ProKlean Talks Rebranding, Chemistry, and Choosing the Right Solutions for You

ProKlean leaders explain product chemistry, safety, and training behind their expanded solutions line

By Kayla McGowan
February 20, 2026

On this episode of Ask The Expert, we’re joined by the ProKlean team, and we chatted about rebranding, chemistry, and choosing the right solution as restoration professionals. Our special guests are Robin Manocchio, Partner and Owner, Jason Gillis, Partner and Owner, and Ken Bezar, Director of Education for ProKlean.

Key topics of conversation and takeaways from this episode include:

  • ProKlean's rebrand represents their expansion beyond just chlorine dioxide products into a broader suite of cleaning and restoration products a one-stop-shop for contractors.
  • Outside of their well-known chlorine dioxide gas and liquid products, they also manufacture a wide range of other chemicals like fuel additives, degreasers, and a full JanSan line.
  • Breaking down the chemistry between ProKlean's gas and liquid chlorine dioxide products is that the gas penetrates hard-to-reach areas, while the liquids are better for surface application.
  • Ken breaks down common mistakes contractors are making by not following the mixing instructions precisely, and not using the proper personal protective equipment (PPE), especially for the gas product which is a respiratory irritant.
  • The team stressed the importance of education and hands-on training to ensure contractors use their products safely and effectively. They offer a variety of training options from webinars to onsite training.
