FLEETDRIVE
helped bring sanitization to all our vehicle fleets
across Australia.”—Tony Tannnous
We also uncovered a need for non-alcoholic
hand sterilisers. Most hand sanitisers contain
70% alcohol. At this concentration alcohol
is both drying to hands and remains as a
flammable residue. This is simply dangerous to
some transport fleets. We began distributing
the single-use, PUSHEX hand wipes from the
Middle East that contained the active ingredient
of 0.1300% benzalkonium chloride—a TGA
recognised sterilant. Being alcohol free, these
wipes are both excellent personal protection, and
a unique promotional product during these Covid
times.
In August GRID Group was awarded the Vehicle
Sanitisation Station tender for point-to-point
vehicles, by the NSW Government, at Leumeah.
Weeks prior we also introduced a sanitised
vehicle drop-off service for fleet managers,
service centres and car yards.
Covid19 has created the single biggest challenge
and opportunity for our business. Grid Group has
had to adapt to new markets, improve processes
and business models in the most incredible of
economic conditions. Covid19 changed the way
we did business from just cleaning fleet vehicles,
to also making sure they were safe.
