The new landscape of hygiene – commercial cleaners respond to the Covid19 pandemic

JUNE 29, 2020 BY MITCH

Strange times indeed are upon us and the need for better hygiene has never been more evident than it is today. Cleaning traditionally was viewed as a mundane routine and ongoing service, which was usually only ever noticed when it was not done properly.

Advanced Cleaning, like many other commercial cleaning service providers, have been providing a range of quality cleaning services throughout Australia.

Since the Covid19 pandemic emerged around the globe, we have seen some considerable changes to how critical it is to maintain consistent hygiene overall. Commercial premises and the additional risks associated with higher levels of human movement traffic are most at risk of communal spread of the virus.

How long does the contagion last on surfaces?

Some surfaces are less at risk than others depending on the amount of human contact and the material of which the surface consists. In high traffic areas, the infection risk is obviously increased, but the type of surface governs the duration of which the contagion is detectable on various surfaces.

• Paper - up to 30 minutes

• Tissue paper - up to 30 minutes

• Wood - up to a day

• Cloth - up to a day

• Glass - up to two days

• Banknotes - up to two days

• Stainless steel - up to four days

• Plastic - up to four days

Therefore, keeping surfaces clean and hygienic is a crucial ongoing task that must be upheld if we are to remain ahead of the curve in terms of contagion spread. This is the new norm and it is something we as a society will need to get used to.

We’re adapting to minimise the spread

Advanced Cleaning has been leading the way for years in terms of our methodologies, training, technologies and our cleaning products.

Adapting to change and progress has always been an integral part of the Advanced Cleaning innovation program. Now it is even more important as we aim to ensure the spread of Covid19 is at least mitigated and at best removed in our clients’ premises.

Responsibilities of cleanliness and hygiene rest with the management of business premises for the most part. Owners of premises and their administrative chain of command are therefore in the firing line of health department enforcement if things go awry.

This is why it’s critical to rely on experts in their field such as Advanced Cleaning to ensure you have covered your duty of care to provide a safe and clean environment for your customers.
