SAO Cleaning System (Stabilised Aqueous Ozone)

Backed by science and proven in the field, SAO cleaning delivers a compliant and sustainable solution trusted across healthcare, education and government sites.

A Safer and Smarter Alternative to Traditional Cleaning

Sustainable cleaning has become an expectation in modern workplaces. Organisations are searching for solutions that deliver excellent hygiene while also supporting environmental commitments and meeting procurement goals. 

The SAO (Stabilised Aqueous Ozone) cleaning system represents one of the most innovative steps forward in commercial cleaning. Already trusted in schools and government facilities worldwide, it provides a proven alternative to harsh chemicals. Workplaces that adopt SAO benefit from improved sustainability ratings, safer environments for staff and visitors, and stronger performance in government and corporate procurement evaluations. 

What is SAO?

SAO stands for Stabilised Aqueous Ozone. The system turns ordinary cold tap water into a highly effective cleaning and sanitising solution. Through a safe electrical process, oxygen is transformed into ozone and then infused into water. 

The result is a powerful cleaner that naturally breaks down soils, grease, and bacteria without relying on harsh chemicals. After use, the solution reverts back to water and oxygen, leaving no residue and no harmful impact on the environment. 

Why SAO Matters for Businesses and Government

More organisations are being asked to demonstrate sustainability in procurement and operations. Offering SAO gives Comclean clients a distinct advantage. Not only does the system remove harsh chemicals from daily cleaning, but it also reduces packaging waste, transport needs, and storage requirements. 

Government agencies, schools, and large organisations value SAO because it directly supports their sustainability commitments. Adopting this system shows leadership, responsibility, and care for both people and the planet. 

Benefits of SAO Cleaning

Stronger Sustainability

SAO reduces reliance on chemical products, cutting down on packaging waste, chemical manufacturing, and transport emissions. As a result, organisations can make significant progress towards environmental targets.

Safe for People and Surfaces

Because SAO contains no harsh chemicals, it improves indoor air quality and lowers risks for staff, students, and visitors. It is safe on most surfaces and reduces the chance of damage caused by aggressive cleaners.

Cost Effective

Although innovative, SAO also helps reduce overall costs. By generating cleaning solution on site, organisations purchase fewer chemical products, use less packaging, and streamline storage.

Recognised and Proven

The SAO system is already widely used in schools, government facilities, and large organisations worldwide. Its strong record of effectiveness makes it a trusted choice for sustainable cleaning.

How We Use SAO 

SAO is integrated into cleaning programs for clients who place a high priority on sustainability. Each site is carefully assessed to determine where the system provides the greatest benefit. 

The solution is particularly valuable in schools, government buildings, and workplaces that require both high hygiene standards and sustainable practices. By combining SAO with ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems and GECA-certified products, Comclean delivers cleaning that is effective, safe, and environmentally responsible. 

Supporting Compliance and Procurement Standards

SAO helps organisations align with modern procurement standards and sustainability frameworks. By reducing chemical use and environmental impact, the system supports compliance with initiatives such as Green Star, WELL, and NABERS ratings. 

For government buyers, requesting SAO through Comclean provides a clear advantage in meeting sustainability criteria during tender evaluations. Private organisations also benefit by demonstrating strong environmental performance and commitment to corporate responsibility. 

A Practical Step Towards Greener Cleaning

Sustainable cleaning is about making choices that protect people, reduce environmental impact, and meet the expectations of modern workplaces. SAO offers a simple, proven way to achieve these outcomes without compromise. 

Organisations that adopt SAO position themselves as leaders in sustainability. They gain measurable environmental benefits, improve workplace safety, and demonstrate responsibility in every tender and procurement process. Choosing SAO with Comclean means investing in a cleaner, safer, and more future-ready approach to facility management.
