenance task, then identify the product role and who approves its use.

  1. 01Site area
  2. 02Surface & task
  3. 03Use review
  4. 04Replenishment

Planning framework / review steps are defined for the actual program.

  • Use locationName the facility area and surfaces. State whether the task involves floors, work areas or equipment.
  • Product roleDescribe the intended cleaning or maintenance job and the procedure it would enter.
  • Site acceptanceIdentify the facilities, operations or purchasing reviewer and the documentation needed for evaluation.
  • Ongoing supplyBring package, storage, receiving and replenishment requirements into the brief.

Facility care is distinct from aircraft use. No antimicrobial, safety or environmental outcome is implied by this planning route.

04 / REVIEW

Put the intended use and acceptance gate first.

APPLICATION BRIEF

For an aviation distributor, supplier or aircraft cleaning partner, start with the exact use and the customer’s acceptance process. Establish the component or surface, applicable instructions and required review before treating a proposed product as a candidate.

Exact useRequirementsTechnical gateNext decision
  1. 01Exact use
  2. 02Requirements
  3. 03Technical gate
  4. 04Next decision

Planning framework / review steps are defined for the actual program.

  • Define the boundaryIdentify the component, surface or procedure and distinguish direct aircraft use from adjacent facility or ground work.
  • Bring the requirementsShare the relevant material information, customer specifications and manufacturer instructions.
  • Name the authorityIdentify who decides whether a product can be considered and which evidence or evaluation they require.
  • Agree the next decisionDefine the review scope before discussing development, production or supply commitments.

This is an application-review route, not a statement of aviation approval, OEM acceptance or aircraft compatibility. Those requirements must be established for the actual product and use.

Review gates

A clear route through the decisions.

Technical evaluation and purchasing are different decisions. Use these gates to identify the information and people needed for the next step.

01 / USEEstablish the application boundary.

Make the use location a shared reference before selecting a development or manufacturing route.

  • Product task and intended user
  • Substrates, components and known material restrictions
  • Preparation, handling and application method
02 / REVIEWDefine what acceptance requires.

A product brief should identify the customer’s decision process, rather than assume that suitability in one setting transfers to another.

  • Customer specifications and relevant equipment instructions
  • Evidence or evaluation the reviewer expects
  • Named technical reviewer and decision authority
03 / PROGRAMConnect the product to the purchase.

Bring the commercial buyer and service workflow into the same conversation as the technical requirements.

  • Supplier, distributor, service-provider or brand role
  • Package, forecast, receiving and replenishment needs
  • Scope, responsibilities and approvals to be agreed

The right next conversation

Choose the work your program needs.

Stay with Plant-42 for contract manufacturing, or continue to Florida Biotech when the next question belongs to contract engineering.

Each company’s scope, responsibilities and commercial arrangements are agreed for the project. Moving between these paths does not establish product approval, automatic acceptance or a production commitment.

The next stage / Contract Engineering

Continue this industry path with Florida Biotech.

Florida Biotech develops or refines the formulation around your surfaces, equipment and procedures. Plant-42 can then review the formula, water specifications, packaging and supply needs for manufacturing.
