AKRON, Ohio, Oct. 26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The ISSA/Interclean North America trade show was held October 20-23 in Las Vegas, Nev. GOJO Industries, the inventor of PURELL® Advanced Hand Sanitizer and the leading global producer and marketer of skin health and hygiene solutions for away-from-home settings, shared its latest hand hygiene technology innovations to an audience of 16,000 attendees. Interactive presentations provided information on the GOJO SMARTLINK™ Hand Hygiene Solutions, new dispenser technology and sustainability progress.
SMARTLINK™ Hand Hygiene Solutions
The GOJO® SMARTLINK™ Portfolio continues to advance electronic hand hygiene compliance technology with the next generation of software and reporting. GOJO also introduced a new mobile application designed to collect data and facilitate real-time reporting.
The current SMARTLINK™ Hand Hygiene Solutions demonstrated at ISSA included the following:
PURELL ES™ Everywhere System
The PURELL ES™ Everywhere System is one of the smallest, most versatile and appealing systems in the market. The system is designed to fit in places unable to accommodate traditional dispensers and where hand hygiene is critical. These critical hand hygiene areas are where customers and employees touch money, specifically cashier's stations, ATMs, bank teller windows and vending machines; in healthcare areas including nurses' stations, reception desks and elevator banks; and in food handling areas such as bulk food areas, buffets, and condiment and restaurant tables.
Hand Sanitizing Wipes Technology
GOJO featured its new SIMPUL™ Nozzle Technology at ISSA. The technology used for both PURELL® Hand Sanitizing Wipes and GOJO Wet Shop Towels provide one-wipe dispensing that virtually eliminates roping, providing one wipe with every pull. The new technology reduces waste and provides significant cost savings over other wipes. Additional benefits of the technology include a re-wetting design and consistent saturation with every towel.
GOJO® FMX-20™ High-Capacity Manual Dispensing System
GOJO shared the upgraded GOJO FMX-20 high-capacity system with attendees at ISSA. The new dispenser enhancements include advanced materials and construction making it the most robust high-capacity system on the market. This system has a larger sight window for quick refill monitoring and new fresh design based on trend colors and decoration.
GOJO Sustainability Progress
The GOJO Purpose—Saving Lives and Making Life Better through Well-Being Solutions—drives the company's commitment toward greater social, environmental and economic sustainability. It has created products, processes and programs that achieve results for all three domains.
Recently the company was recognized as a winner of the 2015 Champion of Change Award by Practice Greenhealth, the nation's leading healthcare community that empowers its members to increase their efficiencies and environmental stewardship while improving patient safety and care through tools, best practices and knowledge. GOJO was recognized for its dedication to advancing its social, environmental and economic sustainability goals. Examples of this include:
Another example includes a sustainable end-of-life program for old soap and sanitizer dispensers. Upon removal of the old dispenser, GOJO provides documentation to the customer that verifies the dispensers were recovered and recycled responsibly. To date more than 20,000 used dispensers have been recycled, which has resulted in diverting 10 tons of waste from landfills. In addition, for those facilities that inquire about re-use options, GOJO has shared its experience of transforming the used dispensers into birdhouses, piggy banks and more through fun craft projects.
