Did you know? The average person touches over 300 surfaces every 30 minutes. Think about the moment that you walk into work. You touch the door handle, the light switch, your sign in and out board, your chair, desk, computer, phone, pens, notepad, lunch, fridge handle, stair rails, and so on. On a regular everyday basis, these surfaces collect their fair share of germs and bacteria, but they usually do not make us sick. When all those surfaces are touched by someone with the flu or a virus, however, they become a possible source of infection of people who touch that same surface later
Touchpoint surfaces in your office or commercial property are one of the primary sources of cross-contamination. Bacteria and viruses persist on surfaces for a surprisingly long period of time. The influenza virus, for example, can live from two to seventy-eight hours after being deposited on a surface, ready and able to infect the next person who touches it. Our Edmonton touchpoint commercial cleaning service stops germs in their tracks by sanitizing surfaces that are frequently touched.
