The coronavirus has forced many industries to change their cleaning habits. When it comes to public transport, local governments are obliged to ensure appropriate disinfection of all sensitive places. Due to the introduced sanitary regime, city authorities are implementing safety measures in mass public transport. What does cleaning public transport look like during the coronavirus pandemic?
Limited courses, reduced number of places and mandatory, frequent disinfection
There is no denying that the coronavirus has turned the world upside down. It forces us to change our habits and take a completely different approach to keeping surfaces clean and hygienic. At the time of the highest incidence of the disease in the country, numerous restrictions were introduced, which also severely affected public transport. Many trips have been canceled and the number of seats on public transport has been reduced to half. Additionally, expenditure on cleaning products has been increased and disinfection has been much more frequent than before. Such restrictions made sense because today we see their positive effects. Thanks to this, we slowly start to regain balance. More and more people can travel by public transport and suspended services are being restored. The only thing that has not changed and will not change for a long time is frequent and thorough disinfection.
Critical areas in public transport that require frequent disinfection
There are many such places in public transport. These areas frequently touched by passengers are particularly sensitive. These include, among others:
- handrails and handles,
- chairs,
- windows
- buttons
- vehicle casing
- stops
It is worth mentioning that in many cities, buses and trams have always been washed and disinfected regularly. The pandemic did not change much, although it forced these activities to be performed much more often. Therefore, it has become necessary to equip people with disinfectants that are effective in the fight against the coronavirus. Most elements that are frequently disinfected in public transport are made of metal and plastic. Therefore, it is necessary to use a preparation that is effective but at the same time gentle on the cleaned surfaces. It is recommended to use professional cleaning and disinfecting agents produced by experienced and well-known brands in the cleaning industry, such as Clinex .
Clinex DEZOFast, as a highly efficient and strong weapon to fight bacteria and viruses
Professional Clinex cleaning products guarantee their effectiveness, which is confirmed by research. This is why they outperform other products, often of unknown origin or composition. In the case of the Clinex brand, we are dealing with products of high effectiveness, great efficiency, safety and simplicity of use.
The DEZOFast product has been properly tested at the University of Silesia in Katowice in terms of effectiveness compared to 61% ethyl alcohol. Research clearly shows that Clinex DEZOFast is nearly 7 times more effective than 61% ethyl alcohol, which is very often used in disinfection. Unfortunately, alcohol may damage or corrode the material if used frequently. In the case of public transport, these are huge costs. Therefore, cities cannot afford to use unproven preparations with an increased safety risk.
The secret of the effectiveness and safety of DEZOFast and its use in disinfection of public transport
Clinex DEZOFast washing and disinfecting preparation is an aldehyde-free, highly efficient bactericidal and virucidal agent with a broad spectrum of action. It is based on didecyldimethylammonium chloride, which is much more effective in fighting viruses and bacteria than 61% ethyl alcohol. Moreover, didecyldimethylammonium chloride is also gentler on cleaned surfaces. Therefore, frequent and regular use of DEZOFast surface disinfectant on surfaces such as buttons, handles, handrails or chairs does not pose a risk of damaging the material. The use of Clinex DEZOFast in disinfection of public transport is easy and quick. Just spray the cleaned surfaces with the preparation, and after a while, rub it with a cloth, leaving the active layer on top. The preparation does not require rinsing, which is why it is convenient to use and guarantees quick and effective action.
Concentrated version as an economical solution for disinfection in public transport
The product is available in ready-to-use and concentrated versions. This second version is perfect for cleaning and disinfecting floors and other larger waterproof surfaces. The concentrated agent can also be used to prepare a disinfectant solution for other surfaces. The agent, diluted with a concentration of 1%, is suitable for disinfecting floors or vehicle casing. Preparing a solution with a concentration of 6% will be a full-fledged disinfectant for other areas.
Clinex DEZOFast concentrate is an economical solution for disinfection in public transport, where frequent disinfection is required. Procuring professional and, most importantly, effective and safe means is the basis for providing equally safe services.
