Louisiana Jail Sees Dramatic Drop in Infection Complaints After Disinfectant Upgrade

By MGN EditorialMarch 24, 2026 at 04:05 PM

A Louisiana correctional facility reports a 62% reduction in infection-related medical complaints after implementing a new on-site disinfectant system.

A Louisiana correctional facility is reporting a sharp decline in infection-related medical complaints following the implementation of ArrowClean's patented on-site disinfectant system, offering real-world evidence of the technology's efficacy in high-risk environments. According to a press release from ArrowClean, the West Baton Rouge Parish Correctional Center saw a 62% reduction in infection complaints from inmates within 30 days of switching to the company's disinfectant solution. The facility houses over 500 inmates and has historically struggled with high rates of infectious disease outbreaks. 'Maintaining a clean, healthy environment is critical in a correctional setting, both for the wellbeing of inmates and staff,' said Warden Michael Cazes. 'The dramatic improvement we've seen in just one month is a testament to the effectiveness of ArrowClean's technology.' The ArrowClean system uses electrolyzed water to generate a non-toxic, EPA-registered disinfectant on-site, eliminating the need to store and handle harsh chemicals. The company claims the solution is proven to kill 99.999% of common pathogens, including MRSA, E. coli, and COVID-19. 'Correctional facilities face unique sanitation challenges, from overcrowding to budget constraints,' said ArrowClean CEO Jane Withers. 'Our goal is to provide a cost-effective, sustainable solution that helps protect the health and safety of inmates and staff.' The West Baton Rouge Parish news follows other recent high-profile case studies highlighting ArrowClean's impact in maritime, healthcare, and food service settings. The company is positioning its technology as a key tool for improving infection control in mission-critical environments.
