In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, we are seeing an upsurge in novel technologies and measures undertaken by the manufacturers of consumer packaged goods (CPG) to maintain safe hygiene and disinfection practices while manufacturing, packaging and delivering goods.
On the consumer end, it is equally important to follow stringent measures to minimize the risk of spreading viral contamination while handling food and goods both while procuring essential products at stores or while receiving packages at home. The SARS-CoV-2 is known to have varying aerosol and surface stability depending on the surface composition.
Hence, in addition to following best hygiene practices, such as washing hands and sanitizing high touch surfaces often, novel disinfection methods can play a vital role in preventing the spread of viruses.
