Your Kanberra Gel Questions

Your Kanberra Gel Questions Answered

Kanberra Gel is an all-natural proprietary blend of pharmaceutical-grade Australian Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca alternifolia) and other effective essential oils. When used Kanberra Gel allows the natural antiseptic properties of the oils to become airborne through an evaporative release.

Kanberra Gel, being a versatile product, is not only a solution to mold problems. Odor-causing bacteria do not discriminate when it comes to climate. Residents of desert areas who deal with dry heat find plenty of applications for Kanberra products. With the hot climate associated with living in desert areas, air conditioning is running frequently. A “Bio-film” almost always forms on the air-conditioning components, more specifically the coils. This blanket of bacteria is a toxic blend of dust and bacteria juiced by the moisture from the air-conditioning system. The natural properties of Kanberra products assist in breaking down that blanket and washing it away.



For moms with kids and/or husbands who play sports, Kanberra products safely and efficiently remove stubborn odors and impurities from athletic gear (clothing and footwear) and equipment. They are best placed in lockers and dressing rooms, closets, on shoe racks, and anywhere odor could be an issue.



Do you have pets? Kanberra products are also effective in combating pet odors without harming your furry friends. Cleaning chemicals with strong scents like ammonia don't effectively eliminate odors from your pet's urine or defecation and other offensive smells. In addition to maintaining a clean home environment, training your pets and keeping them properly groomed and changing cat litter often, the use of Kanberra products in problem areas can help tackle pet odors at the source and at the same time protect your pets from illness. 


Is moisture a problem in your home? Where there is moisture, there is mold and molds have the potential to damage your home and furnishings and cause health problems. Save money from expensive professional mold cleanup by monitoring and controlling excessive moisture issues. Top it off by avoiding serious health problems caused by mold with a steady program of Kanberra products.




A large number of people are suffering from allergies and common respiratory problems like asthma. Molds produce respiratory irritants, allergens, and potentially toxic substances that humans with sensitivity issues can be exposed to. The medicinal and therapeutic properties of all natural Kanberra products may help reduce symptoms associated with these common health problems safely and effectively.

● Airborne Tea Tree Oil (TTO) – Eliminate spores in 3-4 days, effective for 70-90 days.
● Attack and degrade mold, mildew, and bacteria at the source.
● All Natural. No Chemicals. Safe around kids and pets.
● No plugs. No wires. No bags.
● Work 24/7.

● Kanberra Spray is the same TTO formula in convenient spray – clean air and surfaces.
● Air is odor-free within seconds.
● Spray directly on coils, filters, canvas, etc. to clean. 

How does Kanberra Gel work?

At the micro-biotic level, the air itself absorbs the pharmaceutical grade oils. As the air circulates and lands on the source (the mold, mildew, etc.), Kanberra Gel begins neutralizing and eliminating problems, and associated odors, on contact. It does so naturally, with no chemicals. Most importantly, the use of Kanberra Gel acts as a preventive program against these problems for up to 45 days after there is no longer Gel in the container. 

How Should I Place the Container?

The beauty of Kanberra Gel is that it can be placed anywhere, as long as you have a flat surface. If you
are a new user of the product it is recommended you follow our usage modes with their approximate
application times:

Shock Mode (2-3 days) – Uncap the product and place it open without the diffuser lid.

Maintenance Mode (up to 30 days) - Place the diffuser lid on the container to slow overall evaporation.

Protection Mode (30 to 90 days) – The application area is effectively 'clean' and the product will now
provide airborne protection against any re-growth. 

How Long Does Kanberra Gel work?

The dissipation rate for Kanberra Gel will vary by conditions. In typical applications, the Gel will take
anywhere from 3 to 8 weeks to completely evaporate however it will have a residual effect for up to 45 days. After this time it is recommended to replace the Kanberra Gel in order for it to continually offer protection. Various conditions will affect the dissipation rate. For example, if the Kanberra Gel is placed under a fan, the rate of evaporation will increase due to the increased air flow. In areas of heavy particulates, like cigarette smoke, heavy molds or around pets, Kanberra Gel may evaporate faster. Once the original particulates are addressed, the dissipation of Kanberra Gel should slow into what we call “Maintenance Mode.” Please refer to the Usage Chart for typical size to area recommendations. 

Will Kanberra Gel Leave a Scent?

When Kanberra Gel is working all you should smell is clean air, the way Nature intended. No fragrances, no masking and no perfumes, just true fresh air. Kanberra Gel is unlike any product on the market for eliminating mold, mildew, fungi and their associated odors. Instead of masking the odors with a chemical fragrance, Kanberra Gel actually neutralizes the cause of the odors, leaving the air to return to its original fresh state. 

How is Kanberra Gel Packaged?

Kanberra Gel is packaged in air-tight, drip-free containers with an inner seal and a lid with holes, and
comes in 1oz, 2oz, 4oz, 8oz, and 16oz jars. Kanberra Gel is also available in 24oz and 32oz refill pouches exclusively through efficientliving.com. The inner lid can be thrown away or reused in the event you want to store the Gel.

Rethinking Marine Vessel

Rethinking Marine Vessel Air Quality - Part Six

David Levesque


Throughout the last 5 articles, we at The Kanberra Group have been sharing our experiences and knowledge on the topic of Yacht Air Quality (YAQ). Combining more than 20 years in indoor air quality research and improvement, the Kanberra Group has been working closely with various areas of the marine industry to better understand the needs of boat owners, yacht captains and crews and provide detailed programmatic solutions to enhance marine experience and vessel maintenance. It is commonly accepted among yacht owners that the air inside cabin interiors will always have a certain aroma, a by-product of being out on the water. There is also the, again accepted, existence of mold and mildew, and the inevitable labor that comes with removing it from the yachts after storage and in-between use. Seafarers believe this is the way it has always been, and so it will always be. Simply not true. There is no need to re-invent the wheel for YAQ. Many air quality solutions have been successfully utilized by The Kanberra Group on US Navy ships and other large vessels, as well as commercial buildings and hospitals. These solutions are easily adaptable to any size marine vessel.

Already a staple in the Mega-yacht industry, Kanberra Gel has been making waves in many marine-related areas, as well as RV and automotive storage, hospitality industry, health and fitness, real estate, pet stores and hardware stores.

We had discussed how air filters in your heating and cooling system are an essential component in establishing and maintaining YAQ. The first rule of any air quality management program is “source control.” Remove the contaminants and you improve the conditions. Proper filtration allows for the control and removal of most of those contaminants, thus improving the quality of air flowing through the coil which in turn assists in coil maintenance, reducing ductwork debris accumulation and improving air flow. Kanberra Filters are available through www.KanberraGel.com.

In one of the previous articles we had discussed in detail how in the indoor air quality industry we pay special attention to VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds) and how to control them. VOC’s are emitted from a variety of materials including housekeeping and maintenance products. At The Kanberra Group, we recommend performing general household cleaning using a revolutionary cleaning product called Activeion. More information on Activeion can be obtained by calling The Kanberra Group.

In another article we had focused on coil maintenance. Microbial growth on a coil can create a “Bio-film,” or membrane that essentially blankets the fins, eating away at the cooling coil over time and decreasing the amount of air passing through the system. Maintenance and repair can add up to high costs for the boat owner. At The Kanberra Group we utilize an advanced enzyme cleaner and post-cleaning treatment which is much safer for the boat owner and gentler on the system. Additional information on coil maintenance can be obtained by contacting The Kanberra Group.

Our last article addressed the ages-old challenge of off-season storage. No one cares more about your investment than you do. You certainly work hard to protect your vessel during the season, so why not give her the best care possible during storage? We trust you follow or pay someone to follow a strict program of winterization, however inevitably you will have some mold and odors come spring. Microorganisms will take residence in your boats’ canvas, upholstery, cushions and carpeting for the duration of winter. During the unfailing thaw in January/February, these microorganisms will come out to play. Throughout our travels and discussions we know the most common weapon used in the fight against off-season microbial growth is the hanging moisture bag. What we have learned, and heard, is these only provide some relief. Removing the moisture is important; however these bags do not remove the mold and bacteria spores currently present in the fabrics, upholstery and canvas, not to mention the bilge, holding tank and forward/rear compartments. This is where Kanberra Gel has provided a much-needed solution to the marine industry.

Many storage yards across the Northeast, Great Lakes, the Chesapeake region and many others around the world have incorporated Kanberra Gel into their winterization programs. A canister of Kanberra Gel placed in the vessel with all cabin doors, cabinets and lockers left open will provide protection for the duration of storage. In an enclosed environment the Kanberra Gel vapor will blanket the cabin areas, penetrate the canvas, upholstery, cushions and carpeting and eliminate and control any microorganisms thus ensuring an easier spring clean-up.

These past few years we have seen tremendous growth for The Kanberra Group in not just the marine industry but also in the hospitality industry, independent pharmacies, hardware stores, pet boutiques, automotive industry, real estate and health food markets. We have taken on hundreds of new retailers and distributors and exhibited at various select shows both in and outside the country. The awareness of the benefits of Kanberra Gel seems to be accelerating by the minute with calls and e-mails coming in from all over the world. 

In the past couple of years, The Kanberra Group has expanded its name in the marine industry with such offerings as improved filtration, integrated medical-grade air purification, in-line air duct purifiers and complimentary products to our very popular Kanberra Gel line. We have also recently launched the Kanberra Wipes. Like our gel and spray, Kanberra Wipes feature an all-natural proprietary blend Tea Tree Oils and other essential oils in a convenient surface wipe. Kanberra Wipes are infused with the natural antiseptic and antifungal properties of Tea Tree Oil and other oils to attack bacteria and mold on contact and neutralize associated odors with no chemicals including fragrances or perfumes. Safe around kids and pets, the wipes have countless uses — in the home, car, boat, travel and more. For more information on Kanberra Wipes, contact the Kanberra Group.


Have a great winter!

A Clean Smell

A Clean Smell is Not Always Clean Air…

David Levesque

What artificial smell do you associate with fresh, clean air? Could it be that ever distinct pine forest? Maybe it’s a vast meadow of wildflowers? Or how about a gentle ocean breeze or possibly even crisp mountain air? Well, what if I told you none of the above! What if I offered the possibility that the aforementioned smells were not at all clean air but instead are most likely causing more harm than good? The fragrances and odors left behind when we use cleaning products or “air fresheners”, intended to give us that “feeling” of fresh air, are actually chemical off- gases better known as VOC’s or Volatile Organic Compounds. In sufficient quantities, VOCs can cause eye, nose, and throat irritations, headaches or dizziness. Now that I have your attention, what if I told you a product exists that can rid the air of impurities like mold, bacteria, fungi and even some viruses and leave behind a true clean, fresh smell of simply, nothing. That product is Kanberra Gel.  

Already a staple in the Mega-yacht industry, Kanberra Gel has been making waves in many marine-related areas, as well as RV and automotive storage, pet stores, hardware stores and pharmacies throughout the US, Canada, Caribbean and Europe.

A semi-solid, biodegradable gel composition made with pharmaceutical-grade Australian Tea Tree Oil, Kanberra Gel dissipates into the air to break down mildew, molds, and viruses at the molecular level. Tea Tree Oil is known around the world as a natural antiseptic most commonly used topically. Thanks to the formula in Kanberra Gel, those same antiseptic and antifungal properties can now be realized though an airborne release. There are no synthetic perfumes or chlorine bleach, just truly clean air. Kanberra Gel is currently in use worldwide and is receiving rave reviews from captains, crews and vessel owners who attest it to be a superior alternative to chemical-based products on the market due to its long-lasting performance, ease of use and all-natural properties.  

Kanberra Gel is packaged in sealed, drip-free plastic containers that are placed either within a yacht’s air handling units, or simply out in the open. Because Kanberra Gel offers superior protection against mold, its health benefits are obvious. Kanberra Gel comes in 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32-oz containers and refills. If you would like to see Kanberra Gel sold in your local marina or specialty retailer please e-mail us and we’ll get working right on it! For a complete list of our locations visit http://www.kanberragel.com/.
