Cleaning and chemical brands we supply
Lanson Group supplies three complementary chemical brands: Virkon, the peroxygen disinfectant system manufactured by Lanxess; Prochem Europe, professional carpet, upholstery and hard floor cleaning chemicals; and Day-Impex, whose LabGUARD and ProCARE lines cover hand washing and skin care. Between them they cover disinfection, cleaning and hand hygiene on a single approved trade account.
Our brands
Three brands that cover disinfection, cleaning and hand hygiene
Virkon handles the kill step, Prochem handles the clean, and Day-Impex looks after the hands doing the work. Each brand is listed below with the parts of the range we hold.
Virkon (Lanxess)
Virkon is a peroxygen-based disinfectant system made by the specialty chemicals group Lanxess and supplied in the UK through Day-Impex. It is mixed from powder, tablets or liquid concentrate into a working solution, so one pack replaces a shelf of ready-to-use bottles.
- • Virkon S for farm, veterinary and animal housing biosecurity
- • Rely+On Virkon and Virkon Professional for clinical and workplace surfaces
- • Virkon Aquatic for hatcheries, fish farms and aquaculture equipment
- • Rely+On PeraSafe for cold liquid sterilisation of instruments and endoscopes

Prochem Europe
Prochem manufactures professional cleaning chemicals for carpet and upholstery cleaners, contract cleaners and facilities teams — presprays, extraction detergents, spotters, deodorisers, fabric protectors and hard floor maintenance products, plus the machines and accessories that go with them.
- • Presprays and traffic lane cleaners for heavy soiling
- • Liquid and powdered extraction detergents, including WoolSafe-approved options
- • A full spotting kit for coffee, ink, rust, red dye and general stains

75 lines listed
Day-Impex (LabGUARD, ProCARE)
Alongside the Virkon range, Day-Impex manufactures LabGUARD antimicrobial hand soap and ProCARE moisturising hand cream — the hand hygiene and skin-repair half of a disinfection programme, which matters when staff wash and glove up dozens of times a shift.
- • LabGUARD antimicrobial hand soap in 1L dispensers and 5L refill cans
- • ProCARE hand cream in 85g tubes and 450g pump bottles
- • Virkosan sanitising hand gel for point-of-use hand hygiene
