Preventing the Spread of COVID-19 at Ohio Pro Solutions

3/29/2020

​At Ohio Pro Solutions, we work with a number of commercial, industrial, government, retail, and educational sites. These sites vary widely in their cleaning and janitorial needs, but in the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak, here are some of the strategies we’re using to keep our essential sites up and running.

Some common things we do to keep our clients safe:
  • Use our commercial disinfectants thoroughly. Our partnership with Spartan chemical provides us with disinfectants for any surface containing powerful, medical grade bactericide and virucide made up of benzalkonium chloride, isopropyl alcohol, citric acid, and sodium hydroxide. They have been laboratory-tested as effective against viruses with similar structure to COVID-19 including avian flu, hepatitis, herpes, and HIV. 
  • "Re-clean" commonly accessed items. Light switches, copy machines, door handles, tissue boxes, paper towel dispensers, sinks, handrails and any item frequently accessed by employees or the public are cleaned thoroughly and repeatedly with the appropriate disinfectant. Remember, glass cleaner and peroxide-only cleaners do NOT contain disinfectants.
  • Dispose of used gloves and discarded cleaning items safely. Ensuring gloves and any discarded cleaning paper, etc. are disposed of properly prevents inadvertent spread of disease.
  • Refer to the CDC and Ohio Department of Health for updated information. Though good information can be accessed via social media or the news, we adhere to the guidelines and recommendations set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Ohio Department of Health. 
  • Remain kind and patient with others. The anxiety that comes from an extended outbreak along with misinformation on social media or bad experiences with illness in the past, can cause people to panic or act irrationally. We’re aware of this and reassure those we meet that everyone can help in keeping areas clean and safe.
Some things we do to keep ourselves safe:
  • Use soap and water. Though disinfectant gels with at least 60% alcohol concentration may indeed help prevent the spread of the illness, good "old-fashioned" soap and water actually deteriorates the lipid outer layer of organisms and causes them to coalesce and rinse away as you wash your hands. Ridding surfaces of the virus is the best way to prevent illness. Be sure to wash your hands immediately before touching your face or eyes.
  • Use gloves and glasses. Currently, the illness most commonly spreads through airborne droplets on to common surfaces. Keeping a barrier between you and those surfaces keeps you safe. 
  • Disinfect common surfaces before touching them. Our powerful disinfectants from Spartan Chemical can rid any surface of viruses and bacteria.
