Matt Hayas from Hydro Systems describes the role that chemical dispensers can play in increasing cleanliness to protect the health of your workforce and your bottom line.


Sneezing, coughing and sniffling are the unmistakeable signs that flu season has arrived again. Annually it may infect up to 20% of the population, depending on which viruses are circulating. When employees begin to call in sick, it can significantly impact your workplace.


Workplace items like desks, counters, sinks, etc. create an environment for harbouring and spreading infection. Flu can be passed from one employee to another one day before symptoms develop and up to seven days after. It’s vital to keep work environments as clean as possible.


From high-traffic reception areas to restrooms and open plan offices, appropriate chemical dispensing systems help clean and disinfect key areas and surfaces, while accurate chemical and water measurements eliminate harmful pathogens and create a healthier workplace.


Flu viruses can survive on hard surfaces for up to 24 hours, while cold viruses can also live for several hours. These spread quickly through cross-contamination. Some common cleaning chemicals and methods don’t kill these germs, so it’s important to clean and disinfect regularly with proven disinfectant products.


Installing a chemical dispenser prevents exposure to cleaning chemicals, enhancing cleaning effectiveness and productivity by providing accuracy and safety. This eliminates guesswork from traditional, unsafe ‘glug-glug’ methods where chemical is measured by hand. Accurate chemical and water dispensing makes cleaning and disinfecting easier, in turn encouraging employees to clean more frequently and to a higher standard.


Chemical dispensers fill spray bottles, mop buckets or autoscrubber tanks, aiding hygienic cleaning. Performing these tasks helps reduce the spread of germs, in addition to maintaining your reputation.


Dosing the right amount of chemical will help reduce chemical and water use, limit the amount of packaging waste created and helps support environmental stewardship, while increasing your bottom line. Ensuring cleaning is done right the first time will improve productivity and reduce labour costs.


When investing in a dispensing system, check out all


the features as well as tips for installation, training and maintenance, as this will help you adopt best practice. For example, a user-friendly interface simplifies training and encourages employees to conduct frequent cleaning. A compact dispensing system takes up a minimum of valuable wall space and should be installed in an area that is easy to access and where water is readily available.


During cold and flu season, it’s especially important for employees to clean and disinfect daily, so the dispensing system needs to function uninterrupted.


Ensure your system is well-suited for your business’ current and future needs. If you use numerous types of chemical, you’ll need a dispenser capable of managing these without carryover issues. A dispenser that uses technology to channel incoming water to the eductor ensures the right amount of chemical in the water stream. When using multi-purpose products, your dispenser will need to provide multiple dilutions to give accurate measurements.


Dispensing systems designed to eliminate dilution variance, including venturi-based units regulating water flow automatically, are ideal. Some systems offer predictive maintenance, remote monitoring and automated adjustments. Recording and capturing data on key performance indicators can help you understand how much product, water and energy is being used and track how often the system is being used to meet cleanliness goals.


Beyond direct medical costs, the most significant cost of infection is the indirect cost of lost productivity and absenteeism. In Europe, influenza accounts for approximately 10% of sickness absence from work.


Having dispensing systems in place that support health and wellness will help you better maintain cleanliness and improve productivity during the inevitable months of elevated flu and cold risk.
