\n

Disinfecting without first cleaning, removing it immediately after application, not following the manufacturer’s instructions, using more than the recommended amount, mixing several products and, above all, not using quality and highly effective disinfectants, such as those from G2 Green, are the most frequent errors when it comes to eliminating germs.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Everyone should know… Cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting are not the same thing, but what is clear is that in order to do the latter, you must first do the former. As true as it is that not all disinfectants are good for everything. In fact, 99.9% efficacy may seem like a very high number, but it leaves out of its spectrum a number of germs<\/strong><\/a> such as fungi, mycobacteria and spores… However, they cover almost all types of bacteria and viruses, including both encapsulated and non-encapsulated ones.<\/p>\n

Therefore, vinegar and bleach are not the ultimate disinfectants. Far from it. In fact, its effectiveness for this task has not yet been scientifically proven, although it is clean. Nor do professional disinfectants act immediately. It is not that they are seen and unseen. They require time. There are even certain surfaces on which they do not work.
\n False myths about disinfection<\/strong>
\n<\/a> of which it is necessary to take good note because of their ignorance come some of the main errors at the time of applying them reducing their effectiveness.<\/p>\n

Main mistakes when disinfecting spaces and surfaces<\/strong><\/h3>\n

X Error 1: disinfecting without first cleaning.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The most frequent of all. Undoubtedly, the one most often repeated by the greatest number of people and the first in order of appearance. It is impossible to completely disinfect a surface without first cleaning it. These are two independent processes. One acts on dust and dirt, thus reducing the number of germs, and the other acts exclusively on germs to eliminate them. That is, if the waste and debris has not been completely removed beforehand, it will promote the growth of germs in spite of disinfection.<\/p>\n

X Error 2: Clean the disinfectant immediately.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s not a one-and-done deal. Spraying and wiping is never enough. It’s not that there is no hurry, things that are well done take time. Therefore, after spraying the surface, the solution requires a few minutes to work and eliminate as many germs as possible. It is usually indicated on the product packaging and is usually not very much. Besides, there is no need to worry. They do not damage surfaces. Which immediately leads to the next error….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

X Mistake 3: spraying a surface and wiping it with a cloth.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Important to read labels. The contact times of disinfectants mean how long the surface must remain wet with the product to achieve maximum efficacy. No disinfectant of any kind ever kills and eliminates germs on contact! It’s not like in Western movies where one shot brings two or three bandits to the ground. Only then should it be dried with a cloth or, better yet, left to air dry.<\/p>\n

X Error 4: not knowing the useful life of the disinfectant.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is essential not only to know the expiration date of the disinfectant concentrate but also the shelf life once it has been diluted in water for direct application, to ensure that the active ingredients continue to work properly. By the way, this information is also on the label. It can be highly variable. In some cases it may be only for a few hours and in others for several months. Then there are also ready-to-use products such as G2 TEC VIR. More comfort.<\/p>\n

No complications. <\/em>TEC VIR of G2 Green<\/em><\/strong><\/a> is a ready-to-use broad-spectrum multi-purpose disinfectant that kills 99.9% of encapsulated germs and viruses on all types of surfaces by contact. In addition, it is authorized for personal, professional and domestic use.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"ATTACHMENT<\/p>\n

X Error 5: more quantity does not imply greater disinfection.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Undoubtedly, another of the most widespread errors. There is a widespread belief that using disinfectants in excessive amounts is better. More beneficial as it will eliminate more viruses and bacteria. It is not only a waste of product but also of time and money. They work best when used in the proper ratio, as recommended by the manufacturer. The same applies to washing machine soap, facial creams and hair lotions.<\/p>\n

X<\/b> Error 6: Mixing several disinfectant products.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under no circumstances. Never. In addition to the potential for dangerous interactions, there is also the possibility that adding other chemicals may cause reactions that make the disinfectant not work well at all. Not even a fragrance to make the mixture smell better. Most likely, they will reduce their effectiveness and will not fulfill the function for which they were developed: to prevent the transmission of germs to humans and animals.<\/p>\n

\"disinfection<\/p>\n

Other application errors that reduce disinfectant efficacy<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There are many more… Without going any further, not wiping hands before and after cleaning or disinfecting contributes to the spread of germs. The importance of wearing gloves should not be underestimated. This is the reason why it is not advisable to disinfect all spaces at the same time. It is best to go one at a time and not to ignore high traffic areas. Those with which a greater number of people interact over time, such as door knobs, light switches, appliance handles, bathroom faucets and toilet flushing, even if they all operate with a button.<\/p>\n

For this reason, in order to achieve maximum disinfection at the best price and eliminate all these errors
\n G2 Green<\/strong>
\n<\/a> has created not only
\n TEC VIR<\/strong>
\n<\/a> but also a complete range of disinfectants for an infinite number of uses and applications:
\n MULTITEC<\/strong>
\n<\/a>,
\n HIDROTEC<\/strong>
\n<\/a>,
\n G2 DOSIGEL BACT<\/strong>
\n<\/a>… Also others specific for the food industry such as
\n TECTON 4HG2 STANDARD HA<\/strong>
\n<\/a>,
\n G2 TEC-CLOR FOAMING AGENT STANDARD HA<\/strong>
\n<\/a> o
\n G2 HYG 2 CLOR DISINFECTANT<\/strong>
\n<\/a>among others. And they all have one thing in common… maximum efficiency at the best price and with the utmost respect for the environment and the surroundings.<\/p>\n

Without a doubt, when it comes to disinfecting, Think<\/em>big, clean green!<\/em><\/p>\n
