Domex brings Mumbai back on track!

A picture of a man bowing down at the station in reverence to the Mumbai locals recently melted a million hearts. Mumbai’s local trains had just resumed operations after an 11-month lull. Down on his knees, with his hands folded and forehead touching the foot-stand, he worshipped the train he was going to board. His life depends on it, and that was his way of showing gratitude. As the heartwarming photo continues to be shared widely on social media, it shows what these locals mean to the average Mumbaikar. As many as 26 lakh residents of the maximum city took these trains on February 1st.

The return of the Mumbai locals might have given city dwellers a ray of hope, but authorities are aware of the mammoth responsibility this move comes with. Overcrowded platforms, trains and long queues at the ticket counters mean increased health risks at this sensitive time, hence proper disinfection of stations, tracks and platforms is mandatory and is of the highest priority. For this, the authorities could only entrust true experts. Domex, a clinical disinfection brand with nearly 90 years of expertise in cleaning and hygiene, has taken on the responsibility of keeping Mumbaikars safe as they begin travelling in their local lifeline again. As we speak, Domex has taken up Disinfection Drive at 5 of the busiest stations of Mumbai, with 2 stations being disinfected every week.

What has further made disinfection at Mumbai stations extremely important is that Mumbai has one of the largest and busiest commuter train systems in the world. Before the pandemic, 2,300 train services were operational every single day for over 7.5 million people commuting daily. People from all walks of life, college-goers, working-class, businessmen, daily wage labourers, clerks, construction workers, dabbawalas to homemakers, each section of the society depended on these trains whether it has been for transportation or for their source of livelihood. The safety of all these people, boarding these trains once again, is of utmost concern and Domex has stepped in to support this by providing effective disinfection.
