Christmas present for Vilnius residents: 300 steam-disinfected buses hit the streets

“The passengers of the city received the best gift of Advent. The cleaning professionals who visited the bus fleet not only thoroughly disinfected all vehicles, but also presented the most modern technologies with which we could diversify and facilitate our daily work in the future, “said Rimantas Markauskas, Managing Director of Vilnius Public Transport, happy with the Clean Brothers initiative in Vilnius.

The United Pandemic

According to him, the health of passengers today is the top priority, especially now that the scale of the virus rampant in the country is only growing. “The virus has become our daily challenge, with which we work every day to clean and disinfect vehicles. However, the difficult period of the pandemic revealed one of the most important characteristics of the nation: unity. By helping each other, we are stronger, “said R. Markauskas.

Algirdas Plečkaitis, responsible for Clean Brothers’ network of car cleaning centers, also ensures that unification is very important for the common goal. According to him, the most important thing that we can give to each other right now is well-being. “We care about people’s health and safety, we want Vilnius residents to know the holidays a little happier and feel at least a little calmer when driving on the streets of Vilnius,” he said about the importance of the initiative.

A. Plečkaitis calls an exclusive disinfection campaign a Christmas present for the city, its residents and guests. “We wanted it to reach as many people as possible. We are pleased that this solution has both social benefits such as help and prevention; after all, thousands of people use the buses and now they will be able to travel with more courage and safety on their usual routes, ”said A. Plečkaitis.

The pandemic, he said, is a real test for both companies and society. Especially now that movement is restricted as the Christmas season approaches, when, while protecting ourselves, we try to avoid unnecessary contact, when we cannot meet our loved ones, hug them. But reluctantly wanting to find ways to get from point A to point B, many people use bus and trolley services every day.

Modern disinfection cannons were used.

Realizing the importance of public transportation, the Clean Brothers decided to disinfect it and cleaned 300 buses of various sizes. The general virus and bacteria cleaning took about 2.5 hours; For this purpose, the “Cleaning Brothers” used the most modern and recently updated equipment: new disinfection cannons from an American manufacturer.

“The drip cannons, along with the disinfectant cold vapor, quickly cover large areas: the vapor collects and sticks all bacteria and viruses to the surface. Then the disinfectant in the drops is activated and all the viruses die, ”said A. Plečkaitis.

For such a clean campaign, the buses were disinfected with cannons due to the extremely fast and efficient result: cleaning the huge contents of each bus manually would be physically difficult, and the enormous possibilities of the cannons make the result much easier, disinfecting a bus for up to two minutes.

“Before that, we used other disinfection technology. Its operation was similar, but the duration was much longer, the car had to be ventilated longer after disinfection. Now we were able to do everything not only with quality, but also quickly, providing the maximum service without additional worries, ”said A. Plečkaitis.

According to him, such a service can also be tested by car drivers, disinfection with steam cannons is also recommended in offices and various types of premises; To achieve the best results, the interlocutor recommends disinfecting the booth at least once a week. Starting next week, the “Clean Brothers” have prepared a festive surprise for their customers: when buying any cleaning service, the car will be disinfected with steam cannons for free.
