The Cleaning and Hygiene Suppliers Association (CHSA) has warned COVID-19 will have a further impact on the cleaning, hygiene and PPE supply chain.
In a recent bulletin, the CHSA said: “Supply-side shortages in biocides and virucides, gloves, disposable polythene aprons and non-woven cleaning wipes continue.
“Manufacturers are working hard to obtain new supplies, ramp up production in the UK and Europe and develop alternatives but supply will continue to be challenging for the foreseeable future.”
The British Pest Control Association said it is asking suppliers to plan for shortages now and forewarn customers that the impact on the supply chain will continue to be a challenge.
