Biological risk locations are spaces contaminated by microorganisms (viruses, bacteria or fungi), sometimes containing biological traces (blood, feces, vomit, among other bodily fluids), which pose a risk to human or animal health, where they may suffer damage as a result of contact (direct or indirect) or exposure to biological agents.

A death does not necessarily have to occur for a location to be classified as a biological risk location. Other situations that pose a risk to public health are also considered biological risk locations. For more information, please consult all of our services.

No, according to Portuguese legislation, only companies with certification in this area can carry out cleaning and disinfection of these places, with the DEATHCLEAN^® the only legally certified company and the pioneer that launched this specialized service in Portugal in 2008. For more information, please visit our page on "Legislation".

A company specializing in biological risk has, among other skills, the necessary knowledge to eliminate all existing microorganisms, using the most appropriate cleaning and disinfection techniques for each level of contamination, in compliance with all applicable legislation.

Companies that are not specialized do not have any basic training to intervene in these places, failing to comply with the law, turning the cases into an experiment, failing to successfully remove the contamination, putting the health of those who frequent the place at risk.

THE DEATHCLEAN^® is a pioneering company that has been involved since 2008 in resolving public health risk situations, in terms of cleaning and disinfecting spaces contaminated with biological risk.

It is the only entity in Europe that is internationally certified in this area, acquiring technical skills and extensive experience, and is currently the only company that complies with Portuguese legislation, ensuring that exposure to biological agents does not pose a risk to the safety and health of workers or customers.
