Cold & Flu Season is Back
Fall is here, and that means pumpkins, Halloween and Thanksgiving events. Unfortunately, in addition to the beautiful weather, fall is also cold & flu season.
Cold and flu season has started and now more than ever, it is critical to have the correct solutions to prevent the spread of viruses. Prevent and combat the spread of these common viruses throughout your facilities with a few products and tools to sanitize and disinfect.
Remember, cleaners are not always germ killers. They remove dirt, dust, stains, and grease from a surface. If you are looking to kill germs, you will need a disinfectant and/or sanitizer. Sanitizing reduces the bacteria on a surface (specific bacteria listed on the product) while disinfecting destroys both bacteria and viruses on hard nonporous surfaces.
Improve Workplace Health & Stop the Spread of the Flu
- Encourage your employees to get their flu vaccine
- Develop policies that encourage employees to telework so that they can care of themselves and their families
- Provide resources and information on risk factors of the flu and who might be at high risk for flu complications
- Provide products and resources that promote preventive action against the flu
WOW Items for Preventative Action
One of the best ways to improve workplace health is to provide products that promote preventative action against the flu and other bacteria and viruses for those employees that are in the office. Looking to help those at home as well? A few of these items can be sent in an employee care package as well!
Electrostatic Sprayers
The traditional spray & wipe method is not the most efficient disinfecting method when it comes to larger spaces, oddly shaped surfaces, or hard to reach areas. Studies have shown that the electrostatic disinfecting process is quick and highly efficient due to the full, even coverage it offers. The positively charged disinfectant allows it to stick to the surface you want disinfected, wasting less product.
The Victory Electrostatic sprayer comes in a handheld and backpack option. Our favorite product to refill them with is Diversey Oxivir TB One-Step Disinfectant Cleaner.
If you are looking to buy a locally made option, we are loving these backpack and handheld sprayers by EI Solutions:
