TL;DR
Safe From Spread, a franchise concept, adds a patented Biostatic Antimicrobial Protectant to its services to protect businesses from diseases and viruses. The brand has expanded to eleven states and has three corporate locations and 50 franchisee-owned territories.
The protectant creates an invisible shield which helps inhibit the growth of mold, mildew, odor and stain-causing bacteria, fungus and algae on both porous and nonporous surfaces for up to 90 days.
“Safe From Spread has played a crucial role in protecting thousands of businesses across the United States from the spread of viruses and diseases like Covid-19,” stated Ryan Combe, CEO and co-founder of Safe From Spread. “This new product will greatly aid us in our mission to protect employees, and customers in businesses of all kinds. It will help us take a more proactive approach to protecting surfaces for a prolonged period of time, rather than the traditional disinfecting approach, which requires re-disinfecting on a regular basis.”
Safe From Spread now has a three step approach to safety. Step one, Safe From Spread will disinfect all surfaces, killing 99.9% of viruses (including Covid-19) and bacteria.
Step two, after the disinfectant is completely dry, Safe From Spread will apply the protectant. The protectant creates an inhospitable environment for bacteria, microbes, algae and fungus for up to 90 days. Step three, Safe From Spread provides a Certificate of Sanitization and a Certificate Antimicrobial Biostatic Surface Protectant Application, showcasing that this business has been disinfected and protected by Safe From Spread.
“Especially with Covid-19 cases reaching record-breaking numbers, there has never been a more important time for business owners to take a more proactive role in their efforts to protect their employees and customers,” added Combe. “We are excited to offer this new service to our customers, and look forward to continuing to protect businesses across the United States from dangerous bacteria and viruses like Covid-19.”
This new product comes at an important time for the rapidly-growing franchise concept. The brand - founded in April - has already expanded its national footprint to include eleven states, though it is capable of servicing businesses anywhere in the United States. The brand currently has three corporate locations, and an additional 50 franchisee-owned territories.
