A Smarter Way to Clean Your Home

Cleaning our home is considered to be a tedious job, but it doesn’t have to be like that if you approach it in the right way. If you organize yourself well and know how and when to do certain things, you’ll make your life easier, at least cleaning-wise. Keep reading if you want to find out more about a smarter way to clean your home. 

  • Put everything in its place right away

As far as some useful cleaning tips are concerned, tip number one refers to putting things in their place right away. This habit will prevent you from creating a mess, and when you don’t have a mess – it’s easier a.k.a. faster to clean. This refers to many things that create a mess in our home. For example, when you get back home, make sure to put your keys, bag and coat in the places intended for them. The same goes for taking off your clothes – don’t just lay them out on the chair or bed. 

  • Vacuum and mop the floors

We bring in our home lots of dirt, dust and different bacteria, usually on our shoes. In order to keep our home free of these things, we need to keep the floor in our home clean. Depending on the size and age of your family members, you should vacuum and mop the floors once to three times a week. If you own a pet as well, you should probably do it more often. However, if you’re really busy and don’t have much time to vacuum and mop the floors on a daily basis, you can make your life easier by investing in a smart robotic vacuum system that you can easily control from your smartphone. It will do the hard work for you while you’re working or relaxing – think about it!

  • Tackle the windows

Even though window cleaning seems like a challenging job and sparkly windows without streaks like something that is hardly achievable – with a few simple tips and tricks, it doesn’t have to be like that. The first rule to keeping windows clean is to clean them often and not allow dust to build up. The second rule is to get the necessary cleaning products and supplies: you’ll need a brush for dusting off the windows, a detergent, a squeegee and a soft cloth. And the third rule is to learn how to clean windows properly for the best effect. The first step is to dust off the windows. The next move is to spray on the detergent on the windows, then to use a squeegee to dry them and ultimately to wipe them gently with a soft cloth. The final step is to clean window sills. Luckily, it is enough to clean windows a few times a year!

  • Keep the kitchen counters neat

We mess up the kitchen counters when we make coffee in the morning when we prepare different meals, load and unload the dishwasher. It’s easy to clean them if we tackle the mess right away and when there’s nothing on top of them, right? In order to be able to do this right away and even when we’re in a hurry, it’s best to keep them things-free. 

  • Clean the surfaces in the bathroom

Surfaces in the bathroom such as the sink, shower or tub and the toilet get dirty on a daily basis and it’s important to clean them promptly. The most efficient way to do this is to do it after each use, or once a day. That will keep the surfaces clean and bacteria-free. 

  • Make your bed

Making your bed seems like a totally useless job – many people think why to waste time on making the bed when you’re going to mess it up anyway in the evening. However, this simple task that takes you a few moments instantly makes your bedroom look tidier and nicer. 

With the right products and organization, you can make cleaning your home a piece of cake. These tips will help you to be more productive and efficient in keeping your home neat and clean.

How do LCD Screens Work?

How do LCD Screens Work?

Modern society has depended on LCD screens since the digital watch was invented in the 1970s. Since then, they have gradually permeated our lives in the form of mobile phones, laptops, TVs, microwaves and even ovens. So how do they work, exactly?

There are millions of colour pixels in every kind of screen, whether it is CRT, LED or plasma. In every screen, these pixels are rapidly turned on and off in order to create a moving image. Each type of screen does this differently. Liquid crystal displays (LCDs) turn pixels on or off by rotating polarised light. This may sound simple enough, but the chemistry behind it is pretty complex. For more extensive chemistry knowledge, head to Chemicals.co.uk.

What are Liquid Crystals?

Until 1879, there were 3 known states of matter: solid, liquid and gaseous. Then plasma was discovered and a fourth was added to the list. Scientists thought that all states of matter had been identified – until 1888, when Friedrich Reinitzer discovered something very peculiar.

Reinitzer had discovered a substance that was neither solid nor liquid, but something in the middle. These substances became known as liquid crystals (LCs), and these mesophases are used in many things besides your TV screen. They are also commonly found in:

  • Proteins
  • Some clays
  • Mood rings
  • Thermometers
  • Cell membranes
  • Soaps and detergents

Like the molecules in a solid, liquid crystals maintain their orientation and display similar symmetry properties. Unlike solids, however, liquid crystals can move around and flow like a liquid. Therefore, liquid crystals can be defined as having the order of a solid and flexibility of a liquid. 

LC Phases

Liquid crystals can exist in several states. These can be categorised into 3 main phases: thermotropic, lyotropic and metallotropic. Most liquid crystals are either thermotropic or lyotropic, but it is thermotropic LCs that make LCD screens possible. 

Thermotropic Liquid Crystals

Thermotropic LCs are sensitive to temperature changes. At high temperatures, the components of this liquid crystal will gain energy and undergo a phase transition into an isotropic liquid. At low temperatures, the thermotropic phase cannot be supported and the LC will enter a glass phase. 

There are many sub-states to thermotropic liquid crystals, but the one that LCD screens are interested in is the nematic phase. When in this state, LC molecules can flow like a liquid whilst maintaining an order. 

Their natural twisted structure can also be straightened out by an electric current. This behaviour is important because it is exactly how pixels in an LCD screen are turned on or off. But before the liquid crystals can do this, they first need polarised light. 

What is Polarised Light?

Normal sunlight is classified as unpolarised because its light waves vibrate in every plane, i.e. horizontally, vertically, diagonally and every other direction. Polarised light, then, is simply when light waves have been manipulated so that they only vibrate in a single direction, known as a plane.

When light is polarised, it appears darker because only certain light waves are able to pass through. This is how polarising sunglasses work. They contain a filter that only allows light waves vibrating on a single plane, e.g. vertically, to pass through. Light waves that vibrate horizontally, for example, will not be able to pass through the filter, making the light appear darker. 

In fact, if you put 2 pairs of polarising sunglasses on top of each other and turn one of them to a 90° angle, no light will be able get through and the glasses will turn black. This exact same principle is used in LCD screens to turn pixels on and off. 

How do LCD Screens Work?

In order for an LCD screen to operate, a few materials are required. First, a backlight is positioned at the back of the screen. This is needed because LCD screens cannot produce light by themselves and require a source of illumination in order to create an image. 

Then two pieces of glass are coated on one side with a polarising film. The film on the first piece of glass faces the backlight and will only let vertical light waves, for example, pass through. The second polarising filter is then placed at a 90° angle to the first piece so that only horizontal light waves, for example, will be able to pass through. 

The back of the first piece of polarising glass is also coated with a special polymer that creates microscopic grooves in the direction of the filter. A layer of nematic light crystals is then added on top so that their orientation is aligned to the direction of the grooves and filter.  

Between the two pieces of pieces of polarising glass is also a negative and positive electrode. These are important because they cause the light crystals to either twist or straighten. Here’s how it works:

  1. The light from the backlight travels forwards. When it reaches the first polarising filter, only light waves vibrating on a single plane (e.g. vertically) can pass through.
  2. The light waves then pass through the layer of liquid crystals. If there is no electric current, the LCs have a twisted structure and are able to rotate the polarised light as it passes through.
  3. The polarised light waves are now vibrating horizontally and are able to pass through the second polarising filter which is at a 90° angle to the first one.
  4. The light can then reach the relative pixels and switch them on. There are millions of red, blue and green pixels in a screen and when they light up, they create an image.
  5. However, if the electric current is switched on, the liquid crystals straighten up and do not rotate the polarised light as it passes through. 
  6. Since the light is still vibrating on the vertical plane, it cannot pass through the second, horizontal filter and the relevant pixels remain dark and switched off.

LCD screens can employ this process multiple times every second, resulting in the rapid activation and deactivation of pixels. It happens so rapidly that it creates a moving image.

A lot of chemistry takes place inside your TV, laptop or phone screen, showing how integral science really is in our everyday lives.

10 Details Every Living Room Should Have

10 Details Every Living Room Should Have

“The devil is in the details” is a saying true both for life and home décor. The living room, as the centre of social life, comes with the biggest potential for detailing.

From window treatments to a neatly placed side table, here are the 10 most important details and improvements to spice up your living room.

1. Adding window treatments

The biggest mistake a homeowner can make is to leave the window area “untreated.” Bare glass panes go well with only a few interior décor styles, such as brutalist interior design, while in most cases, you should cover the windows with draperies, curtains, or install blinds. The colour, the design, and the texture of these window treatments should match the overall décor of the living room.

2. Contrasting colours

Speaking of the colours inside the living room, the biggest surfaces to serve as provisional canvases are the walls and the ceiling. Choose the colour carefully, as it should be lively but not tacky. In this sense, beige, white, or light green are suitable shades.

For the ultimate impression, you should paint the ceiling in a different shade of the colour of the walls to create a light/dark contrast. This small trick can help turn around the drabbest of interiors.

3. Display original artwork

We are so much used to a large painting or the family portrait hanging over the living room sofa, that we hardly notice it. You need to breathe new life into the walls by hanging smaller pictures, posters, and even tapestries. Hanging up art is the surest way to create good vibes in your home. The artwork should be original, so even empty picture frames or your children’s drawings constitute art pieces worthy of display.

4. Where to keep the books?

Booklovers are constantly plagued by the issue of proper storage of their favourite paperbacks. The easiest solution is to build a custom bookshelf that would extend from the floor to the ceiling. Although a compact bookshelf is a good idea, you can use the books as décor pieces. Namely, by distributing sets of books across shelves, cabinets, and even the mantelpiece, you add a touch or cultural refinement to the living room.

5. A coffee table in the right place

A coffee table is a useful piece of furniture in the living room. Its style can match every home decor imaginable; temporary homewares included. With an extra shelf at the bottom, a coffee table can reduce clutter, as you can store magazines inside it.

6. The play of light at night

After dark, the most important detail in the living room is the lighting level. The positioning of light sources, their colour, and intensity determine the overall atmosphere in the room. Instead of going for a single light source mounted on the ceiling, add desk lamps and LED strips to create a play of light.

7. Blending in the TV screen

Ever since the latter half of the 20th century, the TV set has been an integral part of the living room’s décor. The same is today, although the shape and the size of the typical TV have changed dramatically.

The trick is to blend in a wide-screen TV into the room’s décor. Most homeowners opt-out of the entertainment unit and hang the screen directly from the walls, making it appear as yet another piece of artwork.

8. Proportion is important

A large TV can dwarf out furniture pieces in a small living room. Proportion and ratio are, therefore essential in interior design. The furniture can be larger or smaller than the actual size of the room, depending on the effect you wish to achieve.

However, individual pieces of furniture should be disproportionate in relation to one another. For instance, a coffee table significantly taller than the sofa will not only present an inconvenience but it will constitute a real eyesore. 

9. A sea of colourful cushions

The living room sofa is a centrepiece in many homes. The family gathers here to watch TV together, eat, and hold important family conversations. However, it is hard to shake off the sofa’s neutrality in terms of décor, as reupholstering it every couple of years is expensive.

You don’t have to replace the sofa but you can rotate the cushions on it. Choose colourful cushions and pillows of various spaces and sizes to make the living room sofa catch everyone’s eye. 

10. A powerful décor piece: The side table

Speaking of the sofa, it should sit alone, as a side table is a great addition to it. The table is small enough, so you don’t bump into it all the time, yet large enough to place the remote controller, smartphone, or a watch on it. The side table is one of the most efficient tools in combating clutter in the living room. 

If you want a living room where you will spend hours with your family, then don’t skip the 10 details listed above. Improvements such as window ornaments and the placement of housewares will have a deciding impact on the overall atmosphere of the living room as the focal point in every home.

7 Common Reasons for a Garage Door Going Off Track

7 Common Reasons for a Garage Door Going Off Track

A garage door coming off track is a nuisance you do not want to experience. It presents a problem for the owner and everyone in the house.

Many things can make a garage door come off tracks. A simple understanding of what might trigger this is essential. It will go a long way in guiding you towards any danger that might arise. Also, you will be able to keep yourself, your pets, and the family safe.

Your garage door could be a hazard to you and your household, especially kids if handled poorly. To be forewarned is to be forearmed. Knowledge of the common reasons garage doors go off track can go a long way in preventing issues with it. 

If you are wondering: Why has my garage door come off the track? Here are a few common causes of an off-track garage door:

  • Hitting the Garage Door

The most common reason for a garage door coming off track is hitting it with the car. While this happens accidentally, it can result in severe damage to your door. Even if you hit it gently, it can trigger misalignment, which will affect the operation of your garage door.

Should you hit the garage door with your car, make sure to get it inspected as soon as possible. It does not matter if you feel the hit is light and too insignificant to trigger any issue. 

  • Issues with the Lift Cable

The responsibility of the lift cable is to move the garage door up and down. The cables are present on both sides of the door. The lift cables are fixed around the drums linked to a steel shaft. This shaft holds a torsion spring. There are grooves with the drum that must properly align with the lift cable. Any misalignment with the cable can make the cable break.

If a lift cable breaks, the garage door might not come crashing down. However, the entire weight of the heavy door shifts to one side. This weight causes excessive stress on the roller and other components of the door. This can trigger misalignment, which could cause the garage door to come off tracks.

  • Wrong Track Alignment

Another common reason for a garage door to go off track is misaligned tracks. What causes this is loosening and coming off of the bolt holding the horizontal tracks. This could trigger a wobbling of the bracket should there be any vibration. 

A misaligned track makes it very easy for the rollers to come off track. Horizontal tracks manufactured from poor materials often cause this. With this, any forceful impact on the door can make it fall. This makes it critical to go for strong and high-quality horizontal tracks. 

  • Poor Quality Tracks

The Horizontal track is one of the critical parts of your garage door. As a result, you cannot compromise on the quality as low-quality material can make it go off tracks. The material needs to be strong enough to support the weight of the garage door.

A weak horizontal track that cannot hold the weight of your door will cause it to buckle.  This will also cause misalignment of the door. 

Using 14-gauge steel for your horizontal tracks is highly recommended. For added security, reinforce the tracks with L-shaped angle iron. 

  • Worn Out Rollers

Sadly, a problem with one or two rollers is enough to cause serious issues with your garage door. Interestingly, your roller will work fine if one of the rollers breaks. This is due to the presence of the extra rollers to stand in place of the spoilt rollers. The result of this, however, is an additional stress for the remaining rollers.

In time as you use the garage door, you could have a problem with the door. This is due to the additional stress on the remaining rollers because of the unbalanced distribution of weight.

With this, be sure the rollers present in your door are the ones specifically designed for it. The more bearing the rollers have, the better. Excessive friction while opening and closing of the door could make the rollers break.

In the same way, be sure you have the right roller size. There are short stem and long stem rollers. Short stem rollers work for single garage doors while long stem rollers work for double garage doors. 

  • Excessively Cold Temperature

Cold and freezing winter days also affect your garage door. The moisture and cold could make your garage door stuck. As a result, opening and closing it in such a situation could pose a significant threat. Excessive ice could cause the door to stick and be hard to open.

In such a period, opening and closing the door might be pretty hard as the door might not respond to the button. Out of frustration, you might keep hitting the button in the hope that it will open up. This might cause a bigger problem to the garage door, which could make it go off track.

In periods like that, you should melt the door ice with a hairdryer or heat gun.

  • Obstruction on the Path of Door

With the improvement in technology, garage doors these days come with electric eyes. This helps ensure that the path of the door is clear during movement. Not all models, however, have this feature, mostly old models.

With the absence of an electric eye, the door might hit any object left in its paths like the trash can, tools, ladder, or other items. On making contact with the obstruction, it might knock the door off its path.

Conclusion 

Make sure you do not attempt to fix a garage door that has gone off track yourself. Fixing it might cause further damage that you did not plan for. Besides, there is the risk of putting yourself and your household at risk. 

With a faulty garage door, make sure to disconnect it from the power supply. With this, no one will use it and endanger themselves. Make sure you do not force a garage door up or down. You are better off leaving this to a professional technician to handle it.

Why Every Marketer Should Be Implementing IoT in Their Marketing Strategy

The past few decades have seen technological growth that is unprecedented, to put it lightly. What humans once considered advanced technology has become obsolete, replaced by analog and digital tools that simplify processes and increase efficiency, saving us time. Whether implemented in the form of travel, communication, or personal research, it’s easier than ever to remain connected to our past and present. Much of that is thanks to the internet. 

As the internet has progressed and matured, it has caused changes formerly unprecedented: Social media allows us to interact with one another instantaneously; sites like Wikipedia are hubs of collective information; digital platforms have made word of mouth and referral marketing more effective than ever before. 

That last point deserves extra attention, as marketing has undergone a drastic, fundamental shift as technology has improved over the past few decades, especially when we consider a specific topic: the Internet of Things (IoT). What is IoT, how has it affected marketing, and how will it change marketing going forward? 

What Is IoT?

IoT is the collection of internet-connected devices that share data between one another. These include all objects that communicate over data networks, including computers, laptops, and smartphones. But more devices are included in this, too, such as your Google Nest, Amazon Alexa, and Apple Watch. This data connection allows your device to access the internet and further access and store data, from collecting items from your cloud storage to saving a grocery list. 

How IoT Is Affecting Marketing 

As said above, IoT is affecting marketing in drastic ways, as the developments of technology have made it incredibly easy for businesses and marketers so collect, curate, and produce information for digital marketing purposes. But how is all of this added data, collected from internet-connected devices across the world, affecting the digital marketing world? Here are just a few ways:

  • Changing the Way Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Works

Driven by artificial technology, such as natural language processing (NLP), often seen in the form of autocorrect and autofill text features, devices connected to the internet are becoming more efficient at tracking, understanding, and expecting human speech patterns. 

This pattern identification makes it easier for apps and search engines to predict the things a person might say or search for—think of the searches that autocomplete as recommendations when you begin typing in Google’s search bar, which are based on your search history and results related to your history. 

The data collected from AI comprehension of customers’ interests and brand engagement decisions is expected to improve the efficiency of search engine optimization (SEO) platforms. These SEO findings can be introduced into marketing deliverables, making it easier for potential customers to find the niche content they are looking for.  

  • Making It Easier for Data to Be Accessed and Collected 

IoT is going to make it far easier for data to be accessed and collected from various sources. This will be particularly beneficial to marketers working with cross-channel marketing strategies, as they can effectively track how customers first became involved with their brand and how their sales journey transpired from engagement to purchase. Such data will be essential to help marketers identify strengths and weaknesses throughout their marketing channels—all so they can enhance them to improve the customer experience throughout the conversion. 

  • Understanding the Market 

One of IoT’s greatest strengths is its ability to more readily process and handle data collection. This vast collection of data will make it easier for companies to effectively study the market so they can understand the various assets of their industry and how they pertain to their marketing bottom line. 

You Should Be Adding IoT to Your Marketing Strategy

The field of marketing is expected to benefit immensely from the integration of IoT. The applications it offers to businesses and marketers are expected to provide solutions that otherwise would have been unattainable in the past or would have taken far too much time to understand. 

By providing an endless trove of data that can be used for marketing purposes, marketing professionals can expect to better understand their customers while creating content made specifically for them. The reasons you should add IoT to your marketing strategy include:

  • Connecting Everything 

The connectivity of IoT digital marketing makes it the premier asset to target your customers across multiple channels. This collaborative, communicative effort can be implemented in various ways, such as featuring an ad on a podcast that may be streamed through someone’s Alexa. That transference of contact is a goldmine for data identification and collection. 

  • Launching Your Brand Further 

The ability to garner more information about your customers makes IoT an essential tool for your business. Leveraging this information makes it easy for your brand to identify areas for potential growth, seeing strengths within your sales funnel that should be exploited and weaknesses that need to be revised and updated. This increase in information is a prime way to streamline your marketing approach, making it easier for you to talk to your customers and hook them into a conversion. 

The Simplicity of Technology 

One of the best benefits of an IoT marketing strategy is the ease of research and analysis it provides to professionals. No longer do you have to run down data to understand how your program is performing. Instead, IoT’s ability to evaluate and produce raw data into concise graphics and detailed reports makes it possible for any marketer to readily track their business’s performance. 

Furthermore, the real-time reporting it provides digital marketers allows reports to be produced and evaluated instantaneously, no matter the time of day, meaning performance doesn’t have to be hindered by human factors.

Make Your Time Work for You

Most importantly, the simplicity of the data IoT produces is the time saved. No longer will you lose time moving between evaluations from one channel to another. The enhanced connectivity of IoT allows you to keep all of your data in order without having to jump through hoops, meaning you can spend more time understanding the strengths of your program and developing content for your customers. 

Understanding your business’s marketing efforts doesn’t have to be complicated. With a digital IoT marketing strategy, your company can save time and devote mental energy to improving your products, producing content that best resonates with your intended audience. 

Easy Ways to Create Good Vibes in Your Home

Easy Ways to Create Good Vibes in Your Home

A home is your safe space, where you go to rest up after a workday and charge up. Having good vibes in your home is important for your inner peace and for creating a balance with the hectic life outside of the house. Since your home should be where you can completely be yourself, often it’s a place where we overcome some difficult moments.

That’s why creating a positive and uplifting environment is important. Read on to see easy ways to create good vibes in your home.

Clean up your space

A cluttered space creates a cluttered mind. Clutter and out-of-place items have a big impact on our energy and stress levels.

If you find it difficult to move around in your home or you feel overwhelmed by the look of your space, it’s time to de-clutter your home and have a fresh start.

Designating a space for every item in your home will help you keep everything in order.

This is especially important for things you use often. You will save a lot of time and stress if you don’t look for essential items every morning before going to work or school. In addition to a physical cleanse, it’s also important to clean the energy of your home, and you can use Nag Champa incense to do this.

It incorporates a unique blend of herbs used to create the “iconic” incense smell. It can be highly harmonizing, and will work wonders for your home.

Maintain your home

After you have de-cluttered your home it’s important to maintain the clean space. Create a cleaning schedule you can easily follow.

If you leave all your cleaning to once a week, it will take a lot of time, but for some, it’s more manageable that way.

Wash your dishes after every meal, clean the floors every other day, and regularly take out the trash.

Small steps will help you maintain your home easily, and keep up the good vibes.

Create a relaxing space

Different parts of your home have a different vibe – good and bad. Create a space in your home that you can relax and create good vibes in.

This can be a corner with a nice lounge chair where you can read your book, meditate and charge up. It’s best if you can have that space close to a window or door with natural sunlight.

Make the space as comfy as possible and feel your energy become more relaxed and positive.

Bring in the outdoors

What has more positive energy than nature and the outdoors? Bring in some of that energy into your space with plants and flowers.

Plants are known to have an abundance of positive energy that can greatly improve your well being.

If you don’t have the time to take care of flowers and finicky plants, you can adorn your house with plants that are easy to take care of.

Cacti and succulents don’t need a lot of care and resources but still provide the natural feel. They can even survive without a lot of sunlight and in colder spaces.

Scent therapy

Our senses can greatly affect our mood. One easy way to alter our mood and the vibe of our house is by incorporating beautiful scents to our daily routine.

An easy way to do that is to diffuse essential oils. There are many essential oils to choose from, depending on the desired effect.

Citrusy scents are energizing, lavender can make us calm and prepare us for bedtime, and sage cleans up space from bad vibes.

You can also burn incense sticks or light a scented candle, but never leave them unsupervised.

Use calming colors

Using calming colors in your home can help create a more peaceful and relaxing atmosphere, which can in turn bring positive vibes. Calming colors are typically cool tones such as blues, greens, and grays, as well as neutrals such as white, beige, and cream. When you’re surrounded by soothing colors, your body is more likely to relax, which can help you feel more rested and rejuvenated.

They are believed to have a soothing effect on the mind and body, which can help reduce stress and anxiety. When you enter a room that is decorated in calming colors, it can help you feel more relaxed and calm.

By using calming colors in your home decor, you can create a sense of balance that can help you feel more centered and grounded.

Repair your home

If you have any broken furniture, if installations aren’t working or the outside of your house needs some love, all of this can greatly impact the good vibes of your home.

Before any decorating, you need to make sure your home is safe to live in. You may need to fix your roof, seal holes in your foundation, repair the blinds, etc.

Any small or big problem in the structure of your house should be taken care of. If you want to up the look of your house, a new coat of quality gutters painting can do the trick.

Hang up art

Art is a stimulus for the eyes and mind, and it’s a great way to create good vibes in your home. Research what type of art you like and what will fit your home.

It can be a beautiful painting of a sunset on your wall, a small bust on your coffee table, or an intricate sculpture.

Only place art in your space that you are drawn to and that gives you a good feeling. You can even try painting or sculpting yourself.

Positive energy in your home is important to help you maintain peace in every aspect of your life. Making any room positive and brighter can greatly affect your mood. Try out different things to enhance the vibe of your home.

The year 2020 will go down in the history books mainly because of the global COVID-19 pandemic that spread all over the world and greatly affected life negatively. In addition to affecting human health and even causing deaths, many businesses and jobs have been lost amid lockdowns, travel bans, and other strict regulations to curb the spread of coronavirus.

Indeed, many factories, manufacturing plants, schools, and other institutions had to close their doors beginning in March when the disease struck with full force for the first time in most places. The following months made things worse, but governments started to develop policies and discover methods to reduce the transmission of coronavirus while opening the economy at the same time.

Some of the new regulations require institutions to have extra space to enable social distancing as things start to get back to normal. This move has really promoted the use of modular and temporary structures as the best and most affordable building options.

Temporary Health Facilities

Even before people could think of the best strategy to get back to more typical operations, the surge of patients in hospitals and the need to separate isolation centers led to a high demand for modular and temporary structures for these centers.

Expansion of Factories and Organizations

Other requirements set by the governments in various countries require factories, businesses, and organizations to have enough room for social distancing by employees. While those with financial constraints have scaled down their workforces, others have preferred extending workspaces through the use of modular structures.

A benefit of using temporary structures is that they can be dismantled when the coronavirus pandemic is over and stored for later use. As such, the companies do not feel like the cost of expansion is too difficult. Additionally, they can use the modular structures in other places such as when they need more room because of growth or want to open new branches. Finally, these structures can also be rented out to other businesses or organizations when they have events, which turns out to be a source of revenue.
