RK Environmental Introduces Virucidal Program Service to Help Clients with COVID-19 Crisis Management

Ff68a692 213a 4fb5 9c0be18b8939dc93
March 26, 2020

RK Environmental Services (RKE) has expanded its efforts to keep employees in the food and pharmaceutical industries safe, while protecting their brands.

The new Virucidal Program Service can be applied to any areas that should be disinfected and sanitized. It’s a highly effective solution that kills harmful germs, pathogens, bacteria, fungi, viruses, small flies, and COVID-19. RKE offers this service to complement the food safety program food facilities already have in place to strengthen their COVID-19 crisis management process.

“The response to our disinfectant, sanitization, and virucidal program has been well-received by our clients, as an effective and complementary mitigation strategy against COVID-19,” says Hank Hirsch, president, RK Environmental Services. “It’s a great feeling to be able to support our clients and help foster a safe work environment.” Hirsch further stated that, “It’s critically important, now more than ever, to help our clients ensure employee health and well-being.”
