For many companies across the business world it is of upmost importance to create a good impression that extends to the everyday working environment, this should also extend to the sometimes forgotten, washroom area. A common source of malodours can be found in the washroom, particularly, the gent’s urinals. Foul smells can have a negative impact on your organisation and the welfare and moral of your workforce. Up to five feet of the surrounding area of the urinal can be affected by urine splatter and splashback, which is why urinals present a common breeding ground for bacteria and bad odours. Urine droplets containing pathogens may contribute to the spread of sickness in the workplace. AHS Urinal screens have a multitude of beneficial qualities; releasing billions of optimised bacteria that sterilise and eliminate odours for a fresher environment. Long protrusions eradicate splashback, reducing the spread of harmful bacteria at the shared standing area. As the screen sits over the opening, it stops debris such as hair and chewing gum falling through which can contribute to blockages. Best of all, the urinal screen gives your washroom a splash of colour with a continuous fragrance.

If you have a particular room in your workplace that has an offensive stench and no amount of cleaning is helping, why not try AirSteril? It’s an odour control innovation that uses the latest technology to eradicate bad odours and replaces it with a fresh, mountain air smell. It also kills bacteria on the surface and in the air, making your workplace hygienic and smell-free. Cleaning can be frustrating as you are unable to treat the root cause of a problem area – once the area is re-used, bacteria returns and grows at a rapid rate, bringing the smells back until the next cleaning session, creating a vicious circle. Smells Explained Those offensive odours that hit you are created by bacteria and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) found in the air. In urinals for example, that unmistakable odour is due to the build-up of scale and uric salts clogging pipes which provides a breeding ground for bacteria. Consequently, the smell and germs only multiply. These airborne micro-organisms compromise hygiene standards and pose significant hygiene and reputational risks to all businesses. There are specialised AirSteril units available that have been created for different industries and to suit different demands such as, healthcare environments, washrooms and commercial. There are portable AirSteril units available too which can be moved from room to room as required, for example this is effective if someone has smoked in a hotel room. Simply place the AirSteril in the room and it will get to work purifying the air within an hour, leaving you to carry on with your normal cleaning routine. This is beneficial for businesses as...
