Taking care of hands in industrial areas
April 1st 2009 Metsä Tissue, says that for
industrial medical staff, poor
hand hygiene and hand care can
increase the risk of
hand/skin problems;
dermatitis, eczema,
skinning, and nailbed
infections, or, the
transmittance of
infections within the
company. A solution
is needed as in some
situations workers sometimes
need to wash their hands up to
80 times a day.
Metsä Tissue, under its Katrin
hygiene brand, has an industrial
hand cleaning and care products
system with dispensers using
sachets. Each dispenser – split
between cream and washing
paste – measures the exact
number of milligrams required, so
there is no waste. Improvements
in wipers and hand towels round
off the system.
Before starting work
'Katrin Handcream
Protect' coats the hand
with a protective film
which helps prevent
infections being
absorbed into the skin.
Grip is enhanced, so
that greasy or damp tools do not
slip out of the hand. Powerful
hand cleaning gel 'Katrin
Handwash Pro Extra' reliably rids
the hands of strong dirt like tar,
glue and paint. For lighter stains
like oil, diesel or rust,'Katrin
Handwash Pro' should be used. More articles from Metsa Tissue Ltd: |
