Our Story
For more than 30 years, we've worked alongside dentists, doctors, and the teams who keep their offices running. So when a holistically-minded Maryland dentist we’d known for years told us she’d seen something remarkable in Japan, we listened.
Healthcare providers were atomizing hypochlorous acid (HOCl) into an ultra-fine mist, reaching both the air and surfaces throughout an entire room—going far beyond the limitations of traditional surface-only cleaning. She asked if we could find the technology for her. We did, and that request became the "genesis" of Genesis+HOCl.
The Genesis 2.6 HOCl fogger began in medical offices, but it didn’t stay there. Today it helps veterinary clinics, fitness studios, restaurants, and schools keep their spaces cleaner because everyone deserves to breathe easy where they work and play.
Bringing HOCl Into Everyday Life
Next, our customers started asking, “Can I have this technology at home?” They wanted something they could simply set and forget. We responded with the Genesis UX4 Stationary Atomizer, the same technology as the 2.6, but sized for living rooms, bedrooms, and residential spaces.
The more people we introduced to HOCl, we also realized a demand for an entry-level option for those wanting to experience HOCl atomizing for the first time. We responded with our popular Rechargeable Fine Mist Sprayer.
Our Genesis 2.6 and UX4 fill an entire room with an ultra-fine mist. The handheld sprayer is different slightly larger droplets that go right where you point them. It’s perfect for everyday use in places like the kitchen, the litter box, the car, or a musty room or closet. And now you can find it on Amazon, making it easier than ever to bring a little HOCl into your day.
Our name comes from Genesis 2:6 “…and a mist was going up from the land.” Just as a mist rose from the earth “In the Beginning,” Genesis+HOCl creates a cleaner indoor environment, treating both the air you breathe and the surfaces you touch.
Why Genesis Exists
Nature and Science. The Best of Both Worlds.
When was the last time you discovered a household cleaner inspired by something your own body naturally produces?
Meet HOCl (hypochlorous acid)—a remarkable molecule made by your white blood cells as part of your immune system's natural defenses.
We often think of natural products as gentle, but wonder whether they'll really get the job done. What makes HOCl so fascinating is the combination of its natural origins and its remarkable versatility.
From specially formulated products used in medical settings to everyday cleaning of hard, nonporous surfaces, HOCl has found its place in some surprisingly different applications.
And at Genesis+HOCl, we take that versatility one step further—with innovative atomizing technology that delivers a fine HOCl mist into the air and onto surfaces simultaneously.
Because there's more to clean than what you can see.
Our Vision
We hear the phrase “getting back to nature” all the time. But have you ever stopped to think about just how much of our everyday lives has become artificial?
From synthetic fabrics and furnishings to processed foods and household
cleaning products, we're surrounded by things that take us further and further
from nature.
So why shouldn't the products we use to clean our homes bring us a little closer to it?
That's one of the things we find so fascinating about hypochlorous acid (HOCl). It's a naturally occurring molecule that your own immune system produces. Simple chemistry, inspired by nature, with a remarkable range of applications.
When we started Genesis+HOCl seven years ago, relatively few people had even
heard of HOCl, much less HOCl atomizing. Today, we're amazed by how much that
awareness has grown—and we're excited to be part of it.
Our vision is simple: To help more families and business owners discover a different approach to everyday cleaning—one that brings nature and thoughtful technology together, caring for both the air around us and the surfaces we touch.
Because we believe clean living should begin with the way we clean.
Our Mission
To deliver safe, science-backed HOCl atomizing solutions that protect people, pets, and the planet. Through education, innovation, and integrity, we equip home and business owners with effective, non-toxic tools to improve indoor air and surface quality—making innovative HOCl atomizing technology accessible, sustainable, and trusted for healthier indoor environments everywhere.

In February 2022, we introduced our HOCl atomizing technology to a wider audience through radio on the America Outloud network.

And afternoon radio host, Lisa Dent, enthusiastically endorsed Genesis+HOCl.
