Key facts
Why practices choose ALPRON.
CONTINUOUS WATERLINE PROTECTION
Provides continuous, everyday water treatment for dental units connected to an independent water bottle system — helping control microbial contamination and maintain hygienic procedural water.PROVEN, EVIDENCE-BASED WATER MANAGEMENT
Backed by independent university research demonstrating efficacy in dental unit waterline management — not simply manufacturer claims. See the Alpron studiesHELPS PREVENT BIOFILM & ALGAE REGROWTH
Designed for ongoing use to help prevent the regrowth of biofilm and algae inside dental unit waterlines.PROTECTS THE DENTAL UNIT, TOO
Helps reduce limescale and mineral sedimentation and is non-corrosive — supporting the long-term protection of sensitive water-bearing components.MANUFACTURER COMPATIBILITY
Compatible with dental treatment units and recommended/approved for use by well-known dental equipment manufacturers.EFFECTIVE WITHOUT AGGRESSIVE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
Free from silver nitrate, hydrogen peroxide and iodine.SIMPLE 1% DAILY DOSING
Just 10 mL ALPRON per 1 litre of water provides continuous treatment during everyday operation.1 LITRE = 100 LITRES OF TREATED PROCEDURAL WATER
One 1 L bottle prepares up to 100 litres of ready-to-use procedural water at the recommended 1% concentration.

Product information
the essentials.
Key Features
- 1% continuous dosing — 10 mL of Alpron conditions a full litre of procedural water; one 1 L bottle makes 100 bottles of procedural water.
- Reduces germ load and prevents regrowth; removes and prevents algae; prevents limestone (scale) sedimentation.
- Non-corrosive and gentle on equipment, with tested compatibility across dental materials.
- Environmentally responsible — free from silver nitrate.
- Biodegradable – designed to break down naturally, reducing environmental impact.
- Composition
- Phenoxyethanol, PHMB (polyhexamethylene biguanide), EDTA and sodium tosylchloramide in aqueous solution. Contains a source of phenylalanine.
- Directions
- Continuous dosing at 1% — mix 10 mL of Alpron with 990 mL of water (one 1 L bottle makes 100 bottles of procedural water). For a periodic decontamination, use undiluted. Dosing devices are set by a service engineer. Always follow the Product Information.
- Field of application
- Continuous maintenance of the water quality in the procedural-water lines — including the instrument lines and the tumbler (cup) filler — of medical and dental units.
- Clinical data & approvals
- Manufacturer / EU test data: bactericidal to EN 13623, and conservation of procedural water to European Pharmacopoeia 5.1.3 (1% for 28 days). Approved by well-known device manufacturers. Listed on the ARTG (226413) per the Australian Product Information.
- Shelf life
- 2 years.
- Delivery forms
- REF 3183 — carton of 4 × 1 L bottles.
Two regimes — a continuous 1% conditioning dose to maintain water quality, and a stronger periodic decontamination. The spectrum shown is manufacturer / EU test data (EN 13623, European Pharmacopoeia 5.1.3); in Australia, follow the Alpron Product Information and its on-label 1% dosing.
Evidence
the evidence.
Independently tested to recognised European standards by the manufacturer — EN 13623 (bactericidal activity in procedural-water lines) and the European Pharmacopoeia 5.1.3 preservation test. These are European manufacturer test data, not Australian therapeutic claims: in Australia, follow the Alpron Product Information and its on-label 1% dosing.
| Activity | Tested to |
|---|---|
| Bactericidal — disinfection regime, 10% in 12 h (Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) | EN 13623 |
| Conservation of procedural water — 1% for 28 days (Burkholderia cepacia, Enterococcus faecium, Legionella pneumophila, Ps. aeruginosa) | Ph. Eur. 5.1.3 |

FAQ
common
questions.
What is Alpron used for?
Alpron is a liquid concentrate for the continuous conditioning and decontamination of the procedural water in dental treatment-unit waterlines. Used day to day at 1%, it keeps the water clean, reduces germ load and prevents regrowth, removes and prevents algae, and stops limestone sedimentation.
How is Alpron dosed?
As a 1% continuous additive: mix 10 mL of Alpron with 990 mL of water — one 1 L bottle makes 100 bottles of procedural water. It runs continuously in the unit’s bottle or dosing system; dosing devices are set up by a service engineer. For a periodic decontamination it is used undiluted. Always follow the Product Information for your unit.
What is Alpron made of?
A water-based concentrate of PHMB (polyhexamethylene biguanide), EDTA, sodium tosylchloramide and phenoxyethanol; it contains a source of phenylalanine. It is non-corrosive and free from silver nitrate, hydrogen peroxide and iodine.
How is Alpron different from Bilpron?
Alpron is the day-to-day 1% conditioner that stays in the water while you treat patients. Bilpron is a ready-to-use solution used over closures — overnight, weekends and holidays — to decontaminate and protect idle lines. Use Alpron continuously and Bilpron over downtime; the BRS Kit is the one-off deep clean before the routine begins.
Is Alpron safe for Environment?
Yes — Alpron is non-corrosive and compatible with the materials used in dental treatment units, and is free from silver nitrate, hydrogen peroxide and iodine. Alpron is 100% biodegradable when diluted and used according to the manufacturer’s instructions of use.
