POST OFFICE: COVID 19 – ENHANCED CLEANING: ZOONO FOGGING

I wish to inform Branches of a cleaning system called Fogging which is to be introduced into all workplaces (including CViT vans) where the Post Office provider Servest currently performs a clean. It will be conducted on a monthly basis and in addition to the regular cleaning schedule.

Fogging works by sanitising surface areas within buildings and vehicles by creating an invisible shield on surfaces. It gets to work immediately and, once the treatment is complete, the space is free of any pathogens. It is safe to access a treated area approximately 15 minutes afterwards.

Fogging is a safe, non-hazardous, water-based product that has a toxicity rating similar to Vitamin C. It is colourless and odourless and provides antibacterial, antiviral, anti-fungal and anti-algal protection without causing fumes.

Attached are two identical Joint Statements (one for Crowns and one for Supply Chain) which explain the benefits of Fogging and the process. The benefits include:

• It eradicates any airborne pathogens and surface bacteria
• It is odourless, non-leaching, non-corrosive and completely safe for humans and animals
• The treatment lasts for up to 30 days
• It is environmentally friendly

This additional safety measure will give our members added reassurance and confidence that all parties are working hard to ensure their workplace is as safe as it can be in these difficult times. Reassuringly this product has been tried and tested in the NHS and in Transport for London.

Yours sincerely

Andy Furey
Assistant Secretary
