Helping your customers stay healthy during this COVID-19 time and after!

How many of us have thought to wash our hands after blowing our nose, coughing or sneezing especially in a public place?  It’s sometimes inconvenient and time-consuming when you’re in a rush or under time commitments. At the same time, avoiding touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands is also a chore. If you’re like me, you have to repeatedly remind yourself. Filled hand soap containers in public places are a constant reminder not only to people like me to wash their hands but to your customers as well. The more you wash your hands the less likely...

One way to encourage non-touch hand washing is with an ESD-250 series sensor-and battery-operated liquid soap dispenser by Sloan.  The ESD-250 is a modular one-piece construction and easily mounted to a deck surface.

Price Gouging on Hand Soap

GOOD HANDWASHING HABITS AND WHY IT MATTERS

Posted by on

How many times while washing our hands in public restrooms have we seen in the mirror, users leaving without washing? Recently, I was using the public restroom at a fast food restaurant and witnessed a uniformed employee leaving the stall without washing. I reported it to the manager and a few weeks later, I saw signs “Employees Must Wash Their Hands.” Wouldn’t it be great if the sign read “All Users Must Wash Their Hands?” as a habit-building reminder.
