The Dirty Secret of the Kitchen and Cloakroom Hand Towel.

Kitchen and washroom hand towels are notorious for harbouring and breeding bacteria fuelled by their shared and frequent use, traces of decomposing food as well as the damp, temperature and humidity conditions that enable bacteria to multiply uncontrollably.

In fact, tests show that bacteria on a kitchen or washroom towel can multiply from one to 2/3 million in less than four hours – to 1 billion after one days normal use – to 10 billion two to three days later and 100 billion by the end of the week! Given that we wash hand towels once every week on average its no wonder that hygienic hand drying is of such crucial importance in the promotion of good food safety, health and personal hygiene.

Says Andrew Kirk MSc Consultant Environmental Microbiologist “ More than 18 million people in the UK risk transferring germs each day from bacteria laden hands to the face, foods, food preparation surfaces, cutlery, crockery, light switches, telephones, taps and other people as a result of not washing or drying their hands properly. And more often than not, it’s the hygienic weakness of the hand towel that’s at the root of the problem�
