Specialist Contagion Cleaning & Sanitising

We also offer specialised cleaning and sanitising to help reduce the spread of contagions. This is important for all workplaces, and we should all be doing everything we can to help stop infections.

Expert Sanitising and Decontamination Services

Decontamination

Decontamination is the process of removing or neutralising contaminants or infectious bacteria, viruses or fungi that pose a risk to people, animals, and the environment. It plays a critical role in public health, industrial safety, and environmental protection by reducing or eliminating harmful substances from affected surfaces, materials, or spaces. Decontamination is essential in many fields, including healthcare, chemical industries, waste management, and emergency response, particularly in dealing with hazardous materials, infectious agents, or toxic chemicals.

At Dunbar Services, our Decontamination & Sanitisation Services are designed to provide thorough and effective cleaning, disinfection, and sterilisation to ensure safe and contaminant-free environments for our clients.

Methods of Decontamination

  • CleaningOur team begins with an essential and comprehensive cleaning step, physically removing contaminants from surfaces and high-touch areas. This process lays the foundation for effective decontamination, ensuring that any visible dirt or organic material is eliminated, making subsequent treatments even more effective.
  • DisinfectionFollowing cleaning, we apply professional-grade chemical disinfectants that kill or inactivate pathogens on surfaces and equipment. Our disinfection services are tailored to maintain high standards of hygiene and are ideal for environments where a sterile or sanitised setting is critical, such as healthcare facilities, food preparation areas, and offices.
  • Sanitisation – For situations that demand the complete eradication of all forms of life and biological agents, we provide advanced sterilisation options. Our techniques include thermal fogging and mist fogging sterilisation techniques. This is perfect for spaces requiring absolute sterility, giving our clients peace of mind that their environment is as safe and secure as possible.

Cleaning, Disinfection & Sanitisation Techniques

Thermal Fogging

Thermal fogging produces a fine mist of sanitising agents that effectively disperses micro-droplets throughout an area, reaching and settling on all surfaces to eliminate microbial contamination. During this process, the air conditioning system is kept operational, allowing the decontaminant to circulate through the return air, pass through the plant, and then redistribute via the supply air outlets. This approach provides one of the most thorough and rapid methods for sanitising and decontaminating spaces, whether it’s a small living area or a large stadium, ensuring comprehensive coverage and peace of mind.

Mist Fogging

Mist fogging disperses an ultra-fine mist of antimicrobial solution into occupied spaces, where it settles on exposed surfaces to eliminate microbial contamination. While it may not cover large areas as quickly as thermal fogging, mist fogging is highly effective for general occupied spaces and serves as an excellent supplemental method for ongoing sanitisation or as a follow-up to thermal fogging.

Split System Air Conditioning

Split system air conditioners can become breeding grounds for microbes. To address this, Dunbar Services thoroughly cleans the air conditioner filter, applies a microbial decontaminant concentrate to the coil, and installs a 15ml SanAir gel, which helps control microbial growth and maintain cleaner air for up to five weeks. With a simple gel replacement every five weeks, microbial levels stay low, reducing the risk of viral infections and enhancing air quality.

Air Handling Unit (AHU) & Duct Air Conditioning

HVAC systems are like the lungs of any occupied environment, constantly circulating air and susceptible to microbial contamination. When bacterial counts are high within these systems, they can release contaminants into the air, potentially impacting respiratory health. Viruses like COVID-19 may exploit bacteria within HVAC systems to transition from an inactive state to an infectious form, feeding on mold and riding on dust particles as they travel through the air. By keeping HVAC systems properly decontaminated, we help maintain healthier air circulation, reducing microbial presence and supporting safer indoor environments.

What to do after Decontamination & Sanitisation

Long-Lasting Protection

After decontamination, Dunbar Services offers comprehensive solutions to maintain a high level of hygiene and protection, that help to safeguard your environment long-term. Our ongoing protection services include scheduled follow-up treatments, application of antimicrobial coatings, and guidance on best practices to minimise contamination risks.

We use San-Air, an Australian-made, natural microbial inhibitor that reduces bacteria in the air. Safe for people and pets, San-Air helps maintain a clean environment by continuously neutralising contaminants in the air and on surfaces. This added layer of defence actively inhibits the growth of harmful pathogens between cleanings.

We work closely with clients to implement tailored protocols and hygiene routines that reinforce cleanliness, ensuring a consistently safe and sanitary environment. Through these preventative measures, we empower our clients to keep their spaces safer for everyone, well beyond the initial decontamination.
