Specialist providers of disinfection and decontamination services since 2014
With clients ranging from the NHS, research laboratories and pharmaceutical manufacturers to nursing homes, nurseries, schools, transport providers and international blue-chip corporations, Sanondaf treatments achieve a 4 to 6 log rate (99.99% to 99.9999%) for the destruction of over 280 harmful viruses, bacteria, fungi, mould, yeast and other microorganisms.
Sanondaf UK offer a specialist division providing disinfection and decontamination services to the live events sector, supporting a safer re-launch of the industry as lock down restrictions ease.
Pulling from our 7 years’ experience of disinfecting and decontaminating hospital, laboratory, passenger ferries, manufacturing and hotel premises, where staff are present 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, we are comfortable working within tight timescales and complex logistical schedules. Importantly, rooms and areas can be treated rapidly and back in use as little as 15 minutes.
With considerable experience disinfecting indoor spaces up to 50,000m³, and outdoor structures like marquees and performance stages, we know that a ‘one size’ approach does not suit or fit all requirements. Utilising two unique forms of advanced technology, dry vapour fogging and electrostatic spraying, we tailor our approach for each job to ensure maximum efficacy is achieved and that treatments are applied safely, in a manner and time suited to the needs of our clients.
The advanced technology of our fogging device has been designed specifically to combat airborne microorganisms, as well as those which are found on surfaces. This treatment result is especially important now, during the Coronavirus pandemic. Sars-Cov-2, the virus which causes COVID-19, has now been recognised by the international scientific community as a virus that can be transmitted by aerosols (tiny airborne viral particles breathed out by those infected) when people spend prolonged periods in enclosed spaces, as well transmission via contaminated surfaces.
Our dry fogging and electrostatic treatments are suitable for use in all atmospheres and on all surfaces, including electrical equipment, food preparation surfaces, stainless steel, fabrics and soft furnishings.
The essential ‘need to know’ when considering any disinfection and decontamination service provider, is:
What chemical is being used and has the application method been clinically tested to prove the efficacy claims?
Sanondaf uses a patented broad spectrum, stabilised hydrogen peroxide solution, manufactured to ISO9001/13485 standards and authorised for use as a biocide by the ECHA (European Chemicals Agency). Dispersed as a dry vapour (HPV), Sanondaf treatments hold the following EN certifications: BS EN 14476 – virucidal efficacy; BS EN 1276 – bactericidal efficacy; BS EN 1650 – Fungicidal / yeasticidal efficacy; BS EN 13704 – Sporicidal efficacy; and BS EN 13448 – Mycobactericidal efficacy.
However, it is important to be transparent – a BS EN certification only confirms that a chemical can be classed as a surface disinfection, NOT that the treatment method used to administer is has been tested and verified.
Which is why we are proud to confirm that Sanondaf UK’s HPV treatment methods have been clinically tested and verified, achieving a 4 to 6 log rate (99.99% to 99.9999%) for the destruction of over 280 harmful viruses, bacteria, bacterial endospores, fungi, mould, yeast and other microorganisms, including:
- Influenza A (H1N1 & H5N1) – an enveloped virus: 5 log (99.999%)
- Coronavirus – an enveloped virus: 4 log (99.99%)
- Clostridium difficile (inc spores) – a gram-positive bacteria: 6 log (99.9999%)
- MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) – a gram-positive bacteria: 4 log (99.99%)
- Norovirus – a non-enveloped virus: 4 log (99.99%)
- Mycobacterium tuberculosis – a gram-positive bacteria: 4 log (99.99%)
- Legionella – a gram-negative bacteria: 5 log (99.999%)
- Escherichia coli -a gram-negative bacteria: 5 log (99.999%)
Importantly, rooms and areas can be treated rapidly and back in use as little as 15 minutes.
Our treatments are non-corrosive, contain no toxic ingredients and our application methods ensure they are not harmful to people, animals or the environment. Unlike other disinfectants (such as chlorine compounds, quaternary ammonium compounds and chlorine dioxide) the HPV used in our treatments naturally decomposes into water (H2O) and oxygen (O2), thus ensuring no harmful chemical residue remains. It is safe for use in ALL settings, including healthcare operating theatres, critical care units, and is also CASA (Civil Aviation Safety Authority) approved.
