According to one study[2] published in June 2020, at the end of the first containment period set up in France to try to stem the spread of Covid-19, 99% of French people now consider cleanliness to be essential in places open to the public.
Why call on a cleaning and cleaning and related services ?
Cleanliness is more than just a convenience; it is an essential health and economic issue, with a central objective: to protect the health and safety of employees:
- Compliance with health standards
On the front line since the start of the pandemic, cleaning companies have implemented a range of prevention, information and training initiatives for their operatives, to ensure their health and safety. In addition to the usual cleaning of company premises, they now carry out thorough cleaning of surfaces in contact with hands, such as social areas, staircase handrails, door handles, elevator buttons, toilets and so on.[3] These measures ensure that a company's premises are optimally sanitized, in strict compliance with health and safety standards.

And because they use products perfectly adapted to your company's coatings and equipment, they'll preserve them.
