Automated Hygiene Equipment provides consistent pathogen removal, every time

Hands in EVOOne of the challenges during a hygiene audit is the potential for human error, which can lead to inconsistent results and jeopardize the overall safety and compliance of a facility. Human error can manifest in various ways, such as improper handwashing techniques, insufficient scrubbing time, or even missing critical areas of the hands. While handwashing is a crucial practice for maintaining hygiene, it depends entirely on human execution, which is inherently variable. Even with thorough training and repeated practice, a minor mistake, such as not using enough soap or rinsing inadequately, can cause an audit to fail. This is where Meritech's Automated Hygiene Equipment becomes a vital enhancement to any hygiene protocol. These advanced systems are designed to deliver a consistently validated hand wash to every user, ensuring that each wash meets the highest standards of cleanliness, compliance, and safety.
