How To Protect Surfaces From Campylobacter

The Food Standards Agency is warning people not to wash turkeys before cooking them this Christmas. The reason is campylobacter. This common cause of food poisoning is often contracted as a result of splashes from washing poultry.

If you hold raw poultry under a tap, you will most likely splash bacteria onto your kitchen surfaces where it will quickly multiply and pose a serious health risk. Walls are particular danger zone because they are often not cleaned properly. CleanClad, the market-leading brand of hygienic wall cladding in the UK, helps you eliminate this threat.

Use wall cladding to stamp out campylobacter

You can fight campylobacter with good hygiene practices. Ensure your kitchen surfaces are not cracked, peeled or tiled. A smooth surface that can be thoroughly cleaned and sanitised quickly offers the best protection.

A spokesman for CleanClad said; “Sadly, this time of year is often ruined by poor hygiene. We help homeowners and those in the catering business keep campylobacter and other nasty bacteria at bay with durable PVC surfaces that can be cleaned to clinical standards. Designed to support total hygiene, our hygienic wall cladding is a must-have if you want to avoid food poisoning.”
