Government & Public Buildings

Daily public access with shared contact across entrances, service counters, waiting areas, and restrooms—where consistent coverage supports public infrastructure.

Public buildings serve large and diverse populations through shared spaces and service points. GermScan is positioned as an automated layer that complements existing custodial programs in the highest-contact zones.

Operational reality in public buildings

Public buildings have continuous turnover across shared entrances, counters, and waiting areas. Manual cleaning is essential, but practical gaps exist between contacts—particularly during peak service hours.

High turnover access

Daily public access concentrates touchpoints at entry, screening, and service desks.

Shared infrastructure

Elevators, door hardware, kiosks, and restrooms create repeat-contact surfaces across buildings.

Procurement-ready deployment

Designed for consistent rollouts across multi-site public infrastructure while supporting existing custodial workflows.

Priority deployment zones

Focus on service points and shared surfaces with high public turnover where automation adds the most operational value.

Public Building Door Handles & Push Plates: ~700–2,000 CFU per cm²
Frequently touched entrances/exits in courthouses, city halls, municipal offices, and libraries show elevated contamination due to constant traffic. (Journal of Environmental Health – public facility surface studies)
Public Computer Terminals & Kiosk Touchscreens: ~900–2,500 CFU per cm²
Shared terminals in government service centers and information kiosks accumulate high microbial loads from repeated public use. (American Journal of Infection Control – shared touchscreen hygiene research)
Elevator Buttons & Handrails (Public Buildings): ~1,000–2,700 CFU per cm²
Elevators in public facilities see heavy use by visitors and staff, making buttons and rails significant contact points. (Environmental Health Perspectives – vertical transit surface sampling)
Public Seating & Waiting Area Armrests: ~600–1,800 CFU per cm²
Seats in waiting areas (DMV, social services, municipal lobbies) accumulate microbes from prolonged contact and intermittent cleaning. (Journal of Applied Microbiology – seating surface benchmarks)
