After discussions, Hypo Solutions supplied 750ml Hypo protect complete trigger sprays, as well as 500ml HOCl (alcohol) free hand gel. An electrostatic fogging machine was also deployed with Hypo Protect Complete 5 litre containers for top-up.
The fogger produces a dry mist to fog the surrounding area, any surface that is ‘fogged’ by the dry mist will be completely sanitised and any airborne pathogens would also be taken care of.
The fogger was deployed at the entrance to the testing hall as the pupils entered. The pupils headed into one of 4 testing booths that were sanitised in between each student with the hypochlorous solution. The lateral flow tests were handed to the results desk for inspection. The result desk technicians were behind screens also sanitised with the alcohol-free natural solution.
The new non-alcoholic hand gel has been received very well and will be introduced to the 60 dispensers outside each classroom when current supplies are exhausted.
Some parents, teachers, and pupils have expressed concern that young people are constantly applying a product that is 70% plus alcohol based to their skin and therefore the Hypo products are an ideal healthy replacement.
Mrs. Dakin said that all products had been very well received. The fogging machine caused a great deal of interest on testing days, especially with the pupils. We have now introduced the hand gel to our lunchtime routine and will roll out to the classroom dispensers when current supplies run low. Pupils commented on the fact they liked the new product as it smelt like holidays and the sea! Pupils are so interested in the product that the whole manufacturing process was discussed in science lessons earlier this week.
