Groomers
Today your sanitization process:
-
Caps daily appointment capacity and slows client turnover
-
Demands added labour time and investment in tools to manage cleaning cycles
-
Directly affects your reputation, client trust, and business risk
Don’t risk a brush-in with pathogens in your business
Groomers operate on tight schedules and ensuring a high throughput of animals is critical for business success, but carries significant risk for cross-infection of pathogens that can impact animal and human health, so effective sanitization is key.
​
Of the almost 5,000 groomers across Canada the majority are small independent businesses for whom finances can be challenging. Sanitization accounts for up to 10% of operating expenses for groomers and can slow the operation reducing efficiencies, but cutting corners on hygiene can risk your health, your clients’ health, and your reputation.
​
Using detergents can require significant staff time, prepping liquids from concentrate, allowing time to activate, and then often a clean-up or product removal before your equipment is back in use. Using UV provides a relatively fast cleaning cycle time, but requires more maintenance, and potential time lost to getting bulbs replaced. Also, UVC deals with the pathogen threat, but doesn’t address odours which may then incur additional cleaning cycles to address. You just want to be able to get things clean, keep your grooming salon smelling good, and get back to work!
