Hand soaps are becoming more and more popular with new inventions like liquid hand soap and foaming hand soaps. The liquid hand soap was invented in the 70s since then took several decades to become popular for general use. Earlier it used to be the domain of high end establishments, restaurants and well to do families in the town. It took some time for the common public to understand the utilities and effectiveness of the liquid soap and now it is widely used and has become a household item in the whole world. Liquid soaps became more sought after due to their ease of use, economy, cleanliness, and sustainability.

Now you see the introduction of the hand foam soap, which is actually a different version of the liquid soap and is delivered in foam form instead of liquid. How they work actually? The foaming hand soap is an improvised version of liquid soap that comes out in foam when they leave the dispenser. Pressurized air inside the dispenser activated by the pump dispenses liquid into foam. Special dispensers are the requisites for proper foaming of hand soaps. Some of the dispensers are designed for refilling such as you see in public places and others without the facility of refilling. These are used mostly in homes.

A dispenser with pump consists of two chambers, one holds the soap and the other the air and when the pump is activated air is circulated into the dispensing unit to dispense foam. Pressurized units are generally automatic and they activate when you place your hands underneath the unit. The amount of soap that comes out of the unit is measured in quantity hence no wastage is experienced by users. These units use sealed packets or cartridges to refill and you just can’t add soap to them.

A surface sanitiser is effective in killing germs on kitchen surfaces, tables and other places where human involvement is frequent. These are gentle disinfectants that one can use without fear of damaging surfaces and skins. Surface sanitisers are largely beneficial to Food Manufacturing Units, Healthcare Facilities and Food Services as they prevent germs from surfaces getting into your food. Surface sanitisers are effective in preventing foodborne pathogenic organisms such as Listeria, Salmonella & E.coli, and campylobacter jejuni. These are produced under the strict norms of European standards EN 1276 and are absolutely safe to use in homes and business establishments such as mentioned above.
