Why Do We Need Electrostatic Disinfecting?

Using a little elbow grease and cleaning solution is a great first step in disinfecting, but it is virtually impossible to disinfect every square inch of surface area in a home or building this way. Not only is it prohibitively expensive in terms of labor, it’s also unrealistic in terms of time available. In reality, germs and bacteria spread into hard-to-reach surfaces faster than we can clean them away. In fact, colony-forming units of bacteria and viruses are hiding in many areas that we cannot access with current methodologies and equipment.

For example, imagine trying to apply a disinfecting solution to all the nooks and crannies that exist in a hospital including; wheelchairs, walkers, beds and other medical equipment. Additionally, let’s take a look at offices, which is another critical cleaning environment. There are a vast number of hard-to-reach areas that are potentially covered in pathogenic bacteria such as keyboards, phones, and desks – just to name a few! Now think about your home with knick knacks, crevices, areas in between nightstands and beds, lamps, etc. Studies show disinfecting has a positive impact on workplace absenteeism as well as the overall health of a facility or home.
