In 2019 and 2020, a new strain of the coronavirus called COVID-19 grabbed the world by the throat. It was unlike most viruses experts had seen, and it spread across the globe at a rapid rate.

Such was the infection rate that no surface was deemed safe once a case had been diagnosed in a home or business. Thorough cleaning had to be undertaken to prevent anyone else from catching it in that same area. 

While standard cleaning companies can take care of general mess and hygiene, dealing with infections and diseases, such as COVID-19, would take a different type of expert. It would require someone who was used to dealing with dangerous substances or environments and had access to the best cleaning products and personal protective equipment (PPE).

Traditionally, Chemcare focuses on asbestos and meth, but their services are now required in homes and businesses where infection control is paramount. Read on to learn why Chemcare’s specialist team can be called upon for disinfection and sanitation of your home or business.

They are trained specialists

Chemcare forms part of CC Group NZ, which consists of sister companies Crewcare and Crewcut. The team at Crewcare provides expert commercial cleaning services, which complements the health and safety expertise of those working for Chemcare. 

When you hire Chemcare for infection control, sanitisation, and COVID-19 cleaning in New Zealand, you are hiring a team that is certified in quality management and health and safety to international standards. Therefore, you get to enjoy peace of mind that practices and measures are in place to keep you and the Chemcare team safe.   

They are used to working in hazardous situations

Before COVID-19 infected hundreds of thousands of people globally, Chemcare’s team focused on asbestos management, testing, and removal, as well as meth clean-ups. Now, they combine their high-quality equipment with their training in high-risk situations to focus on infection control and sanitisation.

They know just how important it is to stay safe in potentially risky situations, and have been used to managing high-risk asbestos fibres and meth residue. Now, they apply the same principles to managing a virus that has the potential to cause significant illness and fatalities. Their expertise can offer home and business owners much-needed peace of mind. 

They have the right equipment

Most people are now more clued up about PPE than ever before, all because COVID-19 required them to think about the potential for illness without it. However, the Chemcare team has been relying on such equipment for decades. 

They utilise high-end PPE from top to toe, not to mention a multi-chamber decontamination chamber, strict waste disposal measures, and the most rigid decontamination standards. You can rest assured that after lockdown, our team will not take any chances when it comes to their and your health and safety. 

They know what cleaning products to use

The team at Chemcare are experts in the correct type and use of products to disinfect areas contaminated with COVID-19. They use a combination of disinfectant and fogging chemicals to clean all but 0.0001 percent of viruses, bacteria, and viruses.

With the help of Crewcare workers, Chemcare will shut down a home or business for cleaning, then utilise a stand-down period that allows the air to settle. With approved chemicals, they undertake the fogging process while wearing only the best PPE equipment on the market.

After the chemicals take effect, they then wipe down all surfaces for your peace of mind. Everything from window and door frames to benches and counters will be sanitised and disinfected for peace of mind.

Who can benefit from Chemcare’s services for infection control?

Thousands of households throughout New Zealand may end up with a family member suffering from COVID-19. Thousands of businesses may have staff that has it too. Once the lockdown period is over, and those people recover, there is always a chance the virus remains. Infection control services and disinfection can offer much-needed relief.

However, even households and workplaces that aren’t affected by this coronavirus may see the value in such a cleaning service. Several weeks staying at home or being away from work can take its toll on your property, and starting with a fresh, clean slate can make a world of difference.

What happens now?

It’s time to get Chemcare on the case. Let them prepare and implement a COVID-19 management plan for your home or business. They will establish risk management, the selection of chemicals they need, and what health and safety processes and procedures they need to follow. They can even develop and implement a disinfection plan for any workplace or space.

Chemcare consists of biologists, chemists, and health and safety professionals who boast the highest qualifications in their field. Allow them to take care of COVID-19 for you once New Zealand makes the shift downward from Alert Level 4.
