Disinfection is an opportunity

I hope all is well with you, your family, and all those you care about. I want to draw your attention to your customer’s and employees’ perception of your disinfection protocols. This is especially significant during the current COVID crisis, but it is equally important as an ongoing concern for the future, as normal routines become increasingly disrupted.

First of all, you need to clean before you disinfect. Sanitizing is not disinfecting. We all need to understand the implications of NOT disinfecting our homes, businesses, and vehicles. You see, disinfection is actually an investment – not a cost. It’s an investment in the health & safety of all those we care about or come into contact with. By being a leader in your disinfection routines, you are setting an example, and you will be recognized as a person or business that genuinely cares about people. It all starts with the disinfection of the person before they enter your business or home. Washing hands or using hand sanitizer is the first step. The second step is actually a regular disinfection process. At home, we suggest washing or disinfecting at least twice a day and after any outside activities. In a vehicle, we suggest having an individual sprayer and spraying it every time you get in and out of the vehicle. At times having gloves, a mask, and some eye protection are also critical. Yes, this is time-consuming, so you will have to determine your own balance between safety and comfort. Don’t forget to read about dwell times on your product. Dwell time is how long you have to wait before the job is done appropriately. Read your label.
