Enzymatic Cleaner — Glossary
A cleaner that uses enzymes to break down the organic residues carrying odor — addresses the source rather than the smell.
Enzymatic cleaners use enzymes — biological catalysts — to break down the organic residue producing an odor. Rather than covering the smell, they act on the material releasing it, breaking it into smaller, less odorous compounds.
They’re the standard approach for pet urine and organic accidents because they target the residue that plain soap and fragrance leave behind.
