How To Pick The Right Barbicide Jar

By Randi Boyer


Barbicide is a disinfectant that is mostly used to disinfect tools used in a salon as well as other small equipment such as combs and scissors. It is important to disinfect such tools because they are usually used by many different people on a daily basis. This process is important to get rid of contaminants that might cause diseases and fungus. A barbicide jar can also be found in dental clinics, hospitals and other medical facilities.

Maurice King invented the disinfectant in 1947. It is said that he named the disinfectant barbicide because he hated barbers. James King his brother took the job of marketing it around the United States. In the modern day this disinfectant is found in many hospitals and salons all over the world. King research is the company that is responsible for manufacturing it. The Environmental Protection Agency in the United States has approved this disinfectant to be used in clinics and hospitals.

The disinfectant is strong enough to kill Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and HIV-1 virus. It is a fungicide, germicide, pseudomonacide and a viricide. When it comes to contact with the skin and eyes it causes irritation. If ingested, the solution can cause a persons body to go into shock. It can also lead to death if the person is not treated fast enough.

The solution is commonly stored in jars. Large jars are more common because they can accommodate large tools. Jars of all sizes can be found today. Professionals in salons and barbershops like to use small jars to dip hair pins, bobby pins and clips. It is advisable to soak equipment and tools after they have been used to ensure that the next person who uses them is safe.

The height of jars which are medium in size is about 8 inches. They are mostly used by professionals to disinfect scissors and combs in barbershops and salons. The medium jar has a tray which is easy to pull to make it possible to remove tools after they have been disinfected.

Large jars are easy to find. They have a capacity of up to 37 ounces of solution. They also have a tray to ease removal of disinfected tools. They are very flexible and that is why they are more preferred. They can be used to disinfect a wide range of tools.

The disinfectant is used to show cleanliness as well as sanitation. For decades it has been praised. Today it is found on the shelves of most barbershops and salons. It is used to dip tools when they have been used on one customer or after they have fallen to the floor. Compared to other disinfectants barbicide is superior because it retains its color and power for longer.

When deciding on a barbicide jar it helps to know what items you are going to disinfect. For personal use it is advisable to pick the medium or small sized jar. In case you would like to use the solution to clean spots and disinfect them then you can put it in a spray bottle.
