Sanitising to prevent swine flu
July 31st 2009 The threat of a global Swine Flu pandemic has been met with a surge in demand for soap and hand sanitising products, says Technical Concepts. The threat has highlighted the importance of following good basic hygiene habits, such as regular hand washing, to prevent the spread of germs.
Health organizations, such as the NHS, are publicly stressing the importance of preventative hygiene measures, citing the following key actions to prevent the spread of germs: Wash hands regularly with soap and water, clean surfaces regularly to get rid of germs, use tissues to cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze, place used tissues in a bin as soon as possible.
“The greatest interest has been in our hand sanitiser product, Hygienic Hand Rub, and our touch-free soap dispensers,” says global marketing manager Joanne Snowden. “Both offer enhanced hygiene protection beyond conventional soap products.”
Technical Concepts has introduced three new skin care products to its global foam soap range. The company’s foam soap formulations are dispensed through manually-operated or touch-free automated dispensers and provide a rich, dense lather that rinses clean with no stickiness.
‘Antibacterial Foam Soap’ kills 99.9% of harmful bacteria, and is enriched with moisturisers. The soap conforms to EN 1040, 1276 and 12054. ‘Hygienic Hand Rub’ is a non-alcohol hand sanitizer with moisturisers for effective hand hygiene without water. It also kills 99.9% of bacteria on the hands and provides residual bactericidal activity for up to 4 hours after application. ‘Free ‘n’ Clean Soap’ is for frequent hand washing. It contains extra mild ingredients and is enriched with moisturisers to soothe and smooth the skin.
