Do you have a dirty past? It’s not a typical question in business, right? But we ask you this because before the pandemic, cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting was a nightly or even weekly operation. Today, to tackle the virus and other germs, some companies are choosing hourly and ‘as needed’ cleaning and disinfection services, just like at grocery store checkouts.
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we live, work and play. For high-contact businesses, industrial facilities, institutions and commercial workplaces, keeping surfaces clean and sterile isn’t an obligation, it’s a responsibility and the law.
But there are so many products out on the market. And manufacturers are touting their product as the leading disinfection brand. It’s confusing for consumers and decision makers like you! We get it.
The solution to safety and sustainability is here!
Tried! Trusted! True!
