Disinfect & Sanitisation

Coronavirus and similar coronaviruses that cause SARS and MERS, spread from person-to-person. While these viruses happen most frequently among close contacts (within about 6 feet). This type of transmission occurs via respiratory droplets.

Transmission of coronavirus occurs commonly through respiratory droplets than through fomites. Current evidence suggests that novel coronavirus may remain viable for hours to days on surfaces made from a variety of materials. Cleaning of visibly dirty surfaces followed by disinfection is the best practice measure for prevention of COVID-19 and other viral respiratory illnesses in households and community settings.

Frequently touched surfaces (for example: tables, doorknobs, light switches, handles, desks, toilets, faucets, sinks)

Cleaning refers to the removal of dirt and impurities from surfaces.

Disinfecting & Sanitisation refers to using chemicals to kill germs on surfaces.
