Does it come as a shock to you that the people making your food, the people working in healthcare, all use disinfectants on a regular basis? From the article also: toothpaste, mouthwash, eye drops.

Yes? I'd expect to mostly see them use soap.

Food safe standards. If you get inspected they will test the concentration, in PPM, of your cleaning product. You can either use a chlorine bleach or quaternary ammonium.

Quats are almost exclusively used by industries like food and health care.

And the household. I use quats for laundry, too.

I've always used quats over bleach since they don't destroy your clothing.

I mostly use alcohol these days as it is safe and doesn't damage most things. It isn't suitable for everything, but it works for most stuff.
