A whole new range of UV Based Infection Control and Prevention Tools for Healthcare Professionals.

Its a Simple Solution to a Simple Problem

It may not be rocket science but the simple every-day task of washing hands leaves a lot to be desired.  Yet without the correct instruction (with some form of visual re-enforcement) it is unlikely that an un-trained individual or child, will actually achieve truly clean hands after washing!

For those who work in the Medical professions or food preparation and handling,  unclean, un-hygienic hands can lead to customer / patient infections, with potentially serious health implications for the customer / patient and possibly legal repercussions for the employer!

Wash & Glow is a memorable and  fun way of demonstrating just how easily bacteria and contaminants are transferred and the correct way to ensure hands are washed and properly cleaned. 

Each kit contains the essential components for effective Infection Control Hygiene demonstration and training.

Wash & Glow Hygiene Inspection Kit

Hand washing only addresses part of the larger Hygiene problem. Ensuring a clean working environment is essential to maintaining acceptable hygiene levels.

Using UV GERM products to create a series of harmless invisible 'Check Zones'. Cleaners can be easily and frequently tested, to see if they are as effective and diligent as you would expect. 

Wash & Glow Hygiene Inspection Kit

 

Starglow UV-R Technology at Work

Inside each UV GERM product is the magic active ingredient; Invisible Starglow UV-Revealing Particles; amazing microscopic germ-like dots which under normal lighting conditions are  invisible to the eye and are completely safe and non-toxic .

However when exposed to a UV Blacklight; they will fluoresce brightly and clearly, to indicate the scope of 'contamination' that has occurred, and to reveal the potential bacteria that remains after washing (even on the towel!)

Why Starglow UV GERM Technology?

Unlike some other producers of Hand Washing training materials, Glowtec only use High-Performing Starglow UV Revealing Particles and not UV Brighteners / Whiteners similar to those used in  washing powders.

Unlike UV Whiteners which give off a 'Bluey white' glow under UV Light. Starglow UV-R particles glow Bright Green, for a more accurate simulation experience and one which provides a far more distinctive and pleasing effect under Blacklight.
