Hand Sanitizer

Hand Sanitizer is essential for maintaining high hygiene standards in busy commercial kitchens, bars, cafes and food production areas. This range covers pocket-sized gels, bulk refill packs and dispenser-compatible sanitising solutions designed for professional use. Ideal for entrances, wash stations and food prep zones, these products help reduce cross-contamination and support HACCP compliance. Fast-acting, quick-drying formulas keep staff and customers protected without slowing down service.

• Alcohol and alcohol-free hand sanitizers suitable for food service and healthcare-sensitive environments.
• Convenient 500ml bottles for staff use at counters, prep benches and service areas.
• High-capacity 800ml and larger refills designed for wall-mounted and manual dispensers in high-traffic locations.
• Professional-grade disinfectant liquids for broader hygiene routines alongside hand sanitizing.
• Skin-friendly formulations with moisturisers to minimise dryness from frequent hand cleaning.
• Trusted commercial brands selected for reliability, consistent dosing and proven antimicrobial performance.

How to choose the right Hand Sanitizer

• Decide between alcohol-based and alcohol-free formulas depending on your food safety policy and staff sensitivities.
• Match pack size to usage levels, choosing bulk refills for busy entrances and smaller bottles for individual workstations.
• Check compatibility with your existing wall-mounted or manual dispensers to avoid wastage and downtime.
• Look for quick-drying, non-sticky products to keep service flowing smoothly in kitchens and front-of-house areas.
• Consider skin-friendly options with added moisturisers where staff must sanitise hands very frequently.
• Review certification and antimicrobial claims to ensure compliance with your hygiene and HACCP requirements.

Care and maintenance

• Store hand sanitizer in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain effectiveness and shelf life.
• Regularly clean and check dispensers for blockages, leaks or damage to ensure consistent dosing.
• Top up refills before they run out, especially in peak service times, to maintain continuous access for staff and customers.
• Wipe external dispenser surfaces daily with approved cleaning agents to prevent residue build-up and contamination.
• Train staff on correct application, including contact time and coverage, for reliable hygiene results.
• Rotate stock using a first-in, first-out system and monitor expiry dates on all sanitizing products.
