HoReCa Solutions
The HoReCa sector is one of the most demanding industries in terms of hygiene, sanitary safety, and responsibility toward guests.
Hotels, restaurants, commercial kitchens, catering services, and gastronomic facilities serve hundreds – often thousands – of people every day, operating in environments characterized by intensive contact with food, shared surfaces, textiles, and high user turnover.
High-Risk Areas and Daily Exposure
Tables, worktops, kitchens, back-of-house areas, hotel rooms, bathrooms, textiles, air-conditioning, and ventilation systems create conditions conducive to the growth of bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
A key challenge in HoReCa is that cleanliness must be not only effective, but also safe for people, odor-neutral, and invisible to the end guest.
Limitations of Conventional Chemical Cleaning
Today, the HoReCa sector relies heavily on intensive cleaning and disinfection chemicals.
Strong detergents, chlorine-based agents, alcohols, and biocidal products provide immediate visual results; however, their long-term use creates significant issues.
They often cause skin and respiratory irritation among staff, accelerate wear of surfaces and equipment, and leave chemical residues—an increasingly negative factor for health-conscious guests.
Short-Term Effectiveness and Operational Burden
Moreover, conventional disinfection typically works only temporarily.
Shortly after cleaning, surfaces become recolonized by microorganisms, especially in high-traffic areas.
This results in frequent, costly, and environmentally burdensome repetition of cleaning processes.
Graphene Oxide–Based CLEANTECH Solutions
In response to these challenges, INTERMERCATUS Biotech offers CLEANTECH solutions based on natural graphene oxide-based preparations, specifically designed for the HoReCa sector.
Our technology effectively eliminates bacteria, viruses, and fungi without the use of aggressive chemicals, while providing a long-lasting protective effect.
Application and Mechanism of Action
Graphene-based preparations, delivered as stable aqueous dispersions, can be applied to:
work surfaces
countertops and tables
floors
kitchens & BOH areas
bathrooms
hotel rooms
hotel and gastronomic textiles
They act through a physicochemical mechanism, limiting microbial recolonization without leaving toxic residues or affecting guest comfort.
Operational, Safety, and Image Benefits
The application of graphene technology in HoReCa delivers measurable operational benefits.
Reduced frequency of intensive chemical cleaning, lower detergent consumption, extended lifespan of equipment and surfaces, and decreased labor costs translate into real savings.
At the same time, staff safety improves and facilities strengthen their image as modern, responsible venues that prioritize guest health.
A New Standard of Cleanliness in HoReCa
CLEANTECH in the HoReCa sector represents a new standard of cleanliness.
It goes beyond the smell of chemicals and surface shine, focusing instead on real, long-lasting biological safety.
It is a solution for hotels, restaurants, and catering companies seeking to stay ahead of the competition by combining hygiene, sustainability, and advanced technology.
