Ensuring a safe, hygienic and compliant environment
Our COVID-19 cleaning services for Educational establishments, commercial and private sectors.
RCCN is currently working with a number of establishments throughout the UK to eliminate the risk and spread of coronavirus in schools and colleges.
Through effective cleaning solutions that guarantee the highest standard of clinical effectiveness, RCCN can provide peace of mind to those using your space. Using our tried and tested methodology together with cutting-edge products and machines we can confirm our efforts have been highly effective since the outset of the pandemic, protecting surfaces and touch points for up to 30 days.
How do we do this
We treat all surfaces with the latest antimicrobial technology that is water-based, colourless, alcohol-free, non-leaching and contains no harmful cleaning agents, making it safe to use in any environment. Whilst it has a gentle formulation, it is deadly for a broad range of pathogens.
This technology forms part of our solution to prevent, eradicate and protect against the spread of the COVID-19 virus. The product conforms to EN13697, EN1276, EN1650 amongst many more antimicrobial efficacy tests (available on request).
When applied to a surface by spraying, the product leaves behind a mono-molecular layer that permanently bonds to the surface. These antimicrobial, silane-based polymers covalently bond to the surface forming a barrier of positively-charged microscopic pins. The positively-charged microscopic pins attract and pierce negatively-charged pathogens. The pins rupture the cell walls cause the pathogen to break up with lethal effect. The layer of molecular antimicrobial pins carries on working for extended periods on surfaces.
Routine cleaning should continue in order the product can continue to work at its optimal performance, and this does not disrupt the product efficacy or its antimicrobial activity.
We combine the antimicrobial cleaning solution with an electrostatic sprayer which has an electrical charge that when used, it will not only grip to the surfaces, but will also wrap around surfaces providing a 30-day protection on viruses.
Proven methodology
While methods to clean and sanitises surfaces and equipment vary, the need to measure the effectiveness of cleaning practices is universal. Contaminated surfaces and equipment can quickly lead to microbial contamination and ultimately, the infection of personnel.
ATP cleaning verification provides accurate and meaningful results that can help a facility define and monitor a cleaning standard to make sure that standard is maintained. The detection of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the universal unit of energy in all living cells, immediately determines if surfaces and reusable and are truly clean.
Quick response time
Whether you need urgent help to contain an outbreak or want to prevent the spread of the virus, our team can work with you to implement a plan quickly and effectively. The method of application means that there this is no need for lengthy building closures and can be applied with no downtime, outside of hours so that the process is completed in a matter of hours.
Please feel to contact our Operations Director Keith Whitehouse on keith@rccn.co.uk or 07702 240025 for any urgent COVID-19 outbreak queries. We can provide you with a budgetary estimate if you forward the size of your school. This information is usually found on your energy certificate.
