About
Clear Standard ensures cleaning and safety as a strategic focus for organizations. Similar to, building construction standards, fire safety and food inspection, cleaning practices are now about safety and infection prevention. Similar to the transformations that occurred in healthcare in the 19th century and food safety in the 20th century, disinfection is a matter of public safety.
As an independent organization, Clear Standard has borrowed processes and techniques from Healthcare and the Food Safety industry to create a simple and effective approach to inspect and showcase cleaning efforts in any organization. We have also partnered with leading experts with backgrounds in biorisk, food safety protocols and infection prevention to create a world class solution for small, medium and large organizations.
