Clarke said, “Healthcare facilities are realizing that traditional cleaning products (cotton string mops and cotton bar towels) rented from large commercial laundries are ineffectual and can be a liability. These commercial laundries have little or no understanding of infection prevention, many do not have complete separation between soiled and clean products in their plants - they rent door mats, uniforms, first aid kits and in some cases, shred paper - they do not process hospital linens nor are they comfortable or experienced in dealing with blood borne pathogens.”

“Furthermore,” Clarke continued, “if they do rent microfiber products the offering is minimal, their plants are not set up to handle a color-coded, ONEperROOM infection prevention system, a strategy required by healthcare to protect the patient and control HAIs.”
