Studies show that how we dry our hands matters, as bacteria spread more easily on wet skin than on dry skin.
Therefore, it is crucial that your employees’ hands are completely dry after washing them when working with fish, meat, or other types of food. This will reduce the risk of transferring bacteria to food and ensure that the disinfectant you use works properly.
When using paper to wipe your hands, you remove most bacteria. In fact, drying your hands with paper towels significantly reduces the spread of bacteria compared to using hand dryers. Hand dryers not only blow water off your hands but also disperse excess bacteria into the surrounding area, where they can remain airborne for up to 15 minutes. For this reason, paper can be a better choice for maintaining hygiene in your food production.*

With folded paper towels you can minimize the risk of contamination.
Both V-, Z-, and W-folded paper towels engage with the next sheet, meaning when your employees pull a paper towel from the dispenser, the next sheet is pulled free.
This way, no one touches the next piece of paper or the dispenser itself, minimizing the risk of spreading harmful micro-organisms in your food production.
