Healthcare facilities are looking at effective surface disinfection to help with infection control efforts, including which mops are used, according to an article on the American Laundry News website.
Industry experts say there’s been a movement from cleaning patient areas with a detergent plus a disinfectant to using a detergent-free cleaner plus bleach.
Hospitals are also changing to microfiber cloths and mops that dislodge and remove particles from surface crevices where regular cotton products can’t reach.
Flat-mop systems can also result in cost savings, environmental benefits, health and safety, labor and cross-contamination concerns, the article said.
