Public Services Hygiene Solutions
Police Force
Every high level human traffic environment needs to maintain good levels of hygiene. A police station is no different, and in particular may suffer from excessive soiling due to detainees being intoxicated and even violent and making a mess as a result. Quite often injured people can give rise to blood spillages which immediately makes the area potentially vulnerable to infections.
Areas for concern could be:
- Reception areas - where everyone using the station passes through
- Glass/perspex screens - separating the officers from the public but prone to getting dirty and spreading infections from person to person in close proximity and touching screens
- Containment areas - where people from all walks of life are held when under suspicion or charged with an offence. Sadly these areas can and do get soiled with human faeces, vomit, urine and blood which pose a hazard to anyone else entering the space due to the potential spread of bacteria and infections
A way of combating the health risks outlined above is to implement the use of an effective high level disinfectant cleaning product that is not only effective against all bacteria and viruses, but that works extremely well even in the presence of dirt and heavy soiling.
eradic8® A2Z is the product ideal for the more demanding situation as it has incredible wetting properties that lift dirt and soiling. The high level of surfactants in the product then hold on to this grime and allows the potent biocide combination to rapidly eradicate any pathogens that may be present.
eradic8® A2Z has a further excellent attribute in that once the surface has been cleaned by using the product, then that surface will continue to remain germ-free due to an invisible layer that bonds to the surface and provides sustained biocidal activity long after they have been cleaned - Clinical trials have proven that even after 14 days eradic8® A2Z was just as effective as when it started! Laboratory results are available.
In cases where high level sterilisation were required due to known high risk spillage/contamination it would be recommended that eradic8 A2Z was used for pre-cleaning followed by eradic8 Bi-Oxy sterilizing product to ensure an absolute risk-free situation.
HM Prisons
The number of people held in prisons currently stands at over 80,000 across England & Wales alone - squeeze that into around 142 prisons and you have some serious headcounts per facility - it is well documented that our prisons are over-crowded!
Like so many other applications mentioned in this website prisons require good levels of housekeeping and hygiene. The close proximity of all these inmates could potentially lead to the spread of infections rapidly if hygiene practices and products were not up to scratch.
The daily cleaning regime within the facility could no doubt be enhanced by the use of a sanitising product with the attributes of the eradic8 range. The superior detergent and disinfecting properties of A2Z provide the professional cleaner with the power to clean easier and more efficiently without the need for several different cleaning products. They would also have the knowledge that whilst physically cleaning all the washable surfaces with A2Z they would be sanitising these surfaces from all known bacteria and viruses.
The protective barrier that A2Z puts down on a surface will remain active against re-contamination for sustained periods of time, thereby reducing the risk of infection for longer!
The eradic8 range of High Level Disinfectants is suitable for ALL washable surfaces found within prisons such as:
Handrails - Chairs - Tables - Floors - Walls - Toilets - Basins - Taps
