National Colour Coding

Controlling Cross Contamination

The National Colour coding was introduced in 2016 primarily to assist in the control of cross-contamination of bacteria, viruses etc, transferring from high-risk areas to low-risk areas during cleaning procedures.

The code was developed to support the National Patient Safety Agency. National Colour Coding System relied on four core colours - red, blue, green, and yellow. It was recommended that all NHS facilities adopt this code as a standard code of practice.

Bradfield Property Management decided to introduce the National Colour Coding for commercial premises as our standard code of practice in 2017.

Contacted Bradfield after multiple bad experiences with other companies in the area, they have been nothing but professional, reliable and they continue to exceed our expectations.

They have also been a big help in arranging for other works to be carried out around our site with their team of sub-contractors.
