A Surface That Looks Clean May Not Actually Be Clean

Door handles, light switches, handrails, taps, dispensers, chair armrests, and other contact surfaces are touched by people throughout the day. These are often the surfaces that are most easily overlooked during cleaning or cleaned without giving much thought to the process.

The e-learning course “The Science of Cleaning Contact Surface” helps participants understand which contact surfaces require attention, how to clean them effectively and efficiently, and how to assess whether cleanliness has truly been achieved.

This short and practical course is designed for cleaning operatives, supervisors, cleaning managers, and organisations where cleanliness, hygiene, and quality are an important part of daily operations.

Approximately 32 minutes of practical knowledge to help make contact surface cleaning more consistent, effective, and reliable.

The course has been developed by Puhastusekspert OÜ – a training and consulting centre specialising in professional cleaning.
