Electrostatic cleaning is the method of spraying a product through the use of a special electrostatic gun delivering electrostatic treatment to premises. The technology in the gun deploys the product as a very fine mist, travelling through the air and quickly killing surface based pathogens. The technology in the gun deploys the product with a positive charge. This charge means that the droplets in the mist wrap around all surfaces, and don't just hit what is directly in front of them.
An example of an electrostatic treatment would be spraying chair legs - the products will wrap round the whole leg, and not just the front surface it is sprayed towards as shown in the below image.
This means that the process is quick, efficient and doesn't require the moving of bulky items of furniture. This is preferable for premises that may have large amounts of furniture, as well as heavy furniture that may be difficult to move, or is simply impossible to move/
What is the difference Between Electrostatic Sprayers and Foggers?
| FOGGING PROS | FOGGING CONS |
| Quicker process as no manual application | Slower to dry meaning longer room downtime |
| Air disinfection kills pathogens | Uneven distribution |
| ELECTROSTATIC PROS | ELECTROSTATIC CONS |
| More efficient - less product wastage as more targeted process | Risk of human error if the process is not completed by highly trained staff |
| Short waiting process - dries quickly as chemicals are targeted and land quickly | More time consuming potentially for application dependant on the size of the premises |
Whilst this process is great in theory, it is useless if the wrong cleaning products are selected. We have the knowledge of the best products to tackle all pathogens.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, we have used this cleaning technology in a number of premise types, including offices, schools and retirement living premises.
Some cleaning companies try and offer this service as a quick fix, but don't fully understand the process. It is very much a two stage process, with C coming before D as it does in the alphabet. Cleaning must be completed before disinfection by electrostatic cleaning technology, or else the process is a waste of time and money.
At Green Fox Cleaning we have full knowledge, processes and training to safely and efficiently deliver electrostatic cleaning and electrostatic treatment processes to premises of all sizes, with minimal disruption to those either working or residing at them.
The below video demonstrates the process after a deep clean has been completed.
