Why this hand soap earns its place
This sealed pouch is the larger 1.3-litre capacity of Jantex's antibacterial foam soap, designed to remove the contamination risk that comes with topping up an open bulk-fill cassette.
It's fast-acting and broad-spectrum, killing 99.99% of common germs and disinfecting hands in 30 seconds, and it's been tested and proven bactericidal, virucidal and yeasticidal for that level of protection.
The formula is fragrance-free and non-tainting, suiting food environments, and it's still enriched with moisturising ingredients to help prevent dryness. It's for external use only and should be kept out of reach of children.
COSHH: six habits of safe chemical use
Control of Substances Hazardous to Health — the routine every commercial kitchen and cleaning cupboard is expected to run.
SDS
Read the label and the manufacturer’s safety data sheet — the pictograms tell you what you are holding.
Who could be harmed, and how badly? Judge likelihood against severity before anyone opens the cap.
Eliminate or substitute first, engineer and organise next — PPE is the last line, never the first.
Keep the controls working: check ventilation, dosing equipment and storage stay as they should be.
Everyone who uses it knows the hazards, the correct dilution and the PPE — before the first shift, not after.
Products and processes change. Reassess when they do, and keep the record that proves it.
