Sani Professional Frequently asked questions

Sanitising in hospitality refers to the process of cleaning and disinfecting various areas and surfaces within hotels, restaurants, and other hospitality establishments to ensure a safe and hygienic environment for guests and staff.

Sanitising is crucial in hospitality to prevent the spread of germs, bacteria, and viruses, including those that cause illnesses. It helps maintain a clean and safe environment, giving guests confidence in the establishment’s commitment to their health and well-being.

Commonly sanitised areas include guest rooms, lobbies, lifts, dining areas, kitchens, bathrooms, fitness centres, and frequently touched surfaces like doorknobs, handrails, and light switches.

Effective cleaning agents like wipes and other solutions containing approved disinfectants are commonly used. These products should be chosen for their ability to kill germs and viruses.
