Technology in Medical Cleaning: UV, Fogging, and Beyond

The world of medical cleaning is evolving rapidly.

From UV disinfection to fogging systems, technology is transforming how clinics and hospitals across North Shore Sydney maintain safety and hygiene.

Here’s how innovation is shaping the future of infection control in healthcare cleaning.

1. UV Light Disinfection

UV-C light destroys bacteria and viruses at the DNA level — no chemicals required.

It’s used to disinfect:

• Patient rooms

• Surgical theatres

• Diagnostic equipment

💡 Example: A Crows Nest dental clinic uses UV light devices nightly, achieving 99.9% surface sterilisation in under 15 minutes.

2. Electrostatic Spraying & Fogging

Electrostatic fogging disperses disinfectant particles that cling evenly to surfaces — even in hard-to-reach areas.

This method is ideal for:

• Post-infection cleans

• After-hours disinfection

• Rapid sanitisation between patient sessions

3. Smart Monitoring Systems

Digital tools track cleaning frequency, surface hygiene levels, and product usage to ensure accountability.

Some clinics in Lane Cove now use barcode-based logging systems to verify cleaning compliance.

4. Eco-Tech Innovations

Modern cleaning tech uses biodegradable disinfectants and water-based cleaning systems that protect both people and the environment.
