Could Be Putting Their Health At Risk
When Using Bulk Soap From Open Refillable Soap Dispensers
Recent studies conducted at the University of Arizona found that 23 to 25%1 of bulk soap dispensers may contain contaminated soap. Soap from contaminated bulk soap dispensers can put users at significant risk.
- 23 to 25% of samples taken from open refillable bulk soap reservoir dispensers were contaminated with unsafe levels of bacteria
- Coliforms, illness causing fecal-based organisms, were found in 16 to 22% of the bulk soap dispensers tested.
In contrast, no contamination was found in soap that was dispensed from systems using SANITARY SEALED™ refills.
