HOW ECOLOGIC CAN HELP
Now that Massachusetts and the surrounding states are looking at re-opening, many businesses are evaluating infection control services. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic this wasn’t something most service providers or facility managers talked about. Now it seems that all service providers claim to be experts (90% just started within the last 90 days). ECO Logic has been providing these services since 2009. We started during the H1N1 pandemic and have over a decade worth of experience.
We know that choosing the right disinfectant and the right application method are critical to ensure the safety of your workplace, and your employees. Not all disinfectants kill all germs or viruses, and many are toxic and corrosive if used incorrectly or too frequently. That’s why you need to choose a disinfectant that treats the pathogen you are trying to kill. The disinfectant should be safe for the environment it is servicing, non-toxic, non damaging to finishes and safe for the technicians delivering the service. Our team uses commercial electrostatic sprayers which provide broad-spectrum coverage throughout the space. Our technicians are professionally trained and certified in carpet cleaning and hard surface restoration and we meet CDC and state government guidelines for providing disinfectant services.
REGULAR CLEANING & MAINTENANCE IS CRITICAL
Ongoing cleaning with increased efficacy and frequencies is going to be part of the new normal. But that doesn’t just mean disinfecting surfaces and high touch areas. Regular maintenance of carpeted areas, soft seating and hard surface flooring must be a part of that regular routine. Carpets especially act as a giant filter, trapping contaminants deep within their fibers and can lead to cross contamination if not maintained properly. These contaminants need to be removed by regular deep cleaning. ECO Logic also suggests further sanitizing the carpet after cleaning using a Vital Oxide dilution which helps reduce the risk of infection and the spread of disease. We also clean and sanitize soft seating including task chairs. Combining regular cleaning along with infection control will result in a healthier cleaner workplace and will provide peace of mind for employees.
