Launch of specialist COVID-19 sanitising service
Filta Group Holdings PLC (AIM: FLTA), a provider of fryer management and other services to commercial kitchens, is pleased to announce the UK launch of FiltaShield, a new sanitising service to help businesses combat and prevent the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19).
Working closely with industry experts and specialist chemical suppliers, Filta is extending its range of environmental services and deploying an approved, laboratory-tested Coronavirus sanitising solution, which is effective against all enveloped viruses, killing them within minutes. The anti-viral solution, which has been developed for use in restaurants, bars, shops, offices as well as healthcare facilities, is applied to a surface by spraying or fogging, leaving behind a mono-molecular layer that bonds to the surface and protects surfaces for up to 30 days.
In addition, as part of its service to tackle Coronavirus and help businesses and public bodies adapt to new safety requirements, Filta has teamed up with a technology supplier to supply and manage temperature screening devices for its customers, which can screen up to 30 people per second for a fever. The devices, which are installed at the entrances of buildings, provide operators with a further preventive measure against the spread of Coronavirus.
CEO of Filta Group, Jason Sayers said: "As companies look to open up again after the current lockdown, the safety of employees, visitors and clients will be a key focus.
"We are proud to have developed this highly effective service in such a short period, and are now helping businesses and organisations make the necessary preparations to get back up and running as quickly as possible.
"Filta has always sought to adapt to the needs of its customers, and has already seen a growing number of orders from existing clients, as well as interest from businesses outside of our traditional customer base of restaurants and hospitality. Whilst FiltaShield is currently only available in the UK, we will look to roll out this service in the U.S. and Europe in due course."
