Infection Prevention Products
Leaders at commercial and healthcare facilities today are more aware of infection control than they were 10 years ago, and work to maintain higher standards of hygiene. Widespread increase in antibiotic resistant pathogens that cause infections are present in public facilities, as well as common viruses such as influenza and cold viruses, make maintaining a sanitary work environment essential to the health of staff, employees, patients and visitors. Medical studies show that touch-point disinfection is a major factor in reducing healthcare acquired infections.
Infection is costing employers money today. Nearly 97 million cases of the flu are reported annually, resulting in 75 million “sick” days costing employers over $10 billion. Research shows that cold and flu germs generally remain active longer on stainless steel, plastic and similar hard surfaces than on fabric and other soft surfaces. Surfaces act as reservoirs of microbes that could lead to the spread of sickness and infection. Hand washing by workers can control the further spread of the microorganism, but does not eliminate the surface contamination itself.
