The research center Mapei Sport, an absolute point of reference for those who practice competitive sports, last year decided to entrust ASKYClean srl SB, a Varese-based Benefit Company, with the definition of its sanitization protocols aimed at allowing its activities to be carried out in maximum safety. The protocols were written by Prof. Maurizio Podico Scientific Director of ASKYClean, Biologist and lecturer at the University of ParmaThis initiative has also fostered strong collaboration with the medical and diagnostic world, which is on the front lines in the fight against Covid-19.
The connection with cycling
The cycling world got to know ASKYClean on the occasion of the Tour of Italy of last year when the pink caravan traveled for three weeks enclosed in a bubble created specifically to safeguard the health of athletes, team personnel, and members of the organization. On that occasion, the press was particularly intrigued by the great attention and care that the Team UAE Emirates he devoted himself daily to sanitization of all environments frequented by athletes and team staff.
The authors of the sanitization activity were precisely the operators of ASKYClean whose mission consists inincrease the safety of work and daily living environments trying to reduce the impact of human activities on the environment.
A specific protocol
To achieve these important objectives, the “ASKYClean integrated sanitization protocol”The latter involves the use of the hydrogen peroxide which is not only the gold standard for effectiveness as a sanitizer, but also the only active ingredient that does not create toxic substances as it generates only water and oxygen.
Advanced technology
ASKYClean had already had contacts with the cycling world by collaborating with the Team Astana during the 2019 Giro d'Italia to sanitize all areas. The results were so satisfactory that they attracted the attention of several universities. and as far as Team cycling is concerned UAE Emirates. The latter wanted ASKYClean technicians alongside him in all the races scheduled in the 2020 season. The professionalism shown and the results achieved also arise from the technological choices that the company implemented right from the start, through the use of “MicroDefender”This machine, which is usually used in the operating room, has guaranteed the perfect execution and dissemination of the ASKYClean Protocol.


Together with the yellow jersey
From the beginning of August to the end of October the ASKYClean staff followed the Team UAE Emirates for a full 96 days of racing (Tour de France, Giro d'Italia, Vuelta etc.) making a total of 5.394 sanitizations. Microdefender has been such a traveling companion of Tadej Pogacar on his way to winning the Tour de FranceA piece of the Slovenian's yellow jersey is most likely the result of the meticulous work carried out by ASKYClean technicians. During the three weeks of the race, they ensured a safe environment that positively impacted the athlete's mental well-being.
Even on motorcycles
ASKYClean's closeness to the world of sport is also confirmed by the collaboration throughout the past season with the Team MV Agusta engaged in the Moto2 World Championship.
Healthcare environments
It is also worth mentioning the following: numerous activities carried out in RSA, to support voluntary activities through the sanitization of emergency vehicles. Worth noting are the collaborations with two leading healthcare providers in Varese, such as Sirio Multi-Specialist Medical Center and New Isber Medicine Physiotherapy CenterBoth facilities have adopted the ASKYClean Protocols and are treated regularly and consistently to ensure patients are receiving care and treatment in a completely safe environment.
Self-service sanitization
ASKYClean also provides staff training to keep environments safe after they've been sanitized. We also collaborate with the Varese Highway Police with a series of measures to ensure the safety of operational staff. Another collaboration is with the Varese Racecourse, where the stables' quarters and rooms are sanitized after each race. The next goal that ASKYClean technicians are working on is to allow each individual to independently sanitize their own home..
