Key Items to Know

Disinfectant Service Minneapolis & St. Paul

Disinfectants

Precleaning is essential and arguably the most important step when disinfecting. Microbes & viruses can live beneath the surface of a biofilm and if the biofilm is not removed first, the disinfectants effectiveness can be greatly reduced. Just coming in and spraying the room does not effectively disinfect.  A disinfectant MUST be allowed time to dwell on a surface. A products efficacy (kill rate) is much lower if not allowed to dwell. The CDC and product manufacturers recommend a dwell time, which can be up to 10 minutes.

ATP Testing

Adrenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an energy molecule found in all plant, animal and microbial cells.  The detection of ATP on a surface therefore indicates the presence of living biological matter.  Measuring the amount of bioluminescence from an ATP reaction provides a good indication of surface cleanliness.

High-Touch Surface Disinfectant Service Minneapolis & St. Paul

Optimized Cleaning in Minneapolis and St. Paul

Are you in need of optimized cleaning services in Minneapolis or St. Paul? Commercial Cleaning Contractors is here to help. Our skilled team of trained expert technicians provides optimized cleaning services to clients all over the Twin Cities.

What is Optimized Cleaning?

What do we mean when we say “optimized cleaning”? At CCC, we use this term to describe a category of cleaning services that are more intensive and specialized than most standard cleaning services.  With a keen focus on removing the things we can’t see with the naked eye, our team is dedicated to preparing sanitary spaces, of all sizes, for people to safely occupy.

These processes are tailored to each customer’s unique circumstances, taking a holistic approach to the overall wellness of all the building’s occupants.  We are experts at managing all the processes and personnel it takes to keep a properly sanitized environment.  Even in the largest facilities we stay on task, and on budget, by using the latest time management software, phone and tablet applications and production tables.  Our entire team is working together, invested in managing all your projects at peak efficiency.  Keeping you on schedule and on budget. 

Optimized Cleaning Services

Services that fall into our optimized cleaning category are intended to reduce the risk of spreading infectious diseases, both bacterial and viral.  Some of our optimized cleaning services include high-touch surface disinfection, electrostatic application, broad disinfection, antimicrobial coating, and ATP testing.

Up until now we have had to research and create our own protocols for sanitizing surfaces in commercial spaces.  We accomplished this using scientific, institutional, educational and medical research to create our own compendium and production protocols.  We have also received general guidelines and procedural information from all our classwork with the IICRC over the years. 

There is a standard being drafted titled BSR/IICRC S410 Standard for Infection Control During Professional Cleaning and Maintenance of the Commercial Built Environment. We are awaiting the draft work to conclude before we are able to review and comment on this standard.  Once the BSR (Board of Standards Review) passes approval of the standard, it receives the ANSI (American National Standards Institute) final approval.  From there our accredited classwork can begin on this subject.  https://iicrc.org/s410/ 

Disinfectants

Applying disinfectants daily isn’t just a process for medical clinics, doctor’s offices, hospitals and clean rooms anymore.  The focus now, more than ever, is on the health and wellness of the spaces people occupy.  People are far more likely to frequent your space if they can feel good about how it’s maintained.

With all of the accredited training we receive on everything from blood-borne pathogens to microbial growth like fungus, we have a unique understanding of all the things we can’t see.  We don’t trust just anyone to handle volatile chemicals.  They can present a danger when not handled properly.  It requires specialized training and licensure to safely handle and choose the correct disinfectant or biological control solutions for the task at hand.  High-touch surfaces like phones, doorknobs, handles, kitchen appliances, light switches, countertops, and keyboards can be like petri dishes, harboring microorganisms from all the different people who touch them. We offer one-time and ongoing disinfection services to keep all your high touch surfaces safe and clean.

Have a large space or facility? We also provide one-time, monthly, or quarterly broad disinfection services intended to inhibit the multiplication of microorganisms.  Once our technicians dawn the appropriate personal protective equipment, we then use HVLP sprayers and electrostatic sprayers, for efficient application to clean surfaces.  This broad disinfection service is ideal for large to industrial scale applications.

Antimicrobial Coating

In addition to inhibiting or removing microorganisms from facilities, we offer preemptive services like antimicrobial coating. Applying antimicrobial coating to surfaces can help prevent microorganisms from taking up residence on them. These coatings have the potential to reduce the risk of infectious disease transmission by slowing or stopping cellular reproduction.  These products are non-staining and non-leeching so you can feel safe touching any surface it’s applied to.

ATP Testing

After we apply a disinfectant or an antimicrobial coating, we use ATP testing to measure whether there is any residual biological matter on the surface we have cleaned. This allows us to ensure that our services have been thorough enough to mitigate potential disease transmission.  This testing can be integrated in to any cleaning program, giving you peace of mind that your spaces remain safe for the people that use them.

Cleanroom Cleaning/ Critical Area Cleaning

Have a production cleanroom, medical cleanroom or critical area in your facility?  Whether it’s ISO Class 5, ISO Class 7, or ISO Class 8 cleanrooms, buffer areas, anteroom, we are experts at efficiently processing these spaces to your exact specification.  We know how to remove film layers from your surfaces and capture particulates, all while preventing any unnecessary static discharges. 

Each team member assigned to this very technical position receives specific training to the tasks they perform before ever setting foot on your property, and has a dedicated list of items they are responsible for.  All the information for our services is viewable in real time to everyone involved through our web or app-based portals.
