Human hygiene and disinfection

Pathogens spread quickly wherever people gather. From healthcare facilities and laboratories to public services, diving and travel, reliable cleaning, disinfection and hand hygiene are essential for infection prevention. Biosecurity BV supplies broad-spectrum disinfectants with proven, registered efficacy and the expertise needed for correct, safe use. Products are generally available through specialist distributors and wholesalers.

The challenge

  • Rapid transmission of viruses and bacteria through surfaces, hands and instruments.
  • A need for demonstrably effective, registered products supported by clear protocols.
  • Safe use with the correct dose, contact time and personal protection.
  • Different requirements in healthcare, laboratories, public services, sport and travel.

Our approach

  1. 01Use broad-spectrum disinfectants with registered efficacy against relevant pathogens.
  2. 02Disinfect or cold-sterilise instruments when heat is not an option.
  3. 03Maintain consistent hand hygiene as the first barrier against transmission.
  4. 04Always clean before disinfecting.
  5. 05Match the product and protocol to the specific setting and risk profile.
