Beyond the personal cost, the spread of the coronavirus has shaken the foundations of all kinds of businesses located in Mallorca, Spain and all over the world. The unexpected shock of COVID-19 has created a new scenario, forcing companies and establishments to adapt to rules of the game that were previously unknown. Even if nothing will ever be exactly the same as before, the sanitary protocols. to normality can certainly be travelled in a safer manner. At <\/span>Estel<\/b><\/a> we use <\/span>smart technology against COVID-19<\/b> in all the different sectors we work in, to ensure compliance with hygienic sanitary protocols.<\/span><\/p>\n

We <\/span>measure the body temperature<\/b><\/a> of all people who access our establishment by using a thermal camera, which increases control and safety. This process begins with orderly access to the establishment, maintaining safety distance between people.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The thermal camera measures temperature instantly, without contact. If an abnormal temperature is registered, the system gives an audio-visual alarm signal and performs a second temperature reading according to current protocol.<\/span><\/p>\n

Air purification is effective against infection<\/b><\/h2>\n

According to the health authorities, COVID-19 is transmitted through drops produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. When this happens, any employee or customer in the same area might breathe in such drops and get infected. Since the coronavirus can survive in air for up to 3 hours, air purification can help <\/span>decrease the risk of infection.<\/b><\/p>\n

The more traditional air purification methods such as traditional filters are meaningless in this scenario, as they fail to capture particles as microscopic as COVID, and even if they do capture them, they cannot remove them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another option is <\/span>ozone disinfection<\/b><\/a>. Even if this is a very useful tool for disinfection, it can actually be very harmful to health. This is why it must be used by expert personnel and <\/span>under strict control<\/b>, without people present and renewing indoor air once it has been applied. The ozone concentration must be measured to ensure it does not exceed set limits for health protection.<\/span><\/p>\n

The most advisable types of <\/span>air purification<\/b><\/a> against the corona virus, not posing any risks to human health, are:<\/span><\/p>\n
