Built on the success of its Clean Standard: K-12, the new ISSA Clean Standard applies to general institutional and commercial facilities, such as office buildings, retail stores, hotels and similar facilities.
The new standard derives from the former ISSA Clean Standard: K-12, issued in October 2013, which provides a protocol for assessing cleaning effectiveness in schools. The ISSA Clean Standard: K-12 is based on extensive independent scientific research, conducted by the Cleaning Industry Research Institute’s (CIRI) Science Advisory Panel, which includes thousands of ATP measurements on high-touch points taken in numerous schools representing multiple geographic and climatic variations
The ISSA Clean Standard provides simplified “ranges of clean” for three ATP meters that, based on extensive field research, prove to deliver an objective, quantitative component to determine whether a facility is truly clean.
“The ISSA Clean Standard establishes a framework to help facilities assess the effectiveness of their cleaning processes using a blend of ATP testing and traditional inspection methods,” explains ISSA Director of Legislative and Environmental Services Bill Balek. “More importantly, the ISSA Clean Standard focuses on how to use the measurement and inspection results to improve the cleaning process, which contributes to the overall quality of the indoor environment and health of the occupants.”
