What is the difference between cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting?
Cleaning refers to removing or wiping away dirt and impurities, including germs, from a surface.
Disinfecting is the process of killing the bacteria or virus on a surface. It should be noted that the disinfecting takes place after the appropriate product dwell time (remaining on the surface in a wet state). Therefore, if a disinfectant cleaner is used to clean a surface, and is wiped off before the recommended dwell time, the residual bacteria and viruses may remain alive on that surface.
Sanitizing is reducing the bacteria and viruses to a safe level and is generally accomplished by a shorter dwell time than disinfecting, although product characteristics may also come into play.
What is the difference between a disinfectant and a disinfectant cleaner?
A disinfectant cleaner can both clean and disinfect a surface. Some may call this a one-step process product. On the other hand, a cleaning only product or a disinfecting only product is used for that particular purpose only. Some may call this a two-step process. Our cleaning technicians can use either one, depending on the customer needs and desires.
