New pour-before-you-go formulation, Oxi-Odor Eliminator, is ideal for the office, dorms, homes, hotels and much more
BALTIMORE, March 18 /PRNewswire/ -- For people who dread entering -- or leaving -- a shared bathroom because of unpleasant and embarrassing personal odors, inventor Eric McGill has the solution: Oxi-Odor Eliminator. McGill's background in biology and chemistry, as well as the motivation generated by a complaining wife and a myriad of anecdotes of shared restroom experiences, led him to the solution, which is ideal not only for offices, dorms, hotels, churches and other places where people congregate but also for couples and families living in close quarters.
"It is not uncommon for couples sharing one-bathroom apartments, for example, to face stress over this problem. I have a scientific background," McGill explains, "and so I experimented until I came up with the ideal formulation to solve the problem."
The result was Oxi-Odor Eliminator (now known by its brand name FREE! Oxi- Odor Eliminator), the first invention of its kind. McGill's first patent was issued in 2000. Since then, McGill developed the product and formed Shared Restrooms Hygiene Products, Inc. in 2005.
The consumer product is licensed to McGill's partners, Castle Rock Innovations of Colorado, who recently launched the product under the brand name FREE! Oxi-Odor Eliminator through a national direct response television campaign. The direct response TV spot, which shows the product in action, can be seen online at http://www.freefromodor.com/ .
Shared Restrooms Hygiene Products, Inc. retains rights for all commercial markets for the product, including hospitality, janitorial/sanitary supply, restroom hygiene services and promotional items. "We are actively looking for partners in these areas," he said.
Oxi-Odor Eliminator is a powerful and effervescent oxygen-releasing formula ("You can see it working," notes McGill) that destroys odor molecules through direct application in the toilet bowl -- before they leave the toilet bowl -- and prevents lingering odors.
"It's so easy to use," says McGill. "Just pour or dispense Oxi-Odor Eliminator formulation into the toilet water right before using the bathroom and it will dissolve instantly. The toilet water is instantly transformed to a safe odor-controlling and toilet bowl cleaning solution. Oxi-Odor Eliminator is highly effective because it also destroys odor-causing compounds in the head space of the toilet above the waterline."
McGill says Oxi-Odor Eliminator is ideal for multiple settings: home, school, the office, dorm rooms, hotel rooms, restaurant restrooms, places of worship and while traveling. "The workplace is one area where people are particularly concerned about bathroom odors. Think about it -- you have to face your coworkers daily in the meeting room, the breakroom and the boardroom. You don't want your name to be immediately associated with the restroom. It might be funny on sitcoms and in comedic movies, but the truth is, we all want to project professionalism in the workplace," states McGill.
He adds that Oxi-Odor Eliminator is extremely helpful for those suffering from lactose intolerance, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Crohn's disease or chronic diarrhea.
Oxi-Odor Eliminator is available in boxes of convenient single packets at http://www.freefromodor.com/ .
