How Can New Cleaning Technology Keep Hospitals Clean?

Maintaining a clean, safe, and compliant hospital environment requires close attention to detail. Cleanliness is essential to prevent the spread of infection and reduce the risk of cross-contamination. 

Contract cleaning services help maintain a consistent hygiene routine. They remove the need to manage an in-house team, easing administrative burdens. Professional cleaners also ensure strict healthcare hygiene standards are met. This includes sanitising everything from high-touch areas to hidden germ hotspots. 

At Samsic, our expert medical cleaning teams bring deep experience in healthcare-specific disinfection and sanitisation. We use the latest innovations to enhance your cleaning routine. 

In this article, we explore the advanced cleaning technologies we use to keep hospitals clean. You’ll also see how our contract services can support your medical site. 

The Technologies Transforming Hospital Cleaning 

We integrate advanced cleaning technology into our contract cleaning services for medical facilities, maximising the efficiency of regular healthcare cleaning and ensuring thorough sanitisation. We target hard-to-reach areas and high-risk zones to support full compliance with healthcare regulations. 

Here are the key technologies we use to maintain hospital hygiene. 

Fogging 

Fogging is an eco-friendly disinfection method. It applies a fine, low-pressure mist to surfaces, avoiding harsh chemicals that can irritate airways or affect air quality. 

When used in healthcare settings alongside our eco-friendly Toucan Eco Active cleaning solution, fogging is a highly effective disinfection technique that kills up to 99.9% of microorganisms, bacteria, and viruses – without the need for an operative to be present.  

Antimicrobial Nordic Chem coating 

Our Nordic Chem antimicrobial coating provides long-lasting surface protection that actively supports daily hospital hygiene.  

Applied with a spray and cloth, Nordic Chem forms a non-stick, invisible barrier. This barrier prevents bacteria and contaminants from building up, making surfaces easier to clean and safer for both patients and staff. It’s especially effective on high-touch surfaces and in clinical zones. Nordic Chem helps reinforce routine hygiene protocols and reduces infection risk. 

AI Sensor Technology 

Our AI-powered sensors offer data-driven insights to improve cleaning efficiency. These devices monitor high-traffic areas and detect usage patterns in real time. 

They guide cleaning teams to where they’re needed most, helping staff respond quickly to unexpected mess or spills. This smart approach supports consistent hygiene and efficient use of resources across your facility, enhancing long-term ROI. 

Toucan Eco Active  

Sustainability is a key part of our cleaning approach. Toucan Eco Active offers a powerful, non-toxic alternative to traditional disinfectants – ideal for healthcare environments. 

This system produces a safe, ionised cleaning solution on-site using only water, salt, and electricity. The result is a pH-neutral, hypoallergenic disinfectant that kills up to 99.999% of germs without leaving harmful residues or affecting air quality. 

As Toucan Eco Active is made on demand by the cleaning operatives themselves, with little training required by your teams, the solution has virtually no footprint and is low-cost. Businesses that use Toucan can save up to 80% of their wider cleaning costs, as alternative harsh cleaning agents are no longer required.  

By using Toucan Eco Active, we help hospitals maintain high hygiene standards while protecting staff, patients, and the planet. 

INEOS Hand Sanitiser 

Hand hygiene is one of the most visible and vital aspects of healthcare hygiene. Our integrated INEOS hospital-grade sanitising system however, ensures hygiene is front and centre for your hospital’s staff, patients, and visitors. 

The INEOS system uses 75% alcohol, proven to instantly kill up to 99.99% of viruses and bacteria. We install these units at key touchpoints, including entrances, waiting rooms, and clinical zones, to promote good hygiene practices across your site.  

Samseal Floor Coating 

Floors can be a hidden health risk in hospital hygiene and a major source of expense. Our Samseal floor coating helps with both – forming a safe, slip-resistant surface that exceeds British Standards.  

Samseal can be applied to a wide range of surfaces, including vinyl, lino, and rubber, and is up to 17 times more abrasion-resistant than standard vinyl. It refreshes and extends the life of existing flooring, reducing maintenance costs significantly with savings of up to 100% on stripping, sealing, and polishing. 

After all, cleaner, safer floors help prevent slips and preserve your facility’s reputation for cleanliness and care.
