When to use wipers?
Wipers should be a key component of your towel and tissue assortment. They’re a disposable cleaning tool that’s stronger than a paper towel, making them ideal for cleaning and disinfecting where cross-contamination is a concern. To properly disinfect, use a wiper in conjunction with an alcohol-based disinfectant that has an alcohol content of at least a 70%.
A high touch surfaces cleaning routine should include:
- Tables and seating
- Door knobs and handles
- Light switches
- Toilets
- Faucets
- Sinks
- Equipment panels
- Workstations / desks
- Chairs
- Computers
- Telephones
- Elevator buttons
When cleaning and disinfecting, use one side of a wiper per surface to avoid cross-contamination. Adding wipers to your assortment is essential to helping your customers develop a cleaning plan that maintains sanitized and hygienic surfaces.
