Playground Cleaning and Covid 19 Playground Disinfection

CORONAVIRUS DECONTAMINATION SERVICE NOW AVAILABLE

Softwashing UK offer playground cleaning to private and public sector clients. Everyone is familiar with the risks of infection in toilets, which (hopefully) get cleaned all the time as a result. The hygiene of play areas is often neglected for months however. This means that common infections can easily be transmitted in play areas, which is of course potentially damaging to children’s health. Like any surface, play areas can also become infected with unpleasant looking organic growths, and are sadly targets for graffiti too. Dogs, birds, spills, as well as traffic, weather, and heavy footfall, all contribute to playgrounds needing a good clean every now and then. Over the summer months, when warmer weather encourages bacteria, the threat of infection increases.

At Softwashing UK we specialise in playground sanitation. We inspect for damage which can in itself pose risks, and then cleanse the play apparatus, as well as the floor areas where appropriate. It goes without saying that we remove litter too. While we thoroughly clean the surfaces of play areas to make them look clean but it is our softwashing that makes the real difference, eliminating infections and deterring their recurrence. Our anti-bacterial solutions are incredibly mild, and effective. They kill common infectants and known germs responsible for colds and flu. Having applied the softwash we perform a series of rinses with pure water to eliminate any lingering softwash products, and leave play areas safe for children, and looking great. We also remove anti-social graffiti. Concrete and hard surfaced areas, or wooden apparatus, will also get designated softwash treatment as required. Regular cleaning of play areas has beneficial effects for both community health and morale.

We will sanitise play areas at the time that suits, usually early in the morning or late at night so as to not disturb normal usage. In the unlikely event of entering an area at a time when children are using it we are fully compliant with all the normal safety procedures.

Softwashing UK take pride in cleaning playgrounds, for all children to enjoy at diminished risk.
