Surface disinfectants have a bactericidal, virucidal and fungicidal effect and ensure simple and safe disinfection. They are an important part of hygiene in the healthcare sector. However, floors and surfaces also need to be cleaned regularly with surface disinfectants in other areas such as childcare centres, public buildings such as banks, insurance companies or supermarkets or in private households.
Spraying or wiping
Whether spray or wipe disinfection is required depends on the size of the surface and whether the surface to be disinfected is accessible. For large surfaces, disinfectant wipes are recommended for wiping. Economical disinfectant concentrates, which are mixed with water to form ready-to-use solutions, are suitable for particularly large surfaces.
Surface disinfectant sprays help with smaller surfaces and can be used practically when travelling or on the go to disinfect toilet seats, changing tables or similar surfaces before use. They can also be used to easily remove microorganisms from touchscreens and smartphones.
Frequency of surface disinfection
How often a surface disinfectant needs to be used sometimes depends on the risk of infection and can vary from room to room. In treatment or meeting rooms, for example, where people are frequently present, disinfection must be carried out more often than in rooms where there is hardly any traffic.
How should surface disinfectant be used?
Three basic rules must be observed when using surface disinfectants:
- The manufacturer's instructions for the surface disinfectant must be followed.
- Protective gloves must be worn to protect against infection and to protect the skin.
- Firstly, it is advisable to remove coarse soiling and contamination with organic agents.
- The agent is applied to the surface to be disinfected using the correct dosage and light pressure. Each surface disinfectant has a specific contact time that must be observed.
It is important that surface disinfectants only work where they are applied. They also only work if they are dosed correctly and the contact time is observed. If the disinfectant has to be wiped off again after treatment, for example in the food sector, this must also only be done after the specified contact time.
