During this outbreak, feel reassured that your custodians, janitors, and your small local cleaning businesses are performing the necessary steps in containing the spread to welcome a safe and healthier environment, and provide a higher level of peace of mind during this time While others deciding to stay at home please find more information about the difference of cleaning, and disinfecting.. Cleaning removes germs, dirt, and impurities from surfaces... or objects. Cleaning works by using soap (or detergent) and water to physically remove germs from a non-porous surface. This process DOES NOT kill germs, pathogens, and viruses. But by removing them, it lowers their numbers and probable risk of spreading infection. Disinfecting KILLS germs on surfaces or objects. Disinfecting works by using chemicals to kill germs on surfaces or objects. This process does not necessarily clean dirty surfaces or remove germs, but by killing germs on a surface after cleaning, it can further lower the risk of spreading infection. ______________________________________________________ In the healthcare setting, alcohol refers to two water-soluble chemical compounds, ethyl alcohol, and isopropyl alcohol, that have generally underrated germicidal characteristics. The FDA has not cleared any liquid chemical sterilant or high-level disinfectant with alcohol as the main active ingredient. Their cidal activity drops sharply when diluted below 50% concentration, and the optimum bactericidal concentration is 60%90% solutions in water. Use a solution that supports AT LEAST 60% alcohol #coronavirus #covid_19 #janitorial #cleaningcompany #bacteria #anewgenerationofclean #janitorialdoneright #icjanitorial

furthermore, as the line between public and private spaces is increasingly blurred, infection control efforts need to extend beyond health care settings and into other shared communal spaces and commercial facilities from schools to office buildings and beyond.

Winter salt ruins floors period. Whether the municipality is using rock salt or snow melting chemicals, these are all tracked into the office. Salt wears away floor polish and destroys carpets. Under desks, all of the salt collects, doing even more damage over time. Without proper cleaning and maintenance, flooring requires replacement much sooner than expected. With proper winter office cleaning with the right equipment, hard surface floors and carpeting are cleaner, more sanitary, and last longer. #wintercleaning #icjanitorial #anewgenerationofclean
