Tips to Prepare for Cold and Flu Season with Antimicrobial Technology

After prioritizing safety and cleanliness during the COVID-19 pandemic, future cold and flu seasons are especially significant. Accordingly, individuals, families and businesses must prepare for cold and flu season by intentionally utilizing products with the most up-to-date antimicrobial technology. With long-lasting germ kill and advanced antimicrobial technology, high-quality cleaning and disinfecting solutions go beyond the capabilities of traditional disinfectants. Learn how to best prepare for cold and flu season and work with ActizoneTM antimicrobial technology to keep surfaces clean and protected from germs for 24 hours.

 

Look for a long-lasting antimicrobial disinfectant

Long-lasting antimicrobial disinfectants offer durable protection from germs throughout the challenges of cold and flu season. A 24-hour antimicrobial disinfectant kills bacteria and viruses quickly. It continues eliminating these germs for hours after being used on a surface, which means applying an effective disinfectant product once is equivalent to disinfecting surfaces multiple times every day with a traditional cleaning solution. ActizoneTM antimicrobial technology delivers long-lasting surface disinfection with our proprietary polymer and high-performing antimicrobial active ingredients. With 24-hour disinfection ensured with ActizoneTM, this antimicrobial technology provides effective germ protection on surfaces even after repeated contamination and continual contact.

 

Combine cleaning and disinfecting benefits

Surface care products that clean surfaces and provide disinfection benefits allow customers to spend less time cleaning and provide simple and reliable protection throughout cold and flu season. Additionally, if a disinfecting product is immediately followed by a cleaning product wiped on a surface or vice versa, that cleaning product may potentially eliminate the germ-killing performance of the disinfectant. Therefore, using cleaning and disinfecting products that are not designed to work synergistically may expose consumers to harmful germs when they think they are protected. A long-lasting disinfecting cleaning product like ActizoneTM with antimicrobial technology means consumers can rely on one simple product applied once a day to clean and disinfect surfaces around homes and businesses and stay safe throughout cold and flu season.

 

Read and follow the instructions of antimicrobial technology

To take full advantage of the antimicrobial technology in disinfectants and cleaners, consumers must use all products according to the specific instructions. While one disinfecting cleaning wipe may only need 30 seconds to dry for effective performance, a spray cleaner may require several minutes before it effectively disinfects a surface. If cleaning and disinfecting products are not used correctly, consumers may believe they are protected from germs when their surfaces may actually be susceptible to recontamination or allow germ reproduction. Individuals and businesses who closely follow the instructions of ActizoneTM products receive 24-hour antimicrobial protection on a variety of surfaces and feel confident in their safety throughout cold and flu season.
