RISK MANAGEMENT AND
BUSINESS CONTINUITY
STANDARDS
Following the outbreak of Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), BSI
have considered how they can actively support and
contribute towards the collective efforts in mitigating the
potential risks caused by this global health issue amongst
the UK business community.
After careful consideration of the information available, BSI have
made available 11 standards to help guide businesses during
these uncertain times.
In addition, BSI is partnering with the Emergency Planning
College (EPC), part of the Cabinet Office Civil Contingencies
Secretariat, to deliver a series of best practice webinars around
business continuity and crisis management.
These standards offer information and practical advice for
businesses and individuals, which help the business community
navigate the challenges and potential risks associated with the
current global crisis.
BSI will constantly be reviewing the situation in order to ensure
that they are working with businesses in the most effective and
supportive way in these extraordinary times.

ISTOBAL DEVELOPS ARCHES FOR THE
DISINFECTION OF PPE AND THE EXTERIOR OF
VEHICLES IN ITS FIGHT AGAINST COVID-19
The Spanish group ISTOBAL, wash and care solutions provider for the automotive industry,
has developed automatic arches for the disinfection of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)
of health personnel, security forces and emergencies personnel in addition to arches for the
external disinfection of vehicles in order to fight against COVID-19.
The company has started the production of this equipment so that it can be installed near main
accesses, quarantine areas, operating rooms, ICUs and other points. In this way, ISTOBAL
reinvents itself with the manufacture of this equipment, adapting part of its production to combat the
spread of the pandemic. In just two weeks, it has adapted its chemical application technology on
vehicles for the manufacture of arches that can spray disinfectant on the PPE of restrooms, security
and emergency departments, quickly and completely in 15 seconds.
With a capacity to disinfect more than 4,000 people with PPE a day, this arch measures two meters
in height and is easy to install, as it incorporates supports that can be comfortably attached to the
ground or to any platform. It is made up of eight sprinklers that spray disinfectant product on the
PPE of health and safety and emergency forces and are automatically activated in its path thanks to
a photocell detection system that activates the sprinklers of this nebulisation system.
