Hygiene and pest control product manufacturer, Pelsis Group, has launched a new product to help stop the spread of COVID-19.
The Hurricane ES (Electrostatic) fogger is an Ultra-Low Volume (ULV) handheld fogging machine, and is made by the groups American-based business Curtis Dyna-Fog.
The Hurricane ES uses electrostatic technology to charge tiny droplets of disinfectant solution to create an ultra-low volume fog. The electrostatically-charged micro particles repel each other as they are dispersed into the atmosphere at high speeds, delivering quick, consistent coverage and stronger contact with all surfaces for optimum cleaning.
Initially made in Jackson USA, Pelsis now plans to localise production of the fogger at the group’s UK facility to fulfil domestic and European demand.
With regional lockdowns set to continue and strict cleaning routines enforced, businesses have a duty of care to their staff and customers. Fogging is now a commonly used method of fighting COVID-19 as part of a thorough cleaning and sanitisation process. Carried out correctly, fogging is one of the most effective ways to deep clean and rid an area of viruses and germs.
Speaking from Pelsis’ head office in Knaresborough, Yorkshire, Group CEO Andrew Milner said: “We’re very excited to bring the Hurricane ES to the UK and European markets. The electrostatic functionality of the product gives it the edge and is perfect for high touch at risk areas. Our technical teams have worked hard to get all the necessary CE approvals for sale across Europe and the result is a high-quality product which we believe can make real difference to businesses and communities.”
