Targeting Urine Stains & Odors
Launched in April 2013, Clorox^® Urine Remover is a groundbreaking product specially formulated to effectively remove urine stains and break down urine to quickly remove – not just mask – odors. The product does not contain bleach and is intended for use on porous surfaces such as grout and concrete making it ideal for use in restrooms.

"I have tried everything to get rid of the urine smell in the restrooms in my restaurant," said Kjerstie, bar and restaurant owner. "Clorox^® Urine Remover is the only product that works."

Clorox^® Urine Remover is effective on soft surfaces like mattresses, carpet and upholstery; is an excellent pre-treatment for laundry and bedding; and is tough on other fluids and solids such as vomit, feces, pet stains and grease. It is available in two sizes: a 32 oz. spray bottle and a 128 oz. refill bottle with a built-in spray nozzle for big jobs.
