Frequently Asked Questions
Maintaining hygienic surfaces is essential across hospitality, healthcare, education, offices and commercial facilities. At IG Group, we supply commercial disinfectant sprays, concentrates, wipes and multipurpose cleaners for kitchens, washrooms, workspaces and high-traffic areas.
How do disinfectants work?
Disinfectants contain active ingredients that affect microorganisms such as bacteria, yeasts or certain viruses. Different products work in different ways, so users should always check the product label and technical information.
Does disinfectant kill bacteria?
Many disinfectants are formulated and tested to work against specified bacteria. Look for products tested to recognised bactericidal standards and follow the stated dilution and contact time.
Do disinfectants kill viruses?
Some disinfectants are tested against specific viruses or recognised virucidal standards. Not every disinfectant is effective against every virus, so always check the product label, technical data and test claims.
Can disinfectant be used in commercial kitchens?
Yes, but only use products approved for the intended kitchen application. Food-contact surfaces may need rinsing with clean water after disinfection unless the product instructions state otherwise.
What do EN disinfectant standards mean?
EN standards indicate that the product has been tested under defined conditions against particular groups of microorganisms. Different standards cover different applications and organisms, so check which claims are relevant to your premises.
What is concentrated disinfectant?
Concentrated disinfectant must usually be diluted before use. It can offer good cost control for high-volume commercial cleaning, but accurate dosing is essential for safety and effective performance.
