Trending now
Keeping your hands clean is essential to prevent the spread of disease-causing contaminants. Germs, bacteria and viruses linger on surfaces longer than many people realize. When these contaminants end up on your hands, there’s great potential you’ll spread them to your face or bring them into your home where they can be transmitted to other people. Keep hand sanitizer in your home or with you on the go to ensure you always have a hand-sanitizing option nearby.
Why Is Hand Sanitizer Important to Use?
Buying hand sanitizer is important for keeping yourself and others healthy, safe and clean. Using hand sanitizer is an effective alternative to hand washing when soap and water aren’t available. Hand sanitizer is said to kill up to 99.99% of germs, making it as effective as it is convenient. Shop for travel sized hand sanitizers which are small enough to keep in your purse, travel bag or possibly even your pocket, so you never run out when outside the home. You can also keep a bottle in your desk drawer, locker or vehicle to help ensure you never find yourself without a hand-cleaning option.
Which Hand Sanitizer Should You Buy?
There are many options available when shopping for hand sanitizer, so you can choose the hand sanitizer that best matches your personal needs and preferences.
Hand Sanitizer Dispenser or Smaller Bottles?
Staples provides hand sanitizer bottles that are very large for commercial use as well as mini on-the-go bottles. Consider how and where you most often use hand sanitizer and what the economic impact will be for each. You may find that smaller bottles are all you need, but if you need a lot of sanitizer for use by many people, opt for hand sanitizer dispensers.
Gel Hand Sanitizer, Foam Hand Sanitizer or Wipes?
There are several options when it comes to the formula of your hand sanitizer. A gel hand sanitizer is the most common type of hand sanitizer available and has a thiner consistency. This option is easy to spread thoroughly over hands and dispenses out quickly. Foaming hand sanitizers are easier to control and dry in a short amount of time. Hand sanitizer wipes are convenient because you can keep them in your bag without worrying about leaks and can easily wipe down surfaces as well as your hands. Liquid hand sanitizer can be faster acting and has a watery consistency. Any type of hand sanitizer is a great option to stay healthy when soap and water aren’t available, so choose a hand sanitizer option based on your lifestyle and personal preferences.
What Scent Do You Prefer in a Hand Sanitizer?
Staples carries a variety of scent options for hand sanitizers. Popular choices include scents that smell clean, fruity or natural. You can also opt for hand sanitizer that is unscented. Scented versus unscented has no impact on sanitizer effectiveness. Those with sensitive noses or who are in enclosed spaces with others may want to opt for hand sanitizer with no scent.
How Can Hand Sanitizer Be Used?
Hand sanitizer can be used in a variety of situations. People often keep hand sanitizer bottles in their bag or pocket to be able to quickly kill germs on the go. Hand sanitizer is good to use before dining in a restaurant or after spending time in a crowded place. It’s also essential for when you’re in a commercial bathroom that has run out of soap. Hand sanitizer can also be used to keep common areas clean or to protect a large number of people. For example, large hand sanitizer bottles can be placed in high-traffic areas such as classrooms, guest bathrooms, waiting rooms and other communal areas for quick and convenient hand cleaning.
