Maid Brigade may be best known as the first maid service in the country to transition to sustainable, green cleaning products. But during a time when “disinfectant” has become both a buzzword and a coveted household item, this company is taking extra measures to help protect its customers against COVID-19.
Since April, Maid Brigade has donated more than 3,500 gallons of its hospital-grade sanitizing solution to Mayor Betsy Price’s office, police and fire departments, and homeless shelters. And now, the company is offering its residential and commercial customers this disinfectant for free.
The product, which is electrolyzed water, uses the Orbio OS3 system to turn water, salt, and electricity into hypochlorous acid. With the PUREmist spray system, an electrostatic sprayer, Maid Brigade employees can disperse the sanitizing formula across all materials and surfaces.
The hypochlorous acid is nontoxic and safe for the environment, pets, and children, and it can be sprayed on areas used for food preparation or eating. Though there are still many unanswered questions about the coronavirus, the CDC recommends hypochlorous acid as a protection against it; removing the food sources of viruses inhibits them from living.
Customers have the option to request an additional service after the sanitizing solution has been applied. For an extra fee, the Maid Brigade team can add an antimicrobial barrier, which stops microbes from growing for up to 90 days.
These offerings are important to the franchise owner, Keith Clem.
“If we can do something to help keep our community safe and help local businesses get back to normal, we’re there to support that cause,” Clem says in a press release.
Clem, a TCU graduate, has owned the local franchise since 1989. Maid Brigade of Greater Fort Worth operates in many surrounding cities, such as Arlington, Burleson, Lake Worth, and Mansfield.
