Hands up for hygiene

Businesses can encourage good hand hygiene practice by providing easy-to-understand awareness materials such as posters, stickers for use in washrooms - on floors, mirrors and doors. With modern day substrates, such as removable wall vinyls, stickers can be used and replaced without leaving any residue on walls, floors or mirrors.

Phil Spark, marketing director at Deb advises: "Businesses can work with their washroom services suppliers to create a communications campaign to educate staff and customers alike as to why they should keep their hands clean. Free downloadable posters are readily available from established suppliers to help promote good hand hygiene practices."
