Correct hand hygiene is the most effective way of preventing the spread of germs and to protect yourself and others, but it is also important to have effective cleaning regimes in place to help reduce the spread of harmful bacteria and infections.
Effective cleaning regimes need to ensure all surfaces are cleaned with the correct cleaning solution and equipment. Any frequently touched surfaces including worktops, desks, sinks, toilets and door handles need to be cleaned and disinfected regularly, in order to limit the spread of germs and prevent cross-contamination.
The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that ‘Cleaning of visibly dirty surfaces followed by disinfection is a best practice measure for prevention of COVID-19 and other viral respiratory illnesses in community settings.’ Using the right cleaning chemicals, combined with the correct equipment and cleaning routines, is therefore crucial in achieving the best cleaning results and in creating a hygienic and clean environment.
It is also important to remember that as well as using the correct cleaning chemical, the right dosage is just as important, as insufficiently concentrated cleaning chemicals can lead to inadequate cleaning results. Many companies are using highly concentrated cleaning chemicals and the best way to correctly dilute and dose concentrated chemical is by using a chemical dilution system.
Chemical dilution systems work by ensuring quality results and reducing waste by diluting and dispensing chemicals accurately when required. A chemical dispensing system is a piece of equipment that doses or dilutes chemical at the point of use, by the end-user.
When measuring concentrated chemicals manually, often the desired results aren’t reached due to inaccuracy.
Chemical dilution systems were designed to solve this problem, by dosing the correct and required amount, each and every time. This removes human error as employees are no longer required to handle concentrated chemicals and pour the required amount. These systems also protect employees and the user, as they help to avoid direct contact with the concentrated chemical.
“Effective cleaning regimes need to ensure all surfaces are cleaned with the correct cleaning solution and equipment.”
By having the correct amount of chemical dispensed each time, it removes the need for re-cleaning to get the desired results, which are often not achieved when using the wrong amount of product first time around. Eliminating the need to re-clean areas means there is less chemical waste and you only end up using what is needed.
Dilution systems enable you to buy concentrated chemicals, reducing the packaging and transportation costs for large quantities of ready to use product. This also means you will be reducing the amount of plastic waste produced by your company, making it a greener and efficient solution.
Commercial cleaning involves implementing cleaning routines that ensure high levels of hygiene in all areas. The most effective routines should protect the wellbeing of staff and visitors, in addition to safeguarding the health and safety of cleaning operatives. The type of cleaning equipment used, coupled with suitable cleaning products and cleaning routines, plays a significant role in ensuring that high standards of health and hygiene are achievable for all.
When it comes to cleaning equipment, chemical dilution systems are the safe, environmentally friendly and cost-effective option in today’s commercial cleaning environment. Cleaning costs are cut as chemicals are accurately measured at the point of use, the safety of the workforce is greatly increased and everyone benefits from more effective and hygienic cleaning routines that fight the spread of harmful bacteria.
