We have always depended on medicine and vaccines to cure and prevent diseases. However, with the rise of covid-19, there is need to lean more on prevention measures. This is why providing hand sanitizers and disinfection wipes is necessary and all limousine Montreal companies need to adhere to the guideline.
Hand sanitizers contain 70 percent alcohol which fights viruses and bacteria from dirty surfaces. On the other hand, disinfection wipes help in the control/killing of bacteria and viruses.
Here is why hand sanitizers and disinfection wipes should be provided to all limousine passengers.
-
Hand sanitizers contains glycerin
Most hand sanitizers contain glycerin which is important in helping passenger’s skin retain moisture. It also prevents skin dryness from a lot of hand washing with soap and water.
Hand sanitizers are therefore safe to use on the skin. Providing it to limousine Montreal passengers shows your commitment to keeping them safe amid this pandemic period.
-
Reduce illness
Studies show that using hand sanitizers is likely to reduce illness by 20 percent. Passengers using hand sanitizers regularly are less likely to contract the virus even if they come into contact with people suffering from covid-19.
Possible areas of infection include inhaling air bone particles, contact with body fluids like sweat on seats, passenger’s doors and windows and inhaling virus particles that may be lingering in the atmosphere.
The risks of transmission are greatly reduced once you provide hand sanitizers.
-
Good packaging
Most hand sanitizers are packaged in bottles that are well sealed. The bottles are also portable and you can comfortably provide distribute them to your passengers. Due to good design of the bottles, it is very easy to offer all time protection to your passengers.
Use of Disinfection wipes
Besides using hand sanitizers, you can also provide disinfection wipes. These are single use wipes soaked in disinfectant solutions. The solution is mostly hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite or quaternary ammonium. Disinfecting wipes offer protection to your passengers in the following ways:
- They are all purpose and your passengers can use them to clean dirt and germs.
- They kill viruses and bacteria.
Using disinfecting wipes appropriately
When using disinfecting wipes, you need to ensure that they remain wet on the surface. This means that your passengers need to leave their hands wet for some minutes for efficiency. If they use the wipes to clean their seats or car handles, advise them to allow the liquid to settle on the surface for a few minutes before they get into the limo.
Passengers should also be careful not to ingest food and water when using disinfecting wipes. They need to only use the wipes on external surfaces.
Disinfecting wipes will generally clean contaminated vehicles cabins, seats, handles and the interior of the vehicles.
While providing hand sanitizers and disinfecting wipes for passengers is efficient, it should not replace hand washing with soap and water. Hand washing kills many germs. For effective fight against germs and bacteria, they should be used together. You should therefore encourage passengers to also hand wash.
