New Year. New Solutions.
While the calendar may flipped to 2021, in all reality, little has changed. The COVID-19 virus still runs rampant in this country with a new, more contagious strain becoming known. Businesses are still fighting for their lives and trying to stay open.
This is where Eco-Technology can help your business.
Allow us to present a new solution in the area of sanitation and elimination of cross-contamination: our wastebasket, the Tellurian. It’s made of 100% reclaimed, recycled paper and after use is biodegradable and recyclable. It can help stop the spread of any germs or viruses in your workplace, hospital, office or hotel.
CDC guidance on COVID-19 states that the virus can live on metal, plastic and other hard surfaces from anywhere between 48-120 hours. However, on OUR corrugated material, it barely lasts 12 hours. According to newly released OSHA guidance on seasonal flu and COVID-19, they are recommending that businesses provide “single-use waste receptacles for employees to help stop the spread of any virus”. A single-use wastebasket like the Tellurian will help stop any cross-contamination unlike the handling and cleaning of a traditional plastic wastebasket. OSHA reiterates in its guidance not to use any aerosol cleaning sprays since they can lift any contaminant off of a hard surface and spread it through the air. With the Tellurian, after use, you simply place it in your recycler or garbage. This is cheaper than cleaning a traditional plastic wastebasket and safer when you factor in the many contamination risk factors in regards to workplace cleaning.
So why worry about waste safety when you can purchase a single-use wastebasket product? No cleaning, no spread of harsh chemicals, no cross-contamination of viruses, lower costs, less risk to cleaning personnel and it saves you money — these are just some of the benefits! This is the perfect time to reach out to us. Workplaces will be reopening, so be ready with a waste solution in hand.
