In the current context, disinfection and cleaning are important in preventing infections and the transmission of diseases. It is essential to maintain good hygienic conditions on surfaces that are used regularly, as we usually fill them with germs and bacteria. Therefore, carrying out disinfection actions in certain areas of the home, offices or other workplaces is essential to guarantee the environmental safety of the area, thus reducing the spread of diseases or any type of virus.
What should you bear in mind to ensure proper disinfection?
The first thing to bear in mind is that cleaning and disinfecting are two tasks that we must carry out in a complementary way. On the one hand, cleaning is about removing dirt from any object or space using water and detergents. This will reduce the number of germs but will not eliminate them completely. On the other hand, disinfecting consists of eradicating pathogens such as bacteria, viruses or fungi.
To disinfect a surface correctly, it must first be cleaned with soap and water or with detergent and water, as this removes all kinds of germs, dirt and impurities. Once the surface is clean, bleach or a disinfectant product that contains 70% alcohol should be used. It is not advisable to use vinegar or other natural products.
Aerosols or disinfectant products that help with this cleaning and disinfection work can be found on the market. At CH Química we have a wide range of cleaning products, as well as disinfectants and biological products, that will help you keep any type of surface clean, both in the office and at home. To be effective, this type of disinfectant product must remain wet on the surface for several minutes. Among our most effective products are: H-70%, DG10, Airnet and Airpur.
