# Dramatically reduce contaminants with disinfectant fogging service

Before the Airgene team completed disinfectant fogging of a 2,000m2 commercial site, the contaminant rating in the communal kitchen was 443. This is equivalent to a Warning level reading categorised as “Biologically contaminated”. After ten minutes the rating had reduced to 1 (readings under 80 = Sanitary Environment).

Airgene uses EarthEcco® – an Australian made, hospital grade disinfectant. EarthEcco’s natural formulation means it is safe enough to use in nursing homes and schools, hospitals and surgeries, and food processing sites. Treated areas are safe to reoccupy just 60 minutes after application.

The disinfectant is applied using a fogging device that disperses millions of micro-particles into the air. This allows us to disinfect areas that are typically missed during regular surface cleaning including under desks and chairs, the tops of cupboards, keyboards, monitors and soft furnishings.

If you would like to find out more about our disinfectant fogging service, please contact Wissam Salama on 0437 895 054.
