A Healthier Facility for Everyone Inside
Traditional cleaning reaches the surfaces people see. Electrostatic disinfection reaches the surfaces people touch, breathe near, and overlook. By charging disinfectant particles so they actively seek out and wrap around every contour of every surface, this technology delivers a level of coverage that manual wiping simply cannot achieve.
Reduced Illness and Absenteeism
High-touch surfaces like door handles, elevator buttons, and shared equipment harbor pathogens that spread illness through your workforce. Electrostatic disinfection eliminates these threats at the source, helping to keep your team healthy, productive, and present.
Full-Surface Coverage in Less Time
Electrostatic sprayers apply disinfectant up to four times faster than manual wiping while reaching undersides, backsides, and recessed areas that wipe-down methods miss entirely. This means faster service with superior results and minimal disruption to your operations.
Confidence for Occupants and Visitors
Employees, patients, students, and customers feel safer knowing your facility uses advanced disinfection technology. This confidence translates into higher satisfaction, better retention, and a reputation as a responsible, health-conscious organization.
Documented Compliance and Accountability
Every treatment is logged with the disinfectant used, EPA registration number, dwell time, and areas covered. This documentation supports your health and safety compliance program and provides proof of due diligence in the event of an inquiry or audit.

How Electrostatic Disinfection Works
The science behind electrostatic spraying is straightforward: charged particles are attracted to surfaces the way a magnet is attracted to metal. Here is how we apply that science in your facility.
Facility Assessment and Treatment Plan
We evaluate your facility layout, identify high-risk zones, and determine the appropriate disinfectant for your environment. Medical facilities, food service operations, schools, and general offices each have different EPA registration requirements, and we match the chemistry accordingly.
Pre-Clean of Visibly Soiled Surfaces
Disinfectants work best on clean surfaces. Before spraying, our team removes visible soil, dust, and organic matter from high-touch areas. This pre-clean ensures the disinfectant makes direct contact with the surface for maximum pathogen kill.
Electrostatic Application
A trained technician applies the EPA-registered disinfectant using a professional-grade electrostatic sprayer. The positively charged mist wraps around objects, coating front, back, sides, and undersides evenly. The entire room receives 360-degree coverage in minutes.
Dwell Time and Verification
We observe the manufacturer-specified dwell time, during which the disinfectant actively destroys bacteria, viruses, and fungi on contact. After the dwell period, surfaces are safe to touch with no wiping required. We document the treatment time, product lot number, and areas covered for your records.
Reporting and Scheduling
You receive a treatment certificate listing every area serviced, the EPA-registered product used, and the technician responsible. We then schedule your next treatment based on the recommended frequency for your facility type and risk profile.
Investment in a Healthier Workplace
Per-square-foot and per-visit pricing
Electrostatic disinfection is priced by the square footage treated, the frequency of service, and the type of disinfectant required. Medical and food-service facilities that need hospital-grade, EPA List N disinfectants may cost slightly more per application than general office treatments due to product specifications.
We offer single-event treatments for outbreak response and scheduled programs for ongoing protection. Recurring clients benefit from reduced per-visit pricing and priority scheduling during high-demand periods such as flu season.
Every quote includes the exact disinfectant to be used with its EPA registration number, the square footage to be treated, the estimated service time, and the all-inclusive price. There are no material surcharges or hidden fees.
We disclose the exact EPA-registered products we use, their safety data sheets, and complete pricing before any treatment begins.
Situations Where Electrostatic Disinfection Makes the Difference
Confirmed Illness Outbreak
When multiple employees, patients, or students report the same illness, rapid disinfection stops the spread. Our emergency response team can deploy within hours to treat affected areas and break the transmission chain.
Seasonal Flu and Cold Prevention
Scheduled treatments during fall and winter months reduce the microbial load on shared surfaces before illnesses peak. Many of our clients add weekly or bi-weekly electrostatic treatments from October through March as a proactive health measure.
High-Traffic Event Preparation
Conferences, open houses, patient intake surges, and back-to-school periods bring more people and more pathogens into your facility. A pre-event treatment ensures your space is as safe as possible for attendees and staff.
Regulatory or Accreditation Compliance
Healthcare, childcare, and food-service operations face strict disinfection requirements from regulatory bodies. Electrostatic treatment with EPA-registered products provides documented proof that you meet or exceed those standards.
Manual Wipe-Down vs. Electrostatic Disinfection
Many facilities rely on janitorial staff to wipe surfaces with disinfectant spray. While this approach addresses visible surfaces, it leaves significant gaps in coverage. Here is how the two methods compare.
| Factor | In-House | Professional |
|---|---|---|
| Coverage | Only surfaces directly wiped receive disinfectant. Undersides, backsides, and recessed areas are routinely missed. | Charged particles wrap around every contour of every object, delivering true 360-degree coverage including hidden surfaces. |
| Speed | A single classroom or office floor can take hours to wipe down manually surface by surface. | Electrostatic sprayers cover the same area in a fraction of the time, often four to ten times faster than manual methods. |
| Product Efficacy | Staff may use consumer-grade products or dilute concentrates incorrectly, reducing kill effectiveness. | EPA-registered commercial disinfectants are mixed to exact specifications and applied at the correct volume per square foot. |
| Dwell Time Compliance | Staff often wipe surfaces before the disinfectant has sat long enough to achieve its rated kill time. | Electrostatic application leaves a fine mist that remains undisturbed for the full manufacturer-specified dwell time. |
| Documentation | Rarely tracked or documented, leaving gaps in compliance records. | Every treatment is logged with product, lot number, dwell time, areas treated, and technician name. |
Electrostatic disinfection is not a replacement for daily cleaning but rather a powerful layer of protection on top of it. The combination of comprehensive coverage, speed, and documented compliance makes it the standard for facilities that take occupant health seriously.
How Often Should Your Facility Be Disinfected?
The ideal treatment frequency depends on your facility type, occupant density, and risk tolerance. Healthcare settings with immunocompromised populations benefit from daily or every-other-day treatments, while standard office environments may only need weekly or monthly applications.
Seasonal adjustments are common. Many Delaware businesses increase frequency during the fall and winter illness season, then scale back to monthly maintenance during warmer months when airborne pathogen transmission typically declines.
We work with your operations team to establish a baseline schedule and then refine it based on occupancy trends, illness reports, and any regulatory requirements specific to your industry.
