With the recent pandemic being what everyone has been talking about this year, there is a great deal of focus on how to protect against viral infection. Face masks and frequent hand washing are touted as effective ways to avoid becoming infected. However, a major potential for bacterial infection can come through touching things like door handles, elevator buttons, and other points of frequent contact. Offices and commercial environments have plenty of these, leading to a significant risk of infection. Becoming infected in this way is considered to be cross contamination.

What Is Cross Contamination

It’s vital to understand what cross contamination is and how dangerous pathogens can spread. Basically, what occurs is that someone will pick up pathogens, unbeknownst to them, when they are somewhere that harbors microbes, fungi, and other unwanted hitchhikers. This could be a bathroom, as an example. Then, they go on with their day and spread those pathogens elsewhere, such as the door to an office. The end result is cross contamination, where others pick up those same pathogens and keep on spreading the dangerous hitchhikers wherever they go.

Imagine how many germs a door handle or elevator button can spread. Eventually, this will lead to people becoming sick, which means higher rates of absenteeism, reduced productivity, and even greater employee turnover.

Disinfecting potential points of cross contamination contact is essential to keep in mind. Thankfully, there is a highly effective and simple solution. It involves the use of antimicrobial film being applied to door handles, buttons, and any other central point of contact that many touch over the course of a day.

Door handles are easily one of the most frequently-touched things in any office or commercial environment. By applying a pliable and conforming antimicrobial film, you can ensure all handles, buttons, and other points of frequent contact stop cross contamination, yet do not take away from the aesthetics of the areas it covers.

By using the disinfecting antimicrobial film, you will be protecting people from bacteria, mold, mildew, and fungi. The included cleaning agent on the film becomes activated with light, air pressure, and direct contact by someone with their hand.

Other great features of antimicrobial film include being non-toxic and waterproof. Also, it is resistant to most chemical agents, including bleach, alcohol, and common cleaning products. You don’t have to worry about it becoming easily damaged, which ensures it keeps protecting any office or commercial environment it’s used in.
