Perfect Clean: Clean Matters

From the first in-person APIC Annual Conference in three years, Karl Baker, Senior VP of Sales and Marketing at Perfect Clean, recognized how vital in-person interactions are to collaboration and networking. “Networking in person, which hasn’t been possible in the virtual forums,” explained Baker.

In the event’s 50th year, Lurlie Moro, SE Regional Manager of Perfect Clean, said, “it’s a critical meeting to gather all infection preventionists to gather their knowledge.” Perfect Clean joined the event as a strategic partner this year. APIC does a great job of bringing people together. Baker said that “commitment to excellence and their recognition of excellence” is fundamental to making the conference what it is.

Baker and Moro witnessed trends in the work of infection prevention, the crossover of departments for collaboration, and support for their teams in the wake of the pandemic. Baker said, “there’s a lot more focus on recognizing the work behind the scenes they have put in place.”

Perfect Clean focused on connecting with clients, collaborating with partners, and showcasing products. UMF Corporation’s products include PerfectCLEAN, Micrillon, PCIPAD, LENStronic, and the C-PULL. These products are designed to reduce preventative HAI’s (healthcare-acquired infections) and are deployed using an ONEperROOM methodology which is designed to prevent patient room-to-room cross-contamination.

Moro wanted clients to take away that the Perfect Clean product line has been tried and tested. “[This year] we’re focusing on what we offer is rooted in science,” said Moro. It’s evidence-based and backed by third-party testing to prove effectiveness. This was critical, in addition to showing potential clients that their products are practical and easy to use and implement.
