The recent Meningitis outbreak has raised concerns around how to properly treat areas to keep us safe and prevent the spread. Optimal health and safety is vital to ensure outbreaks like the current situation are prevented and kept at a minimal. We’re here to support you in reducing the spread. What is Meningitis? Meningitis is an infection of the protective membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. It can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or, more rarely, fungi. Viral meningitis often linked to enteroviruses is the most common form and can spread through close contact and contaminated surfaces. Symptoms to Look Out For Recognising the early signs of meningitis is crucial. Common symptoms include: A high temperature (fever) Severe headache Sensitivity to light Neck stiffness Nausea or vomiting Drowsiness or difficulty concentrating In some cases, particularly with bacterial meningitis, symptoms can escalate quickly, so it’s important to seek medical advice if you’re concerned. How Meningitis Spreads Meningitis-causing viruses and bacteria can spread through respiratory droplets, close personal contact, and by touching contaminated surfaces. This makes effective hygiene practices essential in shared environments such as workplaces, schools, and public spaces. How we can help? We have selected the best products to keep you protected against the outbreak. These products have been tested to show full virucidal efficacy against both enveloped and non-enveloped viruses. This includes enteroviruses which are known as one of the most common cause of viral meningitis. Steritec Perfumed Virucidal Cleaner Dose at 6% for full virucidal efficacy. Steritec Virucidal Cleaner Dose at 6% for full virucidal efficacy. Sanitizing Tablets Dose 4 tablets per 1L of water for full virucidal efficacy. High Power Sanitising Tablets Dose 1 tablet per 1L of water for full virucidal efficacy. Don't neglect your hand care! Good hand hygiene is essential, especially when viruses are circulating. Using an effective antibacterial hand wash and regularly washing your hands, particularly after being in shared spaces helps reduce the risk of spreading germs. We have a range of antibacterial hand washes and hand sanitisers to keep you protected. We’re here to support you. If you have any concerns about the recent outbreak or would like advice on our products, our expert Technical team is on hand to help: technical.enquiries@cleenol.co.uk

As temperatures drop and heating is used more frequently, indoor environments can become the perfect breeding ground for mould. Condensation, poor ventilation, and moisture all contribute to its growth. While mould is unsightly, it can also pose health risks if left untreated particularly for those with existing respiratory conditions. The good news is that mould doesn’t have to take over your space. With the right approach, it can be treated safely and effectively. Treating small areas of mould For minor patches of mould, a simple cleaning solution may be sufficient. Start by wiping or vacuuming the affected area to remove loose debris. Mix warm water with a small amount of washing-up liquid , then gently scrub the area. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow the surface to dry. This process may need to be repeated to achieve the best results. Use an effective mould remover cleaner For greater peace of mind, especially where mould is more established, using a dedicated mould and mildew remover is recommended. These products are specifically formulated to sanitise surfaces and kill mould, bacteria, yeast, and fungi at the source, helping to prevent regrowth. They’re quick and easy to use, but it’s important to always follow the instructions on the product label for safe and effective results. Tackling larger, stubborn areas If mould is widespread, persistent, or difficult to access, professional intervention may be necessary. Specialist services can safely remove mould and address underlying causes such as excess moisture or poor ventilation, reducing the risk of it returning. Taking early action is key. Whether you’re dealing with a small patch or a larger problem, choosing the right treatment helps protect both your space and the people using it. If you'd like advice on particular cleaning products and finding the right product to treat the problem, our expert Technical team are available to support: technical.enquiries@cleenol.co.uk

We’ve all done it: walked into a washroom, taken one sniff, and immediately wanted to head straight back out. Why does the men’s restroom always seem ten times worse? Bad odours in washrooms aren’t just unpleasant; they leave a lasting impression on customers, staff, and visitors. A clean, fresh-smelling toilet can genuinely elevate someone’s experience of your business (yes, even the loo can impact customer satisfaction!). Understanding the Problem Here’s the thing: most of the time, the fix for that dreaded “urinal stink” isn't as easy as spraying some heavily perfumed air freshener or using up a bottle of toilet cleaner. The problem starts from the beginning. Why Don't Traditional Cleaning Products Do the Job? In homes, where toilets are used far less frequently, regular cleaning products usually do the job. However, in high-traffic environments, these products often only hide the issue rather than resolve it. Persistent urinal odours typically stem from a build-up of uric scale, bacteria, and crystallisation deep within pipework and drainage systems. Traditional urinal blocks rely on strong fragrances to cover up smells. While the area may seem fresh at first, the real problem remains—and continues to grow over time. The Solution: Enzyme-Based Products This is why you need to use more effective products, like enzymes, to tackle the real issue from within. Our edencleen Enzyme Urinal Blocks use naturally occurring 'good bacteria' to address the root cause of the problem rather than just cover up the smells. They work behind the scenes to: Break down blockages and uric scale Convert crystallisation into harmless carbon dioxide and water Keep your pipes free-flowing and healthy Reduce long-term odour build-up Best Practices for Maintenance For best results, each urinal should always have a block in place. Over time, as the enzymes get to work, the block will naturally break down. This proactive approach ensures that your washrooms remain fresh and inviting. The Importance of Cleanliness in Professional Spaces Maintaining cleanliness in professional spaces is crucial. It reflects your commitment to hygiene and customer satisfaction. A clean washroom can significantly enhance the overall experience of your visitors. Conclusion In conclusion, tackling washroom odours requires more than just a quick fix. By using enzyme-based products like our edencleen Enzyme Urinal Blocks, you can effectively eliminate the root causes of unpleasant smells. This not only improves the hygiene of your facilities but also leaves a positive impression on everyone who visits your business. By prioritising cleanliness and hygiene, you contribute to a cleaner, safer world for your customers and communities. Remember, a fresh washroom is just as important as a clean workspace.

We've all been there. You're running late for work, only to be greeted by a thick layer of ice on your car windscreen. Panic suddenly hits you and you're thinking 'how on earth am I going to shift this AND make it on time for my meeting?'. You've heard it a thousand times before, never put boiling water on your car windscreen but you think to yourself 'it can't be that bad, why don't I just risk it this once'. Reality, washes over and you realise risking cracking your screen will cause a lot more problems than simply being a bit later for work. So now you’re on Plan B: frantically searching for your trusty ice scraper. Only it’s nowhere to be found. You’re kicking yourself for ignoring that great deal on scrapers at your local supermarket last week. Desperate, you grab your debit card—the next best thing, right? Fast forward 15 minutes, and you’ve finally cleared the ice…sort of. Your fingers are frozen, your debit card is chipped, and you’ve added a few new scratches to your windscreen. Not exactly the best start to your morning. Sound familiar? According to Allianz insurance 'So far in 2024, the insurer spent an average of £327 per windscreen claim, which has risen from £308 in 2022, a difference of £19.' People are still choosing to risk damaging their vehicles for a 'quick solution' that ironically will cost you more time and money! The truth is de-icing your car doesn't have to be timely, you just need a reliable and good quality de-icer. Cleenol's De-Icer shows results in just 30 seconds and wont add any extra scratches to your windscreen! Instead of picking up your kettle try Cleenol's de-icer and take control in the colder mornings - Autocleen | Autocleen De-Icer. It's even effective in temperatures as low as -10°c. For the best results, spray the de-icer and wipe with windscreen wipers / rubber squeegee. Remember, trying to cut corners and save time can often end up costing you much more in the long run! The real hack is staying prepared.

Amanda set out a goal to lose 75lbs in just 75 weeks and although their may have been temptations along the way, she has not let them get in the way of achieving her target! Her determination has been incredible, well done. There is still time to show your support by heading donating here: Lose 75lbs in 75 Weeks Challenge – Project 75 ( mycleenol.com ) Joe challenged himself to run 750km in a year.
