Common Challenges & Solutions

HERE ARE SOME OF THE ISSUES WE SEE FACED BY INDUSTRY PROFESSIONAL TODAY

Challenges

  • The incorrect use of biocidal chemicals such as (Chlorine, Quats and Hydrogen Peroxide) is increasing the resistance of bacteria to such chemicals
  • Some bacteria are not effectively killed or contained by using even the strongest disinfectant chemicals
  • 93% of laundered cloths have been shown to still contain dangerous levels of bacteria that could trigger Hospital acquired infections (HAIs)

Solutions

  • Correct training and support for staff is vital, the Chicopee team can help educate and trains staff as well as showing them how innovative solutions can make life easier
  • By switching to Microfibre Light you can remove 99.99% of bacteria mechanically, so you don’t kill them but pick them up from the surface, a far more effective method of cleaning for such bacteria as Clostridium difficile
  • We can offer short term use products that match the cleaning ability of traditional laundered products but are designed to be disposed of after use, removing the risk of cross contamination or ineffective laundering

Case Studies

LOOK AT WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE SAID

  • Frequently asked questions

    I currently launder my cloths today, what is wrong with that?

    An independent study found that 93% of laundered cloths in healthcare still contained potentially harmful levels of bacteria after washing. Short term use cloth such as Microfibre Light therefore provide a great alternative for increased peace of mind and security.

  • Frequently asked questions

    Isn’t it bad for the environment to dispose of all the cloths without washing?

    We have completed an independent Life Cycle Analysis to compare laundering microfibre and disposing of short term use microfibre. The results are very close, and laundry has many more variables such as machine loading, temperature and drying cycle

  • Frequently asked questions

    I have a high staff turnover and many of them do not speak the local language

    Microfibre Light comes with printed usage instructions on the sheet, as well as this we can provide A3 posters with simple pictures for each usage step to provide a simple best practise for all staff to see everyday
