Overview 

Cleaning is more than just removing visible dirt — it’s about protecting human health. While visual inspections can only go so far, ATP testing provides measurable, objective data to prove cleaning effectiveness. By detecting adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a molecule found in all living cells, this method helps ensure that cleaning protocols truly reduce biological contamination. Unlike visual checks, ATP testing delivers quantifiable results in seconds, making it a powerful tool for continuous improvement and data-driven cleaning validation.


KleenMark Overview 

With over six decades of expertise in cleaning services, KleenMark has consistently delivered exceptional cleaning and disinfecting solutions to meet their customers' needs. Previously, conventional ATP testing was part of their services in healthcare settings. However, it wasn’t until their partnership with Kikkoman that KleenMark discovered the Kikkoman A3 system. During a visit from the Kikkoman team, a side-by-side demonstration highlighted the advantages of the Kikkoman A3 over traditional ATP tests. Committed to achieving higher standards, KleenMark chose to adopt the Kikkoman A3 system to enhance their service quality.
