Encourage hygienic practices in the workplace by providing easy access to PURELL® foaming hand sanitizers. Hand sanitizers are convenient alternatives to handwashing with soap. They do not require water or drying with paper towels and are more effective at preventing cross-contamination. This brand makes fast-acting foam sanitizers capable of eliminating 99.99 percent of the most common disease-causing germs. Staples® carries a wide selection of cleaning supplies and PURELL foaming hand sanitizers to suit your needs.
Consider Dispenser Model When Shopping for PURELL Foaming Hand Sanitizers
PURELL offers its hand sanitizer formulations in a pump and refills bottles. Pump bottle sanitizers are self-contained units that can also dispense foaming liquids. Refill bottles are for PURELL hand sanitizer dispensers. These wall-mounted manual and automatic dispensers hold specially designed plastic bottles with tightly sealed mouths and dispensing valves. Compared to pump bottles, refills use thinner transparent plastic. In addition to using less material, refill bottles are also made of recyclable plastics. PURELL makes different models of sanitizer dispensers and each of them is compatible with select refill bottles. The brand mostly offers its sanitizer refills in two volumes: 700ml and 1200ml.
Enjoy the Superior Protection of PURELL Foaming Hand Sanitizers
PURELL's foam hand sanitizers are popular in hospitals because they outperform most of the competition at killing germs. However, alcohol-based sanitizers tend to cause skin dryness and irritation. To prevent such outcomes, this brand formulates its hand sanitizers with moisturizers. Its skin-nourishing formulas help maintain skin health while its ultra-nourishing sanitizers can improve dry skin conditions. These sanitizers are gentler on the skin than liquid soaps and do not remove the top layers of the skin like moisturizer-free hand sanitizers do.
Users with sensitive skin types should choose fragrance and dye-free sanitizers. These are less likely to irritate the skin when rubbing the foaming solution against the back of the hand. PURELL foam hand sanitizers are also safe for kids. They contain bitter ingredients that discourage young children from ingesting the foaming liquids. The brand also does not use toxic ingredients in its products. PURELL sanitizers are free of bisphenol A and triclosan.
Are Alcohol-Free PURELL Foaming Hand Sanitizers Effective?
Yes. Alcohol-free hand sanitizers are best for those that are highly sensitive to the drying effect of ethyl alcohol. These formulations replace alcohol with benzalkonium chloride (BAK). To be effective, regular sanitizer liquids must contain a minimum of 62 percent alcohol. An alcohol-free sanitizer of similar effectiveness only needs to contain 0.1 percent BAK.
What Is the Difference Between PURELL Foaming Hand Sanitizers and Gel Sanitizers?
A gel sanitizer is a thicker solution that slides around easily on the hand. The foaming action of a foam sanitizer makes it preferred by those used to washing hands with soap and water. Both types of sanitizers have their merits and drawbacks but offer comparable effectiveness.
Do PURELL Foaming Hand Sanitizers Carry Green Certifications?
Some of them do. PURELL Green Certified sanitizers carry EcoLogo® marks and meet the requirements for the USDA BioPreferred program. Both certifications guarantee that these hand sanitizers use environmentally friendly ingredients and source packaging materials from sustainable and renewable resources like bioplastics.
