CLEANING
“Exposed wiper rolls left on surfaces can be contaminated and touched by multiple users up to 70 times before they are finished. This creates major concerns in offices and large public buildings where some 80% of illnesses are transmitted on our hands.
“Uncontrolled dispensing can create a lot of waste as individual users often unwind up to 2.5 metres at a time. In addition, loose blue rolls frequently become damaged from spills and need to be thrown away, creating even more wastage. We have developed two solutions which address these issues and deliver improved wiping solutions: the WypAll Reach Centrefeed System; and the WypAll Wettask Wiper Dispenser System.”
Kimberly-Clark Professional’s WypAll Reach Centrefeed System provides a versatile light-wiping solution for all types of cleaning tasks, including mopping up a spillage, cleaning windows and wiping handrails. The system has been designed to be portable and convenient, and to reduce consumption and waste by over 20% compared to traditional blue rolls improving both operational and cost efficiencies for FMs.
“The WypAll Reach Centrefeed System is convenient, portable and always at hand,” said Borrini. “It has been designed to look good and perform to the highest standards improving hygiene, and reducing paper usage and waste – so therefore saving money. Sustainability is high on the agenda for facilities managers, and the reduction of consumption and paper waste from the dispenser also means lower shipping costs, less trucks on the road and reduced waste disposal costs – all helping facilities managers to meet their sustainability KPIs.”
Managing hygiene and budgets “As we adapt to a new normal, balancing hygiene and efficiencies is top of an FM’s agenda,” said Borrini. “The demand on FMs to deliver hygiene that eliminates contamination across frequently used surfaces without compromising budget control is at an all-time high. They have to make the right choices that manage hygiene and budgets equally.”
Launched as part of the Kimberly-Clark Professional 360 Hygiene & Protection programme, the WypAll Wettask dispenser is a hygienic option for any facility. It is designed for maximum control of both hygiene and cost efficiencies, and is ideal for the disinfection of frequently touched surfaces because it gives users control.

With single-sheet dispensing, users only touch the sheet they use, from a fully enclosed system. Designed to reduce waste and costs, the portable, high-capacity system has 80% more sheets than the existing format requiring fewer refills. The bucket is completely reusable, reducing plastic waste compared to pre-saturated wipes. Furthermore, WypAll Wettask costs on average 60% less than pre-saturated wipes.
The system offers flexibility to cleaning teams for different challenges. Whether disinfecting a surface to kill germs and reduce cross-contamination risks, or cleaning a surface to remove dirt, grime or impurities. Before starting a cleaning task, the dry roll of wipes should be placed into the system and the bucket should be filled with the chosen solvent, chemical or detergent. Colour-coded tape is included in the system enabling users to clearly distinguish between different disinfectants or solutions for specific tasks.
The base sheet is textured for multi- surface disinfection and to reduce
chemical evaporation meaning it does not dry
out thereby lowering usage and costs. With 250 sheets a roll for
longer refill intervals, the Wettask is suited to hygiene sensitive environments in all scenarios. Hand-sized sheets and controlled single sheet dispensing make the system both
easy to use and efficient.
“Right now, if a facility is open, then they are wiping more than ever before to keep people safe,” concluded Borrini. “Regular hygiene surface disinfecting is necessary across all sectors for business survival and for the safety of everyone as we begin to get back to our normal lives. Companies are having to increase their spend on wipes when budgets are under increasing pressure. Therefore, a professional solution that gives customers, employees and guests a safe feeling that they are cared for and meet financial and sustainable targets is a welcome and critical tool.”
