a companion animal clinical setting.

Customer/Industry

Companion Animal

Location

ARKLE Veterinary Care

Indoor Coverage Area

2,777 ft2

Customer Goals

Ensuring a clean, safe, and infection-free environment in veterinary clinics is essential for both animal and human health.

This site wanted to support the health and safety of patients, staff, and visitors between manual cleaning events. They deployed Synexis DHP® technology and measured effectiveness using adenosine triphosphate (ATP) testing.

Challenges

  • Persistent pet odors, airborne pathogens, and the risk of spreading illness among staff and clients

Solution

10 Synexis® devices deployed

Key Observations

  • Minimal odor presence throughout the facility. Faster odor dissipation following procedures was also observed.
  • Reduced illness spread. The clinic owner observed that despite an employee contracting the flu, it did not spread to others, marking a significant improvement in workplace health.
  • Peace of mind. The team feels confident they are doing everything possible to safeguard their patients and staff, knowing that Synexis technology is always working in the background.

Results

Long-term testing of surface samples at the clinic revealed an 88% reduction in ATP (Relative Light Units, RLU) over 313 days, demonstrating the effectiveness of DHP® technology.

Implications For Veterinary Clinics

Clinics integrating DHP® Technology can expect:

Improved hygiene &
infection control
Enhanced staff well-
being & reduced illness
spread
Odor reduction for a
more pleasant client
experience
A safer, cleaner
veterinary environment

We have used the Synexis® System for almost 5 years now. Knowing the Synexis System is working in the background helps us feel confident we are doing everything possible to protect our patients and staff.
We haven’t had a case where we know that a patient developed a respiratory illness directly from our facility.
