PRODUCT FOCUS: EDUCATIONAL/STUDENT FACILITIES
SUSTAINABLE EDUCATION
Creating a clean, safe and welcoming environment is part of making a good first impression in student facilities, says Kimberly-Clark Professional, as it looks at ways to achieve this.
Students make a careful and considered choice when selecting a location for their college and university education and there are many establishments all competing to be that first choice.
Keeping the university or college environment clean at all times requires trusted and efficient wiping products to elevate the standard of clean throughout classrooms, residential and public areas - delivering a clean and safe environment to learn.
Washroom facilities shouldn’t be overlooked in delivering an uplifting and hygienic experience to attract and retain students and staff. Choosing systems that support good hygiene and deliver efficiency is a must for busy washrooms with high traffic in university or college buildings. But it’s also key to ensure washroom and wiping products are responsibly sourced to meet ever more important sustainability goals.
Paper consumables are a big part of providing fit-for-purpose washroom facilities and paper is used for very good reason. Paper towels are the most hygienic option for hand drying. The rubbing process of paper towels physically removes bacteria along with moisture, and paper towels reduce bacteria on fingers by up to 76%.

paper consumables. This means several things: choosing a manufacturer with responsible sourcing of raw materials; giving consideration for minimising deliveries and transportation of paper products; selecting products that are designed for controlled usage so that just the right amount of product is used without waste; and, forward-thinking about the recycling of products.
Education establishments across the UK have a need to meet sustainability goals and Kimberly-Clark Professional provides a range of washroom and wiping products that can help achieve those goals.
Rolled hand towel is leading the way as the paper hand towel format that allows for high capacity, efficient hand drying in busy environments – helping to achieve sustainability targets. The controlled, single sheet dispensing means fewer sheets are used and less waste. The sheets are also presented open and flat which ensures efficient use of each towel – again meaning less paper waste.
Compression technology used in the Scott Control Rolled Hand Towel gives an 18% reduction in storage and transportation meaning less deliveries required. They are also produced with Airflex Technology which uses 17% less pulp fibre in production and yet provides a paper towel with superior absorbency and softness. The Scott
