SMELLY WASHROOMS
COST CONTRACTS
There are many barriers to e ectively keeping washrooms clean and
fresh-smelling.
No matter how regular the cleaning schedule, airborne bacteria quickly builds
up in enclosed spaces and the resulting growth can cause stubborn smells that
are extremely di icult to eliminate. O en the result is that cleaning sta are
blamed, accused of not doing a thorough job when in actual fact the building
itself can be contributing to persistent bad odours. Poor building maintenance
means hard to reach areas such as cracks in silicon and tiles can become
hot spots for bacteria. These then create pockets of bad odour that are very
di icult to clean so the smell lingers. The blame gets placed on cleaning sta ,
resulting in the cleaning company’s contract being put in jeopardy, when the
maintenance of the building is beyond their control.
When persistent bad odours linger, many try to mask them with fragrances or
sprays – but this is obvious to many and bad odours have a way of permeating
the air or combining with the artificial scent to make the room even more
unpleasant to be in.
AirSteril’s solution to all of this is their air purifying hygiene units, which
eliminate airborne bacteria by disrupting their DNA with ultraviolet light.
AirSteril disinfects and sanitises the air, along with all exposed surfaces 24
hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Unfortunately, another burden of
cleaning companies is rising sta costs. Since many contracts began, National
living wage has increased, alongside pension costs, putting considerable
extra strain on these businesses. When all of the surfaces are sanitised 24/7
by AirSteril technology you can reduce your cleaning cycles confident in the
knowledge that washroom hygiene won’t be compromised.
Independent laboratory tests have proven that within five minutes of exposure
AirSteril eliminated up to 98.11% of airborne bacteria and viruses. Within one
hour up to 59.47% of surface bacteria and viruses, including MRSA, were also
eliminated. (Full Health Protection Agency Laboratory Report available upon
request.)
AirSteril don’t just promise odour
elimination, they guarantee it or
your money back.*
The odour elimination and hygiene li ing
properties of AirSteril reduces the number of
times you need to clean a washroom.
