According to the World Health Organization, handwashing with soap and water can prevent 1 in 3 diarrheal illnesses and 1 in 5 respiratory infections. Handwashing can also help prevent the spread of other diseases, such as influenza, measles, and pneumonia.
World Hand Hygiene Day is a time to remind people to wash their hands often, especially before eating, after using the bathroom, and after blowing their nose or coughing. It is also a time to encourage healthcare workers to practice good hand hygiene.
Today is Global Handwashing Day. Organised by the Global Handwashing Partnership, its purpose is to raise awareness of the importance of hand hygiene to help prevent the spread of diseases around the world. Let’s Unite for Universal Handwashing.
If you run a commercial laundry or a nursing home or hotel that does its laundry on site, then the pressures to keep everything running and keep the levels of service to where you want them to be, whilst watching your utilities bills rise, feels like an unsurmountable challenge.
Crystalbrite, our range of highly effective laundry products, which feature on energy saving could be the answer.
Is hand hygiene still a priority as we move beyond the worst of the pandemic?
The pandemic changed our behaviour, with governments around the globe encouraging citizens to take steps to prevent the spread of the virus. Mask-wearing became mandatory, we were forced to socially distance or isolate, and take extra measures around hygiene and sanitisation to protect ourselves and the most vulnerable in our communities.
In order to keep your customers safe, disinfection products should meet the BS EN standards. Check labels for either BS EN 1276 or BS EN 13697 when shopping for products that prevent harmful bacteria from spreading onto food or contact surfaces.
