Why is this Service Important?

Germs exist and we all know it. They are a part of our everyday life. They can be found everywhere - in the air we breathe, the amenities we use, even in the fountains we use to obtain water from. However, they are also on our skin and bodies. More importantly our germs and the billions of germs of those around us, are also on the surfaces and objects that we touch and interact with everyday.

Sometimes those germs can spread to you and make you sick and may even cause diseases.

We all need to work together to address this situation and minimize our exposure to create a healthier environment in which our productivity can thrive and not the germs.

• Disinfecting uses chemicals (disinfectants) to kill germs on surfaces and objects.

  • You need to leave the disinfectant on the surfaces and objects for a certain period of time to kill the germs. Disinfecting does not necessarily clean dirty surfaces, it is a method used to Kill existing germs on the surface or space.
