At work employees come into contact with thousands of germs within workplace, from working on laptops to touching pens to using a shared kitchen. Luckily, there are several different methods of ensuring that proper hygiene is being practiced in the workplace. One of the best ways to ensure good hygiene is being kept in the office is making use of hygiene dispensers. We have dispensers for soap, paper towel, toilet paper, sanitary products and contraceptive products. Considering 80% of all infections are transmitted by hands, its vital commercial environments have hygiene dispensers available to staff, visitors and employees in every section of the building to limit cross contamination and infection.

Targeted areas
Dispensers can be put up in targeted areas for your employees to use, not only in the bathrooms. For example, provide hand sanitizer dispensers at entry and exit points to encourage all who come and go to utilize hygiene facilities. This can drastically reduce the number of illnesses that occur within your organization, reducing the spread of infection and improving overall health and hygiene. Once the dispensers have been placed, they are fixed and cannot be moved. This deters theft and vandalism on business property.
