Keeping your staff, visitors, patients and residents safe
JLA has been providing infection control solutions since 1973. With our state-of-the-art equipment, you can rely on us to prevent cross-contamination, meet disinfection standards, and remediate mould.
Whatever health and safety challenges your business faces, commercial infection prevention and control equipment from JLA can help reduce the risk of cross-contamination and ensure your business retains full regulatory compliance.Â
Our expertise and equipment covers air, surface and laundry disinfection solutions, helping you to maintain the highest standards of hygiene and compliance across your premises.
Air filtration systems
Our medical grade air filtration technology meets the demands of care homes, hospitals and other social care settings.
Our discreet yet powerful floor mounted air filtration units are designed to remove dirty air and replace with clean air to prevent the spread of airborne particles, promoting safer air.
Amid the renewed threat posed by airborne infections like COVID-19, effective air purification is a priority for care homes and other inpatient facilities. JLA commercial air purifiers can remove 99.9% of airborne pathogens, including viruses, fungi, bacteria, and other harmful pollutants.
Laundry disinfection
OTEX technology from JLA represents the next generation in laundry disinfection, helping to maintain unrivalled infection control.
Our OTEX laundry systems are capable of killing up to 99.9% of harmful bacteria, viruses, pathogens, coronaviruses and moulds even at low temperatures during every wash cycle.
Such is the cleaning power of OTEX laundry systems that the technology meets the Department of Health’s HTM 01-04 guidelines for infection control. This, coupled with a unique auditing system, provides total peace of mind in infection prevention.Â
Mould remediation
Following the introduction of Awaab's Law, landlords will now be fully accountable for the service they provide to their residents, resulting in a crackdown on damp and mould.
When used following your deep clean procedures, JLA’s OTEX room sanitisers are proven to safely remove mould spores to deliver higher levels of protection for your residents.
Ozone room sanitisers kill airborne bacteria, mould spores and pathogens to protect residents from the affects of mould and is an approved product under the Biocidal Products Regulations (BPR).Â
