A variety of factors influence the operational decisions a company makes. In the current COVID-19 pandemic, cleaning and disinfecting practices have become high priorities, and sourcing the right chemical solutions has become critical. Custom Formulation is one way to ensure the most effective solution delivers the best results, despite the specific conditions that might exist.

For the tourism and hospitality industries, the COVID19 crisis has had a severely damaging impact. But while business has been brought to a virtual halt, hoteliers are still hosting some residents or now welcoming patients, making effective disinfecting critical.

The transportation industry is used to dealing with challenges, but the COVID19 pandemic has created their most severe challenge. For airlines, buses, railways and metro services, ensuring that passengers and staff are safe from the pathogen is crucial – that means more effective disinfecting and sanitizing measures.

There are clear advantages to keeping the carriages in a railroad and rapid transit service clean. But it’s not just to do with looking good. Research suggests that removing grime that builds up in a metropolitan area can help in lowering urban air pollution levels. With train exteriors and windows often catching large volumes of this dirt each day, rail carriage cleaning regimens can play a useful role in making city air cleaner.

It might seem that boats would require little cleaning. But just because they spend so much time in the water does not mean they are kept clean. In fact, water – whether salt or fresh – can cause a buildup of soils, dirt and grime which, when left unattended to, can cause real damage. But with the right marine cleaning product, this problem can be dealt with.
