The Great Hand Sanitizer Challenge Encourages Food Processors and Food Handlers to Evaluate Their Current Hand Sanitizer.

We want food industry professionals to know what to look for when evaluating and selecting the best E3 rated hand sanitizer for their hand hygiene program.

Best Sanitizers, Inc., a leader in hand hygiene and sanitation products for the food processing industry, is asking industry professionals to conduct a side-by side comparison of the E3 rated hand sanitizer they’re currently using to Best Sanitizers’ Alpet® E3 Plus Hand Sanitizer Spray. Dubbed The Great Hand Sanitizer Challenge, this challenge identifies five key criteria that will help industry professionals evaluate the effectiveness of their current hand sanitizer. Food industry professionals can request a free trial sample of Alpet E3 Plus Hand Sanitizer Spray to conduct their own side-by-side comparison by calling 888-225-3267 or visiting the Best Sanitizers website. If you aren’t already using an E3 rated hand sanitizer in your facility, that is your first step to choosing a new, quality hand sanitizer.

The five key evaluation criteria are:

1.    Efficacy: Is your current hand sanitizer proven 99.9999% (LOG6) effective in killing 26 pathogens critical to food processors?

2.    Delivery Method: Is your current hand sanitizer delivered as an atomized spray to saturate fingernails, cuticles, cracks and crevices of the hands and fingers where pathogens hide?

3.    Hand Health: Is your current hand sanitizer formulated with moisturizers to keep hands soft and healthy?

4.    Manufacturing: Is your current hand sanitizer manufactured in a cGMP, FDA and EPA/FIFRA compliant facility?

5.    NSF Certified: Is your current hand sanitizer NSF certified? The NSF Nonfood Compound Registration Program is a continuation of the USDA product approval and listing program, which is based on meeting regulatory requirements including

FDA 21 CFR for appropriate use, ingredient, and labeling review. An NSF certification means the product is acceptable for use as a hand sanitizing compound (E3) for use in and around food processing areas.

“We want food industry professionals to know what to look for when evaluating and selecting the best E3 rated hand sanitizer for their hand hygiene program,” states April Zeman-Lowe, Best Sanitizers’ Director of Sales – Food and Beverage Division. “It’s one less thing the food processor needs to worry about.”
