Introduction: Antibacterial Door Handles
In a post-pandemic world, everywhere you look you are likely to see increased hygiene measures throughout your daily lives. It’s fair to say that the COVID-19 situation has changed the way businesses and employers treat their workplaces, and how visitors interact with venues across the country.
Many viruses are surface-transmissive, which means they can spread between people from common touch points such as hand rails, door handles, and push pads.
To help combat this spread, special antimicrobial door handle covers are widely introduced across industries to improve the cleaning procedure of many different businesses.
Below we’ve outlined the top benefits to using these self cleaning door handle cover wraps, so get a pen and paper at the readymade notes on how these handle covers could greatly improve the hygiene in your business.

1. Quick and Efficient Self Cleaning
It’s a common question to ask what antimicrobial products actually do. They are used to kill and stop the spread of viruses, bacteria and fungi living on a certain surface and prevent further growth and transmission.
Manually wiping down and cleaning these surfaces takes time and resources, not just the cost of antibacterial wipes but also the labour time of somebody walking around and cleaning each and every door handle.
Antibacterial door handle covers work 24/7 and for up to a whole year without the need for intervention or replacement, even in the highest traffic areas of a business. Whether it is in a small office or the main lobby entrance to a building, antimicrobial door handle covers are very effective against most bacterias and viruses.
The quick installation of Veraco Safe Wrap door handle covers leaves these common touch points cleaner for longer, and free from microorganisms.

2. Highly Effective at Killing Infections
Antibacterial door handles are very effective at putting a stop to the growth of pathogens. They have the capability of reducing bacterial growth by up to 99.99% and are especially effective against the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for the Covid situation, by up to 97.49%.
Ensuring you have a clean and healthy workplace amid the pandemic is even more crucial than ever before, and surfaces need to be maintained more regularly. Self cleaning door handles will as mentioned, allow for less manual cleaning whilst maintaining the high levels of hygiene that’s to be expected from antimicrobial products in the current climate.

3. Easy, Simple Installation and Use
Another advantage to introducing antibacterial door wraps into your workplace is the ease of use when it comes to installation and removal. Whether it’s a busy Monday morning or a quiet Saturday afternoon, the effectiveness of the handle covers remains consistently high.

4. Environmentally Friendly
There is much debate over the environmental effect that some antibacterial wipes can have. Whilst in recent years more biodegradable products have become the dominant player in the market, some antimicrobial products can still be harmful for the environment.
As door handle covers do not need regular replacement and are not a single use product unlike wipes, they have a much smaller impact on the environment.

5. Useful in Multiple Scenarios
The final key benefit to antimicrobial door handles and wraps is that they can be used in almost any situation where a door handle is present. Whether this be indoors or outdoors, a healthcare institution or a library, the effectiveness of the products remains consistent.
Door handle wraps can bring a big advancement to the hygiene of any workplace from preventing the spread of all kinds of infections in every single touch.
Whilst these wipes of often produced for use in busy businesses, they can also be used in much smaller premises too where only a small select number of people work each day and doors may only be used by 2 or 3 people each day.
This is what helps makes antimicrobial door handles a much more all-round effective way of combatting the spread of pathogens.
