Workplace Safety & COVID-19
Do you have your P.P.E?
At Nova Cleaning Supplies, we offer a wide variety of Personal Protective Equipment. Everything you need to protect yourself, staff, patrons and family this year.
I would like to start this week’s Blog with a “Tip Of The Day” it is in the form of a quick video and will save you hassle if you wear glasses and masks:

As a representative of your company we need to show our staff and guests “a safe environment”.
At the moment the Brant County Healy Unit requires us all to wear masks, sanitize and wash hands often, practice safe physical distancing and in many cases where working close with someone cannot be avoided a face shield should also be worn. Even after Covid vaccines are handed out we will best serve our fellow man by keeping these “Best Practices”.
Here are a few products we offer at Nova Cleaning Supplies to help you and your business create safe practices:
Germosolve 5: Disinfecting contact surfaces such as doorknobs, railings, countertops, tables, writing tools etc. the 5 stands for 5 minutes of contact time, many people are not aware, but disinfectants are not instant, they take a different amount of contact time to ensure the product works. Germosolve 5 is a ready to use product and in stock!
Aloe Hand Sanitizer: Upon request, a local supplier has created a 70%isopropyl alcohol hand sanitizer with Aloe in it. Thank-you Aloe! No more dry and cracked hands!! This has been a real luxury to have, at an extremely great value.
Anti-bacterial Hand Soap: In our workplace and home restrooms, we should be replacing our current soap to antibacterial. Why you ask? We cannot be sure our employees and children are using hot water (over 120 degrees Fahrenheit), if we provide a different soap at practically the same cost, problem solved!
Surgical 3ply Face Masks: Like most of the items we carry, these are Made in Ontario. 3-ply form fitting design, fluid resistant, comfortable fit, Strong yet soft ear bands and disposable. Personally, I rather wear a mask that has the health Canada Seal of Approval over a thin fabric mask someone’s Aunt sewed in her basement. Not that I do not trust your Aunt and her sewing skills, I just rather leave the health regulations to the professionals.
Face Shields: when we cannot be distant to people, the Health Unit has asked us to wear a mask, and a face shield, this is because Covid-19 and Flu bugs can enter the body through eyes as well. Our Face Shields are made of extremely comfortable and ergonomic materials. Once you have one on, you will barely notice.
Please Folks, not to sound like a broken record, but PLEASE promise that you will use your P.P.E.
Be Kind, love one another and stay safe
