Visible Surfaces Look Clean. Pathogens Are Invisible | And Standard Cleaning Does Not Eliminate Them
Visible Surfaces Look Clean. Pathogens Are Invisible | And Standard Cleaning Does Not Eliminate Them
A clean property and a microbiologically safe property are not the same thing. Mustafa Group’s Antiviral Sanitisation Services deliver the second standard — using the same certified technology and chemical efficacy benchmarks applied in clinical, pharmaceutical, and food-safety environments.
✅ BS EN 1276 certified virucidal solutions — 99.999% germ kill rate
✅ ULV dry fogging — full spatial coverage including inaccessible areas
✅ All surfaces, soft furnishings, vehicles, and air volume treated
✅ 100% non-toxic, child-safe, pet-safe — no rinse required
✅ Service certificate issued — satisfies compliance and insurance requirements
✅ Same-day and emergency response available 7 days a week
Viruses survive on surfaces for up to 72 hours. Bacteria colonise high-touch areas within minutes of cleaning. Mustafa Group’s Antiviral Sanitisation Services eliminate 99.999% of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and pathogens from every surface in your property — using hospital-grade, certified virucidal technology.
The Critical Difference Between Cleaning, Disinfecting, and Antiviral Sanitisation
Most surfaces in a home or workplace that look clean are not microbiologically safe. Ordinary cleaning — wiping, mopping, and spraying with standard household products — removes visible dirt and reduces the number of surface microorganisms, but it does not eliminate them. This is not a minor distinction. The pathogens that cause the most significant illness transmission — including influenza, norovirus, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), SARS-CoV-2, and a range of antibiotic-resistant bacteria — survive on hard surfaces for between several hours and several days after ordinary cleaning.
Standard disinfectants available in supermarkets vary enormously in their actual pathogen kill rate and contact time requirements — and are rarely used correctly in domestic settings (insufficient dwell time, inadequate concentration, and incorrect application method all dramatically reduce effectiveness). They also reach only the surfaces they are directly applied to — they do not address the air volume, porous surfaces, or hard-to-reach areas where contamination accumulates.
Our Antiviral Sanitisation Services use BS EN 1276-certified virucidal solutions — the European standard for chemical disinfectants that requires a proven 99.999% germ kill rate at the correct concentration within a five-minute contact time. This certification standard is used as the benchmark for hospital infection control, food production environments, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Every product we apply meets or exceeds this standard.
Our technicians deploy these solutions using a combination of surface application for high-contact areas and ULV (Ultra-Low Volume) fogging technology for spatial coverage — dispersing micro-fine particles throughout the full air volume and onto all surfaces including inaccessible areas, ceiling fixtures, seams, gaps, and soft furnishings that manual application cannot reach.
Book professional antiviral sanitisation when:
- A confirmed illness or infection has occurred within the property
- You need to decontaminate a property after a notifiable disease case
- You are an employer with a duty of care obligation following staff illness
- A commercial premises requires documented sanitisation for regulatory or compliance purposes
- You want to sanitise a new home, rental property, or Airbnb before occupation
- You are in a high-risk sector — healthcare adjacent, education, food service, or elderly care
- You need a whole-property sanitisation before a vulnerable person returns home after hospital treatment
- You want to combine antiviral sanitisation with a deep clean as a single comprehensive service
The European BS EN 1276 standard for bactericidal activity of chemical disinfectants requires 99.999% kill rate — written as a 5-log reduction in microbial load. This is the standard used in hospital infection control and food safety environments, and it is the standard our certified virucidal solutions meet on every application.
Every Surface, Every Space — What Our Sanitisation Service Covers
Our Infection Control Cleaning service is comprehensive — every surface type, every room, and the full air volume of the treated space. Below is the complete scope of what our certified technicians treat on every visit.
| Surface / Area Type | Method Applied | Why This Area Is Priority |
|---|---|---|
| High-Touch Contact Surfaces — Highest Transmission Risk | ||
| Door handles — all internal and external | Manual + Fog | Touched by every person entering or leaving every room — highest surface contamination load in any property |
| Light switches and electrical controls | Manual + Fog | Activated multiple times daily — rarely cleaned in routine domestic cleaning |
| Kitchen worktops and food preparation surfaces | Manual Application | Direct food contact risk — BS EN 1276 certified solution safe for food contact surfaces after application |
| Bathroom fixtures — toilet, sink, taps, handles | Manual + Fog | Highest faecal-oral pathogen transfer risk — requires individual manual treatment as well as full-space fogging |
| Remote controls, keyboards, mice, phones | Manual Application | Frequently touched shared items with high bacterial contamination load — manually treated with appropriate non-damaging solution |
| Stair handrails, bannister rails | Manual + Fog | Continuously touched surface used by all occupants and visitors — often overlooked in standard cleaning |
| ULV Fogging — Spatial and Hard-to-Reach Coverage | ||
| Full air volume — entire treated space | ULV Fogging | Virucidal fog dispersed throughout the air volume — reaches ceiling level, corners, behind furniture, and all areas manual application cannot access |
| Ceiling surfaces and light fittings | ULV Fogging | Fine droplets settle onto all upward-facing surfaces — standard cleaning never reaches ceiling height |
| Behind and underneath furniture | ULV Fogging | Areas where pathogen-laden dust and droplets settle — fog penetrates without moving furniture |
| Soft furnishings — sofas, chairs, curtains | ULV Fogging | Porous surfaces retain airborne droplets — fogging sanitises without wetting or damaging fabrics |
| Ventilation grilles and air duct openings | ULV Fogging | HVAC and ventilation surfaces distribute contamination through air movement — treated with virucidal fog during service |
| Vehicle Interior Sanitisation | ||
| All interior hard surfaces — dashboard, controls | Manual + Fog | Vehicle interiors are enclosed, frequently occupied spaces with very high touch-surface density |
| Seats, headrests, and seatbelts | ULV Fogging | Fabric and vinyl seat surfaces treated — respiratory droplets settle on upholstery directly in occupant breathing zone |
| Steering wheel, gear lever, door handles | Manual Application | Highest-touch surfaces in any vehicle — individually treated with virucidal solution |
| Interior door handles and window controls | Manual Application | Touched by every occupant — manual treatment ensures complete surface coverage |

Areas We Cover for Regular Home Cleaning
We provide services across London, the Home Counties, and major UK cities.
The BS EN 1276 certified virucidal solution we use is non-toxic, non-hazardous, and requires no rinsing on any surface after application. For surfaces treated by manual spray and wipe, the area is safe to use immediately after treatment. For spaces treated with ULV fogging, we recommend a 30-minute vacancy period while the fog settles and disperses — after which the space is completely safe for children, pets, and allergy sufferers with no residue concerns.
No — the ULV fogging process produces an ultra-fine dry mist with a very low moisture content, specifically designed to avoid any wetting or residue on surfaces. Electronics, soft furnishings, fabrics, artwork, and all standard interior materials are unaffected. Our technicians assess the space before fogging and can exclude any specific areas or items where you have concerns.
Yes — and combining both services in the same visit is one of our most effective offerings. The correct sequence is always deep cleaning first, then sanitisation. Physical deep cleaning removes the organic material (dust, grease, and soiling) that can inhibit the effectiveness of virucidal chemicals — a disinfectant applied to a dirty surface works significantly less effectively than one applied to a clean surface. Sanitisation then treats the thoroughly cleaned surfaces to the full BS EN 1276 standard.
Yes — we issue a full service certificate after every Infection Control Cleaning and sanitisation visit. This document records the date, property address, treatment method, products used (with their BS EN 1276 certification reference), and the technician details. This certificate satisfies employer duty of care documentation requirements, insurance policy conditions, and regulatory compliance records for commercial premises. Additional documentation can be provided on request for specific regulatory needs.
