Disinfection

Get to Know Daycon’s Disinfectants

Keeping your facility and its occupants safe has always been a top priority at Daycon and the Coronavirus only pushed us further in that truth. Disinfecting has always been a crucial part of the cleaning process but we realize may have also been a step overlooked prior to COVID-19 that now cannot afford to be overlooked.

Disinfectants vs. Cleaners: What’s the Difference?

Cleaning is the removal of germs and dirt from surfaces.
Disinfecting is the process of killing germs on surfaces.

Which is more important, cleaning or disinfecting? Both, actually. The CDC suggests cleaning AND disinfecting surfaces frequently using EPA-registered disinfectants. The disinfectants mentioned below cover both cleaning and disinfecting in one product.
