What Is Disinfectant Fogging?

Fogging is a better choice for facility sterilization. It can eliminate all contaminants in your cleanroom, even those hidden in hard-to-reach spots — between the floorboards, behind cabinets, or in the cracks between a row of desks.

How Does Disinfectant Fogging Work?

Disinfectant fogging starts with a solution of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful chemical disinfectant that can rapidly eliminate germs, bacteria, viruses, spores, and fungi, as the CDC has confirmed.

Fogging uses liquid H2O2 to create a thick disinfectant fog. The decontamination services team will use a room-sanitizing machine to disperse the hydrogen peroxide fogging treatment throughout your workspace, so it settles into every nook and cranny, leaving no spot untouched. The result is a truly pristine environment, free of contaminants and pollutants.

Is Disinfectant Fogging Safe?

As long as you work with an experienced, professional team, disinfectant fogging is one of the safest ways to sterilize your cleanroom. A good decontamination services team will shut off your HVAC unit and ensure the space is evacuated before they get to work.

They will also be able to tell you when you can return to work in the fogged environment. Bear in mind that you won’t need to evacuate the entire building; just the room being fogged. Normally, the process is smooth and easy, and people can get back to work in as little as an hour.

Fogging has become increasingly popular among cleanroom managers and anyone involved in maintaining a critical workspace. Fogging provides a level of reliability that is hard to match with conventional methods. Contact us for more information.
