Infection Control: Numbers Don't Lie

Company Website

Building service contractor Darryl Lawson has personal reasons for wanting cleaner public restrooms. As a kidney transplant recipient, he is more at risk than most to the viral pathogens that cause infectious diseases.

So, when he discovered a new way to detect and measure unseen biological contamination and show clients and potential clients how well their facilities were being cleaned, it got his attention.

What Lawson discovered was the ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) measurement system from Kaivac Inc., which provides accurate and traceable verification of a surface’s hygienic status. The higher the reading — the more contamination.

“Numbers don’t lie,” he explains. “Using the ATP metering systems has changed the entire way I approach my business. I now offer customers a hygiene program versus a cleaning program and my company, Facility Hygiene Solutions, is flourishing.”
