Portable Disinfecting Wipes contain alcohol (at least 60% by volume) and other additives such as chlorhexidine and benzalkonium chloride to protect against a wide range of disease-causing bacteria. As a result, they have the added ability to disinfect frequently touched surfaces in crowded public places, such as doorknobs, touchpads, equipment, work surfaces, and more. Disinfecting wipes are just as effective as hand sanitizer in killing germs. In fact, the higher the alcohol content, the more germ-killing it is.
These wipes also contain a small amount of detergent to clean oily residues. While the alcohol in disinfecting wipes is enough to destroy the cell membranes of microorganisms, it is not enough to affect human skin cells. They are made of cellulose, polyester, or other absorbent fabrics and are designed to collect bacterial residues.
On average, one disinfecting wipe can be used to clean 1 to 2 square feet of surface.
Create a cleaning regime
It is only effective if there is no visible residue such as food or soil. Therefore, before using the wipes, large particles of waste must be removed from the surface to be disinfected
A variety of natural wipes can be used to clean visible debris before using Portable Disinfecting Wipes. Afterwards, the surface must be left for a few minutes to air dry instead of wiping with a dry cloth.
All wipes should be disposed of in the manner indicated on the back of the package. Disposal through pipes may clog pipes. There are many biodegradable wipes available that will break down in nature and will not leave a positive carbon footprint.
If you have allergies or health issues, consult a doctor before using natural or disinfecting wipes on a daily basis.
