Best Sanitizers, Inc. Asks Food Industry Professionals: Is Your E2 Hand Soap as Good as It Could Be?
Best Sanitizers, Inc., manufacturer of high-quality hand soaps, hand sanitizers, and surface sanitizers, is asking food processors and food handlers to compare the E2 soap they're currently using in their facilities to Best Sanitizers' Alpet® Q E2 Sanitizing Foam Soap.
NEVADA CITY, Calif., Sept. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- 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 E2 soap they're currently using to Best Sanitizers' Alpet® Q E2 Sanitizing Foam Soap. An E2 rating means the hand soap combines washing and sanitizing in one application followed by a rinse. When choosing a hand soap for a food processing environment, it is best to choose a fragrance and dye-free, E2 rated soap. E2 rated hand soaps are preferred because they can provide better protection against cross-contamination from hands than non-E2 rated hand soaps. If you aren't already using an E2 rated hand soap in your facility, that is your first step to choosing a new, quality hand soap.
Six key criteria are identified to evaluate the effectiveness of an E2 rated hand soap. Best Sanitizers' Alpet® Q E2 Sanitizing Foam Soap meet all six criteria. How does the E2 soap you're using compare?
The six key evaluation criteria are:
1. Formula: Is your current E2 hand soap fragrance and dye-free, pH balanced to skin (pH 5.5), and formulated with emollients to keep hands soft and healthy even with repeated use?
2. Testing: Has your current E2 hand soap been in vitro time-kill tested on 30 challenging organisms common to the food processing industry?
3. Value: Does your current E2 hand soap offer competitive pricing and a solid value with 3,150 1.2 mL applications per gallon?
4. Manufacturing: Are you using an E2 hand soap manufactured in a cGMP, FDA and EPA/FIFRA compliant facility?
5. NSF Certified: Is your current hand soap 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 washing and sanitizing compound (E2) for use in and around food processing areas.
6. Configurations and Dispensing Options: Does your current E2 hand soap come in a variety of configurations (small pump bottles, 1250mL cartridges, gallons, drums, and totes) and is it supported by a wide assortment of dispensing options to ensure that your specific requirements are met?
"We want food industry professionals to know what to look for when evaluating and selecting the best E2 hand soap 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."
