Have you experienced a greater demand for hygienic solutions that can remove viruses and bacteria from floors in the wake of Covid-19?

The whole world has been facing a sanitary emergency that has required to keep the environments strictly cleaned to struggle against the spreading of new Coronavirus. These months we have noticed a greater interest in highly hygienic mopping systems, especially the disposable ones that represent the best choice to ensure effective floor cleaningwhile combating cross-contamination. Indeed, they allow you to clean each area with a new mop, counteracting the risk of spreading the virus.

 

Have such inquiries been a knee-jerk reaction to the pandemic, in your view? Or do you consider floors to represent a real risk in terms of spreading the virus?

Today more than ever, it is essential to ensure maximum hygiene through the sanitising and disinfection of environments, floors included. Assuming that the new Coronavirus can reach every surface, it is pivotal adopting effective procedures and using proper equipment to maintain floors cleaned and sanitised, avoiding the dangerous spreading of Covid-19.

 

What is the most hygienic way of cleaning a floor and ensuring that it is Covid-19 free?

Cleaning each area with a new and clean cloth prevents the transmission of viruses from one surface to another: using disposable cloths is, therefore, the ideal choice to maintain high standards of hygiene. Filmop's wide range of equipment includes washing systems that can be combined with disposable cloths to ensure effective floor cleaning while combating cross-contamination. The solutions offered are the ideal ally for cleaning and sanitising floors, including the most difficult-to-reach areas.

 

Is there a need for specialist chemicals and sanitisers when removing viruses from floors?

Adopting strict cleaning and disinfection procedures and using adequate chemicals and sanitisers help to promote safe environments, however, it is not enough: it is essential to rely on highly professional equipment, designed to ensure an efficient cleaning and the maximum hygiene.

 

How often should floor cleaning take place to keep a commercial floor clean and sanitised?

Commercial floors should be cleaned every day and frequently sanitised; furthermore, additional cleaning operations must be put in place promptly in case of specific needs. In this regard, Filmop has realised ErgoDrop, the ergonomic dosing handle always ready to use, designed to facilitate and speed up cleaning operations while ensuring less fatigue.

What types of floors are most at risk of virus transmission?

Healthcare facilitiesnursing homes and public facilities such as schools and nursery schools need to be cleaned in a safer way to avoid the risk of new Coronavirus contamination. Cleaning must meet this specific need, providing exactly what is expected: guaranteeing a high level of hygiene and tackling cross-contamination.

 
What floor cleaning systems do you recommend to keep a floor clean and virus-free?

Using disposable cloths is the ideal choice to maintain high standards of hygiene, counteracting the risk of spreading the new Coronavirus. We recommend Mono-Tex cloth for wet dusting of floors: it stands out for its high absorbency and high capacity to remove germs and bacteria. In addition, laboratory tests confirm the efficacy of the cloth at removing Coronavirus 229E only with water.
