ozone is an oxidizing agent. it destroys smells by oxidizing the proteins and such that create the smell.

Unfortunately, this also means that any plastics or adhesives used will generally be broken down too. (the degradation in plastic is similar in effect to UV exposure, where the adhesives just… as you mentioned… becomes ‘unglued’)

Enzymatic cleansers will likely be a better solution. Though, I’ve used ozone generators to remove some truly… unique… smells; when I was working for a college cleaning dormitories. but it really is a nuclear option.
