For yourself or your business, it’s important to know what are the right products to use to clean and disinfect your hard surfaces. Not only do you want to use products that clean and disinfect well, you also need to think about choosing products that are not harmful to your health and the health of those around you.
Types of disinfectants
When it comes to choosing a cleaning and disinfecting product for yourself or your business, you’ll notice that there are several types of products. Some are approved by Health Canada and some are not. Depending on your needs and preferences, you will be able to decide on which type of surface cleaner to purchase. In addition, you will be able to select the form of the product, which can vary and be one of the following:
- Solution
- Liquid
- Wipe
- Aerosol
- Spray
Furthermore, the ingredients vary from one product to another. Some contain alcohol while others do not. What you need to know is that alcohol is a powerful disinfectant and is an excellent choice, depending on how you want to use it.
How to check if a product is approved by Health Canada
The variety of surface cleaners is quite big and it has been increasing over the years. Health Canada has implemented a coding program to identify products that are effective and approved.
To find out if your products are accepted by Health Canada, you must look for the letters NPN or DIN followed by eight numbers on the product label. If the product has one, it confirms that it is authorized for sale by Health Canada. For more information, you can consult the regulations for health products in Canada.
