Safer Schools Start with Better Hand Hygiene

Keep Students Healthier and In Class with Consistent Hygiene Practices

From classrooms to cafeterias, schools need hygiene that works at scale. Automated systems ensure every student gets a fast, effective, and reliable clean.

End the “Honor System” and Achieve Unbeatable Hygiene Processes

Handwashing is the single most important step in preventing school-wide outbreaks. However, relying on children and staff to perform a manual handwash correctly is a consistent point of failure. Meritech provides a 12-second automated process that eliminates human error and reduces 99% of pathogens.

Key Locations for Maximum Infection Control in Educational Settings

Strategic placement of automated handwashing systems in high-traffic zones creates effective hygiene barriers, protecting the student body. Minimize the spread of seasonal illness and foodborne pathogens with a consistent, validated process before and after mealtimes or activity.
