US Janitorial Inc uses Clorox Total 360 Electrostatic Sprayer
We don’t want you left in the dark about how to best disinfect your facility – not only for COVID-19 but for all viruses that are floating around these days. Between salmonella, E.coli, MRSA, Coronavirus, influenza, and human coronavirus, it’s obvious why wiping down surfaces isn’t enough anymore.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Total 360 Electrostatic Sprayer atomizes and charges Clorox-approved disinfecting and sanitizing solutions with force greater than gravity. Electrostatic technology enables superior coverage of Clorox trusted solutions in hard-to-reach places such as the side, underside, and backside of surfaces. It is intended for use in airports, ambulances, athletic facilities, public restrooms, correctional facilities, daycare centers, hotels, institutional kitchens, laundry rooms, offices, and schools. The Clorox Total 360 System, including the sprayer and solutions, helps keep your facility healthier while also saving you time, money, and labor. Compared to a trigger sprayer, this system uses 65 percent less solution, works four times faster, and covers 18,000 square feet per hour.
US Janitorial has been an innovative leader in the industry and one of the first in the area to institute this program in all janitorial closets and workspaces.

PREVENTION
Workplace Wellness starts with prevention. A little pre-planning and preparation can go a long way.
PROMOTE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

Is there an expert who can teach your team about the proper way to wash hands (even if it’s a webinar)?

HIGH-TOUCH
AREAS
Would it surprise you to know a virus can survive on hard surfaces for up to 24 hours? It’s true. Doorknobs, microwave handles, coffee pots, and many other high-touch areas are only as clean as the last hand that touched it.
It’s clear why regularly sanitizing these spots is an important part of maintaining workplace wellness. Below are various preventative steps to help minimize the accumulation of germs.
HIGH TOUCH ITEMS
Surfaces and objects that are frequently touched by employees, occupants, clients, or visitors at your building may include:
Public and High Touched Areas
