BIOHAZARD CLEAN UP & DISINFECTION

HAZGIENE’s specialised biohazard cleanup and disinfection process is delivered through our HAZGIENE Trauma Cleaning and Biohazard Removal division, which thoroughly eliminates all potentially harmful biohazards and pathogens from affected areas.

Unlike standard house or business cleaning, biohazard cleanup is a service that requires industry expertise, specialised equipment, and appropriate certifications, so avoid further damage and risk. HAZGIENE has developed a 5-step disinfection process backed by scientific research and experience. We thoroughly wash and treat all potentially harmful biohazards from affected areas and guarantee our work.

Why is proper disinfection so important?

In cases of a death or accident where blood is present, the risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens (BBP) and biohazards (ranging from viruses such as Hepatitis to bacteria such as MRSAP) is present. Statistics from the CDC show that 1 in 24 people either have Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or HIV. Therefore, HAZGIENE has developed and refined a safety-focused, science-based remediation process that protects the health and well-being of our customers and employees. Cleanup protocols follow OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogen Standards, which include practising universal precautions and equipping our teams with appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). We can also provide our customers with PPE if they need to access affected areas. Our goal is to minimise exposure risk for all parties involved.

We know that the improper treatment of blood and bodily fluids can lead to further health and safety risks. When blood spills are merely spot cleaned with topical solutions, then thorough disinfection has not happened. At best, this cursory surface cleaning has merely suppressed the lingering bacteria; at worst, it may have missed entire sections where blood or fluids have pooled underneath carpets or floors. This causes two problems: The likely return of unpleasant odours and the growth of additional bacterial colonies. The HAZGIENE remediation process mitigates these concerns. We verify our work using ATP tests, which measures cell activity, including bloodborne pathogens. Only when the test registers zero RLU (registered light units) are we satisfied with the level of cleanliness. This test adds technology, measurability, and accountability to our biohazard remediation process.

Our 5-step remediation process and line of cleaning agents protect your health and safety, and we have a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee.

To many, biohazard remediation (and its commonly used alternative, crime scene cleanup) sounds like standard cleaning. The two services could not be more different. Biohazard remediation refers to the removal, cleaning, and disinfection of blood, bodily fluids, and other potentially harmful pathogens in affected areas after a death, accident, or communicable disease outbreak (such as Coronavirus). Because of the high exposure risk to bloodborne pathogens, biohazard remediation is a specialty service that requires proper training, equipment, certification, and licensing.

The HAZTECH remediation process

ASSESS

Assess
We complete an initial walkthrough and OSHA-mandated employee-safety hazard assessment of the scene.

CONTROL AND SETUP

Control and Setup
We use OSHA's reccommended cross-contamination protocol to control the affected area by securing and separating it from other parts of the structure.

REMOVE

Remove
We remove all visible traces of blood and biological materials from the affected area. This is the most dangerous step of the remediation process.

CLEAN, DISINFECT, AND DEODORISE

Clean Disinfect and deodorise
After removal, we clean, disinfect, and deodorise affected surfaces using EPA-rated disinfectants.

VERIFY

Verify
Upon completion, we use adenosine triphosphate (ATP) testing technology to guarantee hospital-level standards of disinfection.

We are very happy with the service from HAZTECH.
