The Safer Disinfectant Network (SDN) is a collaboration with infection prevention experts, leading academics, and manufacturers.\u00a0 These professionals are committed to ensuring public safety by encouraging high standards of effectiveness within disinfectant products, based on rigorous testing, independent clinical evidence, and clarity on claims of product efficacy.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As members of the SDN, we are primarily focussed on:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Ensuring workplace guidance continues to stress the importance of hand hygiene and surface cleaning\/disinfection.<\/li>\n
  2. Ensuring hand hygiene and surface disinfection remains prominent in government public health guidance.<\/li>\n
  3. Ensuring hand hygiene and surface disinfection remains at the forefront of public consciousness.<\/li>\n
  4. Securing a commitment from the Government to introduce and enforce high industry standards – specifically the requirement that products are subject to appropriate testing in accredited laboratories and only make efficacy claims that can be substantiated.<\/li>\n
  5. Raising awareness amongst end-users the potential for products to make false or misleading efficacy claims, and to inform end-users as to what they should look for as reassurance of product efficacy.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
