Protecting and Maintaining Vinyl Upholstery in Professional Clinics
Hard surface disinfectants are designed for non-porous surfaces such as countertops, floors, and door handles. However, they can damage soft surfaces like vinyl upholstery.
Soft surfaces include massage tables, stools, bolsters, and pillow protectors.
During the 2020 pandemic, clinic cleaning protocols became more rigorous, often including harsher disinfectants. While these chemicals are effective, improper use can shorten the lifespan of vinyl equipment. Protecting your investment while maintaining high hygiene standards is critical.
Why Caring for Vinyl Upholstery Matters
Your massage table is a major professional investment. Proper vinyl care ensures longevity, maintains appearance, and keeps surfaces hygienic. Always follow your manufacturer’s care instructions, as improper cleaning can void your warranty.
Approved disinfectant ingredients for vinyl include hydrogen peroxide, bleach, and alcohol. After disinfecting, always rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to preserve the material.
Suggested Cleaning Method for Vinyl
When using harsher disinfectants, follow these steps:
- Step 1: Use the mildest solution available and follow all safety instructions.
- Step 2: After the required contact time, wipe vinyl with a mild soap and water solution.
- Step 3: Dry the area with a separate soft cloth to prevent damage.
- Step 4: Condition the vinyl to avoid drying and cracking.
We recommend the Germiphene product line. The Genie Plus solution provides a protective coating that resists soil, bacteria, mold, and biofilm, helping to preserve your vinyl upholstery.
Earthlite Vinyl Care Instructions
For Earthlite vinyl, use disinfectants with the following active ingredients:
- Hydrogen peroxide
- Isopropyl alcohol / Isopropanol alcohol
- Bleach 1:10 (diluted)
- Keep tables out of extreme heat or cold.
- Avoid storing tables in vehicles where temperatures fluctuate.
- Do not saturate the vinyl with disinfectant.
Rinse with clean water after disinfecting to remove residue, which can degrade vinyl over time. Always dry thoroughly before storage.
BodyBest Challenger Vinyl Care
BodyBest “Challenger Vinyl” withstands harsh chemicals such as bleach 1:10, isopropyl alcohol, and Virox 5. For best results:
- Use the mildest disinfectant concentration possible.
- After contact time, wipe with mild soap and water.
- Dry completely with a separate cloth before storage.
The Challenger vinyl coating features anti-stain, anti-bacterial, and anti-mildew properties. Most stains are removed with soap and water; a soft bristle brush can help on stubborn areas.
Nomad Vinyl Care Instructions
For Nomad vinyl:
- Mix one cap of mild hand soap with 1 litre of water in a spray bottle.
- Spray evenly over the surface and wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Dry immediately with a soft cloth.
Following these professional care steps ensures vinyl longevity, preserves your investment, and keeps your clinic equipment hygienic and safe for clients.
