With all the focus on VOC (volatile organic chemicals), it's important to know what you are using in your home and even what's in or on your food to make sure that it's truly clean and chemical/pesticide free. It's more than just being "green" or eco-friendly. It's called being smart-- because those chemicals can affect you, your family, your pets and even your plants (if they haven't died already) both outside and inside.

Tersano has launched the innovative Lotus® Sanitizing System™. The system, which infuses ordinary tap water with ozone to create a completely safe, natural cleaner and sanitizer, was named "Best Invention of 2006" by Time Magazine.Here's the technical version of what it does, dummied down a bit

"The System draws from technology widely used by progressive hospitals worldwide clean and sanitize surgical instruments. The compact household unit developed by Tersano converts the oxygen found in ordinary tap water into a "super" natural oxidant (ozone) using its unique, patented Oxyshield® technology. Ozone is a safe and natural sanitizer that is harmless to healthy cells. The resulting ozone-infused water has been proven highly effective as an all-purpose sanitizer for surfaces and other items, a powerful cleaner that removes stains, mold, mildew and odors, and a medium that neutralizes up to 99.9% of bacteria and pesticides on foods."

The ozonated water produced by the Lotus System kills germs on all kinds of surfaces - cutting boards, kitchen counters, stovetops, utensils, sinks, toilets, garbage cans or diaper pails. It is a great way to neutralize odors, get rid of tough stains (coffee, blood and pet accidents) and generally improve the way your house looks smells and will definitely improve the health of you and your family.
The Tersano product line also includes Systems with toothbrush bowls for sanitizing toothbrushes and dentures, as well as one with a baby bottle bowl that can be used for baby bottles, pacifiers and small toys.

The technology used in the Lotus Sanitizing System was four year in development, is backed with full EPA, FDA and OSHA and UL approval. The UL approval is because essentially no ozone is released into the atmosphere by the process.
