Create a Culture of Hand Hygiene

Creating a culture of hand hygiene starts with knowledge. With the right information to educate students and staff to wash and sanitize their hands, you can instill healthy habits and share the importance of well-being.

Practicing good hand hygiene is a great way to reduce the number of germs that can be spread in your school – and when students know the proper techniques, it can help reduce germ transmission throughout the facility, so they can focus on learning.

Tips for Getting the Cleanest Hands in Schools

Keeping hands clean is one of the best ways to reduce germs that can be spread in all settings, but particularly for schools.

Learn about the right tools, products, and guidance to promote effective and consistent hand hygiene practices among students and staff.

Surfaces: Break the Cycle of Germ Transmission

Germs travel from hands to surfaces - and back again - throughout the day. Desks, chairs, gym mats – every school has a wide variety of surfaces and hot spots where germs can hide, and your students come into contact with dozens of them every day. When germs are picked up by hands and transferred to another surface and vice-versa, the cycle of germ transmission continues.

Along with good hand hygiene, the right surface cleaning, sanitizing, and disinfecting protocols are key to help stop germ transmission and reduce germs in your school.

Get the Protection You Need - Now more than ever, a surface disinfectant spray that’s effective against a broad range of germs is essential. PURELL® Surface Sanitizer and Disinfectant sprays are proven to eliminate 99.9% of germs on surfaces – including human coronavirus in just 30 seconds* – with no harsh chemicals.

5 Tips for a Cleaner Classroom

As schools open for another year, concerns about germs in the classroom – and the products used to eliminate them – are higher than ever. Teachers, administrators, and janitorial staff across the country are working hard to provide a worry-free learning environment for their students.

Use these 5 helpful tips to keep your classroom cleaner this year.

Hot Spots: Find Germs Where They Hide

It’s easy to see which surfaces can hide the most germs. Door handles, electronics, and other high-touch surfaces are a good place to start when planning a surface program, but there are plenty of other areas that may go unnoticed.

Formulation Matters: See the PURELL® Brand Difference

Your students come from a variety of backgrounds, cultures, and experiences – and those differences are what makes each one unique. When it comes to providing a clean learning environment, eliminating germs is essential, but caring for sensitive skin, allergies, and other precautions is every bit as important.

The PURELL® brand is built on eliminating these trade-offs. Our hand hygiene and surface products are formulated to kill germs without the use of harsh chemicals, so you can focus on what really matters.

The Right Ingredients, The Perfect Formula

To accomplish the balance of skin health and efficacy, hand sanitizer ingredients are integral. Within our labs, formulation scientists carefully select quality ingredients to create our products – ensuring effectiveness without any compromises.

Not all hand sanitizers are the same. Formulation impacts both performance and user experience, two things that are vital for a trusted, quality hand sanitizer. Each ingredient must work in harmony with the others, ensuring the hand sanitizer not only kills germs, but also maintains or improves skin health.

The Right Product Placement to Maximize Your Well-Being Program

Having the right products is the first step. Putting then in the right place makes all the difference. Find out where to place hand soap and sanitizer dispensers, as well as surface products, to help fight germs in your school.
