Don’t Let Urine Stains and Odors Tarnish Your Reputation
Tough-to-clean urine stains and odors can make an otherwise clean facility seem unappealing and dirty, despite the hard work of cleaning staff. Without the right product, staff may need to spend extra time cleaning urine or, worse, allow urine odors and stains to remain. |
Odor is the leading cause of poor restroom experiences.
- 72% of U.S. adults consider bad smell as the #1 cause of “awful restroom experience.”¹

What causes urine odors?
|
Urine odor comes from naturally occurring bacteria and uric acid crystals (crystalized urine residue). Porous damp surfaces host the bacteria, which feed on urine. Uric acid crystals often remain trapped in these porous surfaces and release a strong ammonia-like odor as the bacteria consume the urine. Humid conditions or wetting the surface can also reactivate the odor. |
Clorox® Urine Remover tackles both stains and odors
- Quickly addresses short- and long-term odors
Clorox® Urine Remover uses hydrogen peroxide to remove uric acid crystals and breaks down odor at its source.
- Effectively removes stains
Cleans urine stains better than enzymatic cleaners* with surfactants, solvent and a low pH.
- Minimal training required
Can be used before or after other cleaning products. Very low surface safety concerns. Does not contain bleach.

Dilutable Bathroom Cleaners don’t eliminate long-term odors Uric acid crystals remain, creating long-term odors
Dilutable GBCs typically contain less than .5% of their active ingredient after dilution and may not completely remove stubborn uric acid crystals, which will release a strong ammonia-like odor when rewet.
Not for use on soft surfaces like carpet or mattresses
|
Enzymatic Cleaners perform poorly on stains
Less effective on stains
Enzyme cleaners use living microorganisms to “eat” uric acid crystals and smelly bacteria. These cleaners are typically formulated at a neutral pH to be compatible with the living bacteria and do not clean urine stains as effectively.*
Easily misused
If an antibacterial or high/low pH product is used before or after, the enzymes may be neutralized
