Beyond Handwashing: Why Surface Disinfection is Critical

You may wash your hands regularly, but if the surfaces around you aren’t disinfected, you’re only addressing part of the hygiene equation. Germs and viruses don’t just reside on our skin—they linger on the surfaces we interact with throughout the day. From desktops and door handles to light switches and shared equipment, these areas can become reservoirs for harmful pathogens. Uniwipe provides a clinically tested and highly effective solution for surface disinfection, proven to kill 99.999% of bacteria. As part of a comprehensive approach to surface hygiene, Uniwipe disinfection wipes are an essential tool in reducing the spread of infections in everyday and high-risk environments.

The Importance of Surface Disinfection: More Than the Clean Look

Disinfecting surfaces goes beyond maintaining a clean appearance—it plays a critical role in reducing the risk of infection. While routine cleaning removes visible dirt and debris, it does not eliminate the harmful microorganisms that can lead to illness. Research has demonstrated that viruses, including SARS-Cov-2, can remain active on surfaces such as plastic and stainless steel for up to 72 hours. Without consistent and effective surface disinfection, these areas can serve as points of transmission. Uniwipe Clinical Midi-Wipes are tested to the highest clinical standards and are proven to kill 99.999% of bacteria, providing a reliable and efficient solution for minimising these risks and supporting a safer environment.

Surface Hygiene: The Hidden Dangers in Shared Areas

Surfaces that are frequently touched, such as keyboards, countertops, remote controls, and door handles, are common sources of cross-contamination. These high-contact points require regular and thorough disinfection, particularly in environments with shared use.

Uniwipe’s range of products are specifically developed for such applications. Their high-performance formula enables effective removal of bacteria and enveloped viruses, supporting infection control protocols across multiple sectors. Whether used in hospitals, care homes, schools, or office buildings, Uniwipe contributes to a safer, more hygienic environment by helping to reduce cross-contamination.

Effective Disinfection Techniques: How to Tackle Surface Hygiene Head-On?

Successful disinfection techniques rely on both the correct procedure and the quality of the disinfectant. Uniwipe delivers on both fronts. The wipes are pre-saturated, easy to use, and formulated to provide broad-spectrum antimicrobial action. Their durability and coverage allow for consistent application across large and small surfaces alike.

Incorporating Uniwipe into your daily cleaning processes supports routine infection control. Their use is especially important in settings with high turnover or foot traffic, where the risk of contamination is elevated. From medical environments and school desks to kitchen surfaces and shared electronics, Uniwipe Midi-Wipes offer a practical and professional-grade solution.
