Blocking bacterial growth
June 1st 2010 Restricting the spread of
bacterial contamination is an
essential part of the hygiene
regime of any washroom,
however, it often
easier said than
done.
Freshly washed
hands may still
harbour some
bacteria which can
be transferred to
the towel dispenser
and other parts of
the facility such as
taps and door handles.
Though the hygienic efficiency
of paper towels is not
disputed, keeping the
dispensers clean is an issue.
Dispensers such as those in
the Connect Leonardo range
are designed with a smooth,
rounded surface and can be
easily cleaned and maintained.
Connect has also looked at
other ways to try to improve
hygiene.
On the Leonardo Lever
Control dispensers, all levers
have been embedded with
Bio-Pruf a powerful microbe
growth inhibitor which lasts
the lifetime of the product. It
inhibits microbial growth
before it reaches problematic
levels.
In the most hygiene
sensitive areas, touchless
dispensing is the way forward.
The Leonardo range has three
dispensers, two are battery
operated and one dispenses
mechanically upon pulling of
the towel. All present the
towel flat. More articles from Connect Hygiene Products Ltd: |
