A hospital in Musgrove Park has invested more than £50,000 in a new environmentally friendly cleaning cloth, it has been revealed.

However the new technology is no ordinary house cleaners dish cloth or office cleaning wipe-down device and its makers claim it will revolutionise hospital cleaning.

The Jonmaster microfibre system supposedly removes up to 99.9 per cent of all bacteria from surfaces without the use of chemicals.

So far the commercial cleaners at the hospital have claimed that the new cloths work "like magic".

Denise Acreman, who has no doubt seen plenty of nasty spills in her job as a Accident & Emergency cleaner, claims that she has never found floor and carpet cleaning so easy.

She said: "I wasn't sure at first as I've always had to use buckets of water and chemicals which are heavy to cart around.

"But this is so easy and convenient; my floors have never been cleaner."

The hospital expects to introduce the new cloths across its wards and main departments over the next few weeks.
