A South West-based nursery group has invested in the latest anti-viral fogging equipment to keep its 24 settings safe.

Mama Bear’s Day Nurseries & Pre-School group, a family-run business operating across Bristol, Somerset and Devon, has introduced fogging machines in all of its nurseries in order to sanitise each room at the end of the day.

Nursery leaders say that fogging decontamination is the fastest and most effective way to sanitise a space and will help to protect staff and children against coronavirus and other germs. 

Tony Driffield, who co-owns Mama Bear’s with wife Bev, said: “We are delighted to introduce our new fogging procedures to each of our 24 nurseries. Using this equipment has been proven to kill the Covid-19 virus so it gives further reassurance to both our staff and parents that the settings are as safe as possible.

“The machines work by covering the whole room with tiny droplets of a non-toxic, non-alcoholic, water-based sanitising solution.

“It’s safe to use on all surfaces including soft furnishings, textiles, wood, metal and plastic and we will be using the equipment at the end of each day to sanitise the nursery.

“We have worked throughout the pandemic, supporting key-worker and vulnerable families, and more recently we have been open to all families. This has meant that our Covid-19 procedures are firmly in place and this latest precaution is just another tool to ensure our environments are as hygienic as possible.”
