F10 Hand Gel 500ml – Waterless Reptile Keeper Hand Sanitiser

F10 Hand Gel 500ml is a waterless skin decontaminant designed for reptile keepers, vets, and anyone handling exotic animals where access to a washbasin isn't always practical. A 1ml application to the hands delivers rapid, broad-spectrum decontamination without water — making it a straightforward addition to any vivarium or terrarium routine.

Active Formula

Built on the same core actives as F10 SC disinfectant, this gel combines F10's proven biocidal chemistry with 35% alcohol. The result is a kill rate exceeding log6 — that's a reduction in microbial cell counts greater than one million times — with a fast-drying finish that doesn't leave hands feeling sticky or wet.

Broad-Spectrum Protection

The formula works across a wide range of pathogens, making it suitable for use between handling different animals, after cleaning vivariums and terrariums, or any time cross-contamination is a concern with exotic pets. It acts quickly, so decontamination doesn't slow down your routine.

Residual Cover

F10 Hand Gel 500ml doesn't simply evaporate and leave nothing behind. It forms a persistent residual layer on the skin — sometimes described as an invisible barrier — that continues to provide protection after the initial application has dried.

Skin Compatibility

Higher emollient levels than many standard hand gels mean this formula is genuinely kinder to the skin, even with the frequent use that comes with daily animal husbandry. Repeated application throughout reptile keeping sessions is less likely to cause the dryness or irritation associated with alcohol-based sanitisers.

For reptile keepers who take biosecurity seriously, F10 Hand Gel 500ml offers the same trusted chemistry used professionally — in a format that works wherever you are, washbasin or not.
