DISINFECTING AREAS COVID-19 INFECTED

WeClean has partnered with leading industry-players to rapidly respond to Covid-19 pandemic. We deploy our experts to homes and businesses to carry-out disinfection and fogging with a pressure pumping machine called FOGGER, to ensure complete and active coverage of all surfaces leaving it inhabitable for Covid-19 and other pathogens. We use approved procedures and certified chemicals and adhere to the manufacturers’ user guide and ensure to:

• check labels and be aware of potential hazards of each product 
• avoid contact with eye and skin when handling disinfectants and other cleaning chemicals
• avoid mixing different chemicals without proper due diligence
• use in a well-ventilated area.

Our disinfecting teams are well trained, highly organized and very competent in INFECTION CONTROL. Clad in a well-fitted PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (disposable gloves, eye goggles and a medicated face mask, disposable long protective coverall), our team adheres to all Covid-19 disinfecting protocols and guidelines: 

• Soiled and damaged gloves are removed and discarded and a new pair worn
• Where possible, areas where the confirmed case has visited are sealed off until disinfection of the contaminated surfaces is completed
• Equipment used in one room are disinfected before using in other rooms. The disinfecting equipment separated from other routine equipment  
• Double-bag all materials for disposal (including rag, disposable gowns and gloves) and seal off with a cable tie. Wear a new pair of gloves whilst handling the bag 
• After disinfection, waste disposal is done in accordance with approved regulations for the disposal of biohazardous waste     

All frequently touched surfaces are cleaned and disinfected with special cleaning paper and AqtiVann. This includes among others:

• Desktop and all work surfaces
