30/03/2020 at 4:04 pm #76615Hi all,
In regards to the cleaning and disinfection of the industrial safety goggles that you refer to in your e-mail Cate, we are looking at cleaning these after use with a chemical that has a detergent and sanitising action.
We are looking at using a receptacle with a lid to transport the goggles to a pan room to conduct the cleaning.
Would it be better to soak the goggles in the receptacle, so that we could achieve cleaning and disinfection of both the goggles and the receptacle or would the application of the chemical using handtowels/a disposable cloth be better?
Either way, we would rinse both the goggles and the receptacle thoroughly with cold water afterwards and leave to air dry.
I am not sure about how much contact time would be needed and if after several ‘cleans’ would the goggles become cloudy?
Any advice anyone?Kind Regards,
Helen Feld
