Action needed on disinfection
03 April 2014
P&G Professional has revealed the results of a major European study into public attitudes and perceptions of cleanliness and disinfection standards in hospitality establishments and care homes in the UK, France and Germany.

The survey found that 93% of consumers expect businesses to do more to ensure their premises are germ-free and over 90% expect business operators to disinfect everyday as part of their daily cleaning routine.
"The startling results of our survey shows operators need to be in tune with their customers’ needs – both in terms of delivering the cleaning and disinfection standards required but also ensuring they create a memorable experience for their guests. This is why we urge businesses to take action today by investing in high quality antibacterial solutions to eliminate the spread of germs and viruses and ensure consumers’ expectations are fully met,” Jayne Clark from P&G Professional said.
The survey also revealed that consumers are extremely cautious about cleaning and disinfection standards when eating out. Over 40% of people confessed to wiping their cutlery or crockery before they begin to eat in a restaurant.
P&G Professional has a range of high quality antibacterial cleaning solutions to help operators keep up with disinfection standards in bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms and dining rooms.
