Wherever you are working if there was ever a time to take your cleaning to the next level, it's now.

While keeping your workstation clean has always been important for health and preventing the spread of illness, this has taken on an extra level of significance during the Covid-19 pandemic.

With respiratory viruses surviving on surfaces for anything from several hours to a few days, the thorough cleaning of surfaces and hands is essential for reducing the risk of contracting Covid-19 through touch.

Please see below some frequently asked questions on surface cleaning and with a view to helping you create a more healthier workspace.

Technology typically reaches its best-by date within four years causing devices to work slower, systems to take longer to boot up and applications to crash more often.

Businesses that don’t provide employees with the right equipment and up-to-date tech are likely to be damaging staff morale and reducing productivity.

With many employees now working from home for the foreseeable future, it is more vital than ever that employers invest in the right tools and technology which support collaboration, communication and therefore improve productivity.

Shaping the future of printing with Heat-Free Technology

Looking at them from the outside, it seems there are no differences between laser and inkjet printers from Epson, however when we look inside, they couldn’t be more different.

Epson inkjet printers use Heat-Free technology, which compared to laser and thermal inkjet technology deliver advanced customer benefits. Laser printing is a complex process which involves several stages, plus a high level of heat is required to warm up the toner and ultimately fuse it to the paper.

Face masks are now a part of everyday life.

It has been scientifically proven that face masks can help prevent the spread of viruses such as Covid-19. There are now strict measures in place to contain the spread of the virus, which includes the use of a face mask when outside of your home including in workplaces and on public transport.  

In schools, social distancing measures need to be communicated easily and effectively. 

Laminated signs located in corridors, halls and classrooms will help pupils follow hygiene and safety procedures and alleviate any worries. Any laminated documents can also be easily wiped clean and disinfected when required.

From pupil displays to social distance signage, laminating in schools is more important than ever.

Laminating has long been a favourite finish in the classroom and around the school. Not only does it make pupils’ work, learning displays and decorations shine, it also protects them from the everyday knocks, clumsy spills and accidental damage that can plague a busy school environment.
