In care homes and hospitals, odor is part of the care picture. It comes from urinary and fecal incontinence (urea, ammonia, indole and skatole), from wound drainage, and from smells that set off nausea after chemotherapy. The chemical smell left behind by chlorine cleaners is a problem of its own.
Perfumed room sprays do not help here. They put a second strong smell into a room where older people with dementia, palliative patients or people with COPD are staying, and strong scents can bother them.
How does ODORGO PRO Odor Eliminator Spray work?
ODORGO PRO Odor Eliminator Spray 500 ml is fragrance-free. It is a water-based formula built on plant-derived essential oils (pine needle, anise, clove, cedarwood and lime). The oils attract odor molecules, both the acidic kind (sulfur compounds) and the basic kind (ammonia, amines), bind them and turn them into compounds that do not evaporate. The odor is not covered with another scent.
Where is it applied in a care setting?
| Area | Application |
|---|---|
| Room of a bedridden patient | Around the bed, curtains and carpet, daily |
| After incontinence care | Bed surface and floor, after the pad is changed |
| Hospice (palliative) room | Fragrance-free, because the patient is sensitive: a gel in place at all times, PRO spray when needed |
| Corridors outside the operating room (not the prep zones that open onto it) | While the space is empty, after the protocol is finished |
| Dental clinic waiting room | A gel in place at all times; PRO spray on the spot for heavy odor |
| Laboratory (formaldehyde, alcohol) | Bench surface and air circulation points |
How do you handle odor after incontinence care?
- Change the pad and clean the area following the facility's own procedure.
- Shake the PRO spray well and spray the bed surface and the floor.
- Leave the surface to dry. Repeat if the odor is still there.
- Keep an ODORGO Odor Eliminator Gel 250 g in the room, lid open, on a flat spot where it will not be moved.
If there is vomit or a smelly spill on the floor, clean the area first and then spray the surface directly. Do not spray toward the eyes, the face or an open wound.
The spray is water-based; you can use it on any surface that water does not harm. On water-sensitive fabrics and surfaces (unfinished or untreated wood, silk, leather, electronics, etc.), test on a small hidden area first.
Which product is used when people are in the room?
While patients, companions or staff are in the room, the two products used are the gel and the PRO spray. The gel needs no power or batteries; you open the lid and leave it standing flat and still.
Where the source never stops, such as drains, toilet blocks, waste rooms and laundry collection points, the answer is enough gel: at least one for every 15 m² (about 160 sq ft), and more at heavy spots. In enclosed areas of up to 15 m² a gel is used for up to 30 days. In large areas, PRO is added to the mopping water or to the tank of the floor-cleaning machine and used as part of the normal cleaning round.
How drain odor behaves is explained in the bathroom and drain odor guide, and the difference between binding an odor and masking it in why stubborn odors don't go away.
What does the formula contain?
The fragrance-free, phthalate-free, paraben-free, dye-free, sulfate-free, and alcohol-free claims are verified by tests conducted at laboratories accredited by TÜRKAK (Turkish Accreditation Agency) and ILAC (International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation). The PRO spray and the gel are vegan. Any light plant note you catch during spraying is gone shortly afterward, and no scent stays in the room.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is incontinence odor managed in a care home?
Apply ODORGO PRO Odor Eliminator Spray to the bed and floor surface after the pad is changed. The odor molecules in the mix of urea, ammonia, indole and skatole are captured and pass into a form that does not evaporate.
Should a perfumed product be used in a palliative patient's room?
No. A fragrance-free product is the better fit; ODORGO PRO Odor Eliminator Spray neutralizes the odor molecule without adding a perfume to the room.
What about the chlorine or alcohol smell left after the facility's cleaning round?
Once the round is finished, apply ODORGO PRO Odor Eliminator Spray to the air and the surfaces; it acts on the chemical odor molecule.
Is there anything to watch for around residents with dementia?
The spray is fragrance-free, so it brings no perfume into the room. Do not spray it toward the face.
Can it be used around the operating room?
Not inside. ODORGO is an odor eliminator only and is not a step in the infection-control protocol, so it is not used in operating rooms or in the prep zones that open onto them. In corridors outside, it can be used for odor while the space is empty and after the facility's own cleaning protocol is finished.
