COVID-19 has dramatically reshaped our daily lives, underscoring the crucial need for regular and meticulous cleaning and disinfection practices. At GSFM, our COVID-19 disinfection program, established in 2020, is specifically tailored to support offices, workplaces, and domestic environments in maintaining safe and hygienic spaces.

Our cleaning team undergoes rigorous training in compliance with Safework Australia and Department of Health and Human Services guidelines. Equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and specialized sanitizing and disinfection products, we adhere to strict protocols to ensure the thorough disinfection of all environments, effectively mitigating the risk of viral transmission.

In alignment with the guidelines set forth by the Victorian government, DHHS, and Safework Australia, workplaces must prioritize both cleaning and disinfection. Cleaning involves removing dirt and germs from surfaces, while disinfection involves utilizing chemicals to effectively kill germs. To achieve comprehensive disinfection, we employ hospital-grade disinfectants, safeguarding the safety of your environment.

During the initial cleaning phase, our team meticulously identifies and addresses “high-touch” areas such as electronics, desks, benchtops, doors, and door handles. Subsequently, we apply hospital-grade disinfectant to all surfaces, allowing it to remain for 10 minutes to ensure the effective elimination of any remaining viruses.

You can rely on GSFM to deliver thorough COVID-19 disinfection services for your home or workplace. Contact us today for more information or to schedule a service.


A Disinfectant Clean entails our cleaners performing the same thorough services as usual, following the same checklists. However, they exclusively use products specifically designed to disinfect surfaces, effectively eliminating all germs, bacteria, and viruses upon contact. This additional service is ideal when you want to ensure the complete eradication of various pathogens throughout your home.

Understanding the distinction between standard cleaning products and disinfectant products can be perplexing. While regular soap-based products are effective at breaking down COVID-19 when applied to a surface and rubbed in, disinfectant products work differently. They directly kill the virus upon contact, without the need for mixing with the virus itself. Essentially, both types of products are effective, but disinfectant products achieve the desired outcome without requiring vigorous scrubbing.
