We\u2019re all aware that the Covid-19 pandemic has swept the world, causing chaos on every level, including the locking down of many businesses and industries. As more and more businesses in Australia have slowly been allowed to open back up, it\u2019s been on the basis that certain safety precautions are met.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Surface sanitizing and disinfecting floors has become more vital than ever before. In this post, we\u2019ll take a look at some of the reasons why and some tips on how to make your workplace compliant with regulations when it comes to sanitizing. We\u2019ll also look at some equipment like a floor cleaning machine<\/a> you can use to make the task of disinfecting floors that much easier.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Surface Sanitizing and Disinfecting Floors During the Coronavirus Outbreak<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The most obvious reason why sanitizing your commercial premises is so important is to help stop the spread and infection of Covid-19. Viruses can survive for hours or even days on various surfaces and every time someone new ventures into your store, restaurant, bar, warehouse or whatever your business may be, there is the chance for the virus to return.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Surfaces and floors need to be thoroughly clean and sanitized very regularly to minimise the impact of coronavirus, as well as any other type of virus or bacteria. Disinfecting surface areas, both flat and vertical, as well as the floors, is a very robust way to combat the spread of Covid-19.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In order to be compliant with current laws and restrictions regarding the pandemic, for many businesses to be allowed to open, you have to ensure that all safety measures are in place to protect your staff and customers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Social distancing and wearing masks are two mandatory measures for most businesses to be allowed to open to the public. Another key measure is extreme cleanliness and sanitation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Not only will this instil confidence in your customers and staff that your business is a safe place to be, but it will also keep your operation in compliance with the Covid-19 restrictions and protection measures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

These restrictions have to be adhered to, at least for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

How To Disinfect Floors With a Scrubber Dryer Machine<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A floor cleaning machine known as a scrubber dryer is one of the most effective ways of cleaning and disinfecting the floors in your place of business. Floor cleaning equipment will really make remaining compliant and hygienic a breeze. It will save you time too.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Removing dirt and debris is not nearly enough. That\u2019s simply cleaning. For some premises and in more normal times, cleaning the floors might be enough, but not now in the Covid-19 world.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Using chlorine in a Eureka floor cleaning machine is one of the very best ways to kill the coronavirus. The team at ASC recommend two efficient models:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

1. Eureka E75 Scrubber<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

2. Eureka E85 Scrubber<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Scrubber dryers clean floors with both friction and suction, with the dryer rapidly drying the floor as it is cleaned and sanitized.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It really doesn\u2019t matter what type of business you operate, a commercial floor cleaning machine is the most proficient method of getting those floors up to standard at all times.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Eureka E75 Scrubber is the smaller of the two models featured and has proven to be an efficient floor scrubber and dryer for most commercial premises. If your floor surface area is even larger, then a step up to the Eureka E85 Scrubber is the perfect choice. Either way, with professional, commercial-grade floor cleaning equipment<\/a> like the two Eureka models mentioned, you\u2019ll have every chance of keeping your floors not only clean, but free of Covid-19 and other bacteria and viruses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Very fast and accurate cleaning and sanitizing are the results you can expect when you use a Eureka floor scrubber machine.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For various surfaces in a food business, you can effectively kill the Covid-19 virus particles with a solution of 70% alcohol. This is perfect for wiping down benches, tabletops and anywhere that people have touched with their hands, for example.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Alcohol can\u2019t be used in a floor scrubber machine because of the flammable vapour, so the recommended disinfectant of choice is chlorine for Covid-19 control.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
