Should the need for disinfection arise, this can be done by washing at minimum 74˚C or by wiping with ethanol. NOTE! - this applies to Comfort+ and polyester and Trevira CS textiles only.

The following is a quote from the report by the Danish SSI, Statens Serum Institut, “Advice and guidelines on disinfection in the health sector":

“In Denmark, ethanol at a concentration of between 70% and 85% (by volume) is recommended because it ignites more easily at higher concentrations.

Ethanol vapours are less irritating to the eyes and mucous membranes and are not absorbed through the skin.

Ethanol kills bacteria (e.g. tubercle bacilli), fungi and viruses (e.g. HIV, hepatitis B and C), but it has no effect on spores.

Ethanol is easily inactivated by organic matter. Surfaces must therefore be cleaned prior to disinfection with ethanol.”

For safety reasons we recommend that instructions for use are made for the specific area of use.
