Wayne Kinsey, President and CEO of Benchmark, stated, “Recently, we’ve seen a significant, growing demand for Excelyte®. While this growth started for us in the oil and gas industry, we’ve seen a number of new applications for Excelyte® that include the hospital and medical industries, professional sports, schools and universities, and grocery store chains.” Excelyte® has been proven effective against scores of bacterial and viral pathogens, i.e. H1N1 (“swine flu”), methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (“MRSA”), E. coli and Salmonella.
