are High Frequency Touch Points – objects such as door handles, sink fixtures, lift buttons, chair arms, and stair rails that are touched by many throughout the day and need frequent cleaning and disinfection to help break the chain in germ transmission.
The next step is implementing cleaning and disinfecting protocols and introducing the correct hand hygiene and surface wiping solutions. Finally, Kimberly-Clark Professional promotes hygienic workplace practices by providing communication tools to help create awareness, which is a vital and important part of making people feel safe.
Kimberly-Clark Professional offers a free no obligation Virtual Hygiene Walk – bookable through the microsite – to review a facility and provide expert guidance on cleaning and hygiene protocols, recommending the right product solutions to tackle key hygiene hotspots. We have produced an in-depth guide for the healthcare industry to show the most appropriate tools, products and solutions.
System design
Enclosed, hygienic washroom systems are essential to efficient contamination control, and having washroom efficiencies in a busy healthcare environment is important in delivering against tight budgets. The Scott Control range from Kimberly-Clark Professional is specifically designed to answer all these needs and more, for optimum hygiene in healthcare washrooms.
The Scott Control Rolled Hand Towel System is designed for frequent use in hygiene critical environments, maintaining good hand hygiene without irritating skin. Towels are softer and kinder to hands, ideal for repeated hand drying while helping to increase staff hand hygiene compliance. With a high capacity, easy refill dispenser and a stub roll feature for a continuous rolled towel supply, staff can have confidence in their hand hygiene needs.
New from Scott Control is a foam hand sanitiser, designed for frequent use and ease of application. The dye and fragrance-free sanitiser minimises residual build up on the skin whilst killing up to 99.99% of microorganisms. It’s designed to dispense efficiently to fully cover the hands while preventing excessive product use, while also minimising dangerous slip hazards in washrooms for staff, patients and visitors.
Also new is the Scott Control Mini Twin Centrefeed Toilet Tissue system, designed to deliver maximum hygiene, efficiency and sustainability in washrooms. The twin format is the most hygienic dispenser in the marketplace according to the results of a swab test study conducted by MGS Laboratories in Jan 2017, and is the highest capacity centrefeed toilet tissue on the market.
The one wipe clean dispenser is designed with no shut lines or key holes for optimum hygiene, and is fully enclosed, so the protected twin rolls enable touchless dispensing, avoiding cross-contamination as users only touch the sheet to be used. Controlled single sheet dispensing reduces usage of washroom essentials for exceptional cost in use and maximum efficiency.

A never-run-out design delivers 100% tissue availability and reduces the need of refills for improved efficiency of staff and provides guaranteed dispensing reliability – every time (versus equivalent competitor systems, results of Hall Test research by Sapio Research Agency, Jan 2017). Fewer refills means less chance for cross-contamination, keeping staff, patients and visitors safe, and confident that facilities are well stocked and managed for their comfort and convenience.
Richard Millard, EMEA Senior Category Manager, Bath Tissue, at Kimberly-Clark Professional, said: “The Scott Control range offers a complete washroom solution, delivering increased hygiene without compromising on washroom efficiency or sustainability. As with all our washroom systems, the Scott Control Twin Centrefeed Toilet Tissue system delivers unmatched market-leading hygiene and efficiencies, so our customers can provide facilities that support the safety, health and wellbeing of staff and visitors during these challenging times now and uncertain ones ahead.”
Neznal concluded: “Reassuring staff, patients and visitors with visible hygiene actions has never been more important for the healthcare sector. Kimberly-Clark Professional is the expert in workplace hygiene and has over 50 years’ experience in providing washroom solutions in healthcare.
“We understand the challenges of compliance, contamination and cost control and with the 360 hygiene and protection programme we are championing the need for tools that make washroom hygiene centre-stage.”
