April 1st Again. "Green" Cleaner For Trains Is Just Water

[irc]

"Northern Rail has been using the Clean Zero substance on all of its 345 trains since late 2023 as part of a net zero drive."

"Clean Zero, made by Lancashire-based 2San, is “just water” and contains no disinfectant or soap-type ingredients."

I am just amazed that a company has been able to package water and sell it as a cleaner with no disinfectant or detergent type additives.

Apparently their other product is sand which they sell to the Egyptians!

When I read it my first thought was “The emperor’s new clothes”

Ach well, it’s just another way of funnelling taxpayers money down the drain (Northern is nationalised already). I did like the quote about the product showing a significant reduction in germs on the surface, I imagine a damp cloth may well be able to show similar results.

And how many plastic bottles did they get through ?.
