Hand hygiene compliance ensures optimal safety in production facilities

Hand hygiene compliance is crucial to satisfy the high sanitation standards demanded by laws and regulations. At Nieros, we are designing hygiene system solutions to enhance hand hygiene in different industries. Due to the contamination risk, proper cleanliness methods are paramount in meat processing and other food-related industries. Unfortunately, there is no standardised approach for managing and assessing sanitation. Without a standard definition of hand hygiene compliance, products can be endangered and human health as well.

Achieving proper hand hygiene, and how to maintain it?

Proper hand hygiene can be achieved by our hand hygiene stations, which are made of stainless steel and other high-quality built-in parts, ensuring the long life span of hand hygiene monitoring systems. Furthermore, sanitation is provided with a well-planned and managed hand-cleaning process designed by Nieros. The cleaning process starts with efficient soaping, followed by a thorough rinse under the running water. After drying hands, disinfection takes place, destroying germs and bacteria.

Hand hygiene compliance prevents cross-contamination in production areas

Hand hygiene compliance is something many industries rely upon. High standards and several law requirements are often hard to achieve, which is why many facilities implement verification procedures. Such procedures establish optimal cleanliness in the work environment, prevent cross-contamination and eliminate potential hazards. Developing and implementing effective hand hygiene results in better productivity and lower operation costs.

Identifying health hazards and establishing strategies to eliminate, prevent or reduce their occurrence is paramount, especially in an industry such as the food processing industry. A process established must be well-managed to direct the personnel to follow each step without skipping any. That can only happen by adding a sanitation station to the entry and exit of the sterilised work area. Proper hand hygiene stations usually entail washbasins, dryers, sanitisers and other accessories upon request. To guarantee optimal cleanliness solutions must be tailored-made to fit the establishment's needs.

Hand hygiene stations offer tailor-made and ergonomic designs fitting every production

Hand hygiene stations are out of high-quality stainless steel DIN 1.4404 (AISI 316Ti), DIN 1.4571 (AISI 316L) or different upon demand. They can be floor or wall-mounted, self-sanding and knee or sensor-operated. Their ergonomic design ensures correct sanitary practices. Combining multiple functions in one station guarantees a thorough cleaning and disinfection of the personnel before entering the work area.

Hand hygiene monitoring systems are cost-effective, admiringly efficient, quick to proceed and effortless to maintain. They are available in multiple models, including for establishments with limited space. To ensure the procedure goes to plan, are height adjustable and digitally operated. Due to their sanitary design, they are an asset to any business needing the highest cleanliness standards. Hand hygiene compliance is essential in such an environment as it minimises the contamination risk and prevents bacteria, germs, viruses and harmful pathogens from spreading.

Selecting the perfect hand hygiene monitoring system for your production plant

Hand hygiene stations must ensure effective throughput and reduce cross-contamination risk. Implementing safe sanitation practices is essential - and the most vital part of it is a station. A properly designed solution affects the success of the sanitation program and the productivity of the personnel. Poorly designed stations can lead to reduced productivity and more extensive operation costs.

There are a couple of factors to contemplate when selecting hand hygiene monitoring systems. The first one is the size of the facility, which will impact throughput. That is essentially the number of employees which can get through the sanitation in a certain amount of time. Larger production plants need a station with extensive throughput so productivity does not decrease. It is also beneficial to consider what efficient sanitation looks like in your establishment - is a station enough, or do you require a boot station as well?

Each facility needs different hand hygiene compliance, and that is where having modular equipment comes in is helpful. Such machinery can be (quickly and effortlessly) tailored to any production plant, depending on the flow and design of the space. The last thing to consider is maintenance. When it comes to production plants, easy maintenance is a necessity as it does not pause or impact the work process.
