Delivered by the company's emergency response teams, the service is said to eradicate the health and safety risks associated with confirmed or suspected cases of Covid-19 in buildings or on sites.
Applications for this service are wide ranging and include corporate offices, control rooms, laboratories, food retailers, warehousing and distribution, as well as public spaces, transport and commercial vehicles.
The service, which Veolia says is compliant with the latest UK Public Health Guidelines on infection control, has been developed from expertise in exposure to hazardous environments, and will also make use of Defra approved biocides and virocides where people come into contact with potentially contaminated surfaces.
The service also guarantees the safe disposal of any potentially Covid-19 contaminated waste streams through specialised Environment Agency approved clinical waste treatment facilities.
Richard Kirkman, Veolia’s head of Covid-19 response and chief technology and innovation officer, says: "With the pandemic posing a significant risk to health, Veolia is supporting the national effort to defeat this virus. Our new services are based on our years of expertise dealing with hazardous environments, and can now give the reassurance and peace of mind that the virus will be eradicated. This in turn will help businesses and other organisations ensure the safety of their employees and customers, as they seek to return to normal business operations."
