As an educational institution, the health and well-being of your staff and students should be a top priority. Students attend school for eight to ten months a year in North America, so it’s important to have a high standard of hygienic measures in place to prevent people from getting ill or spreading harmful germs and bacteria. Illnesses and absenteeism can have an effect on the results and performance of both staff and students. There are a number of benefits for your school, nursery, college or university when you implement effective hygiene measures, including:
Let us professionally take care of your hygiene services, so you can focus on protecting staff and students while providing a first-class education. Citron Hygiene is your reliable hygiene solutions partner in Canada and US, offering the latest technology and a wide range of services to meet the needs of educational facilities.
Studies have shown that nearly 1 in 4 students have struggled to afford menstrual hygiene products within the United States. Period poverty is not just limited to North America, it’s something that affects menstruators around the globe. Having a lack of access to affordable period products causes menstruators to fall behind or miss out on opportunities available to those who do not experience period poverty. 86% of menstruators have gotten their period when they were in public or unprepared, and the experience can be uncomfortable, annoying, and embarrassing. Studies have shown that 70% of women in Canada have missed school or work because of their period. Don’t let menstruation be the reason your students or employees are absent, help them stay concentrated and worry-free. Citron Hygiene has partnered with Aunt Flow and committed to only offering free-vent period product dispensers in an effort to ensure everyone has access to menstrual products. Aunt Flow dispensers provide sustainable, 100% organic cotton pads and tampons free of charge for staff and students. If toilet paper, soap, and paper towels are provided for free, then why should menstrual products be treated any differently? .
Washrooms are very high-traffic areas in schools, oftentimes tight and poorly ventilated, which are prone to stagnant smells and malodours. Citron Hygiene has a range of effective air fresheners and air purification solutions to not only address malodours, but also to target bacteria, viruses, mould, and other impurities in the air and on surfaces. Eliminate bad odours in the washroom to foster a better user experience for staff, students, and visitors. All of our air care solutions are professionally installed by our Citron Hygiene Certified Technicians and are serviced on a frequency that best suits your needs. .
Drying wet hands is an essential part of good hand hygiene, as germs can be transferred easily to and from wet hands, spreading 1000 times more germs than dry hands. There are two main options for drying your hands in school washrooms, either by using paper towels or hand dryers. In order to avoid the cost of using paper towels along with the waste produced, facilities typically opt for hand dryers. Hand dryers are an effective hand-drying solution, but not all hand dryers are created equal. Some conventional hand dryers can be too loud, are not very hygienic, and are simply ineffective at drying wet hands quickly, but our Pebble+ hand dryers are the complete opposite. Pebble+ hand dryers are not just quiet and energy efficient while drying hands, but its Advanced Hygienic Protocol removes 99.9% of bacteria and viruses. Thus, creating cleaner hands and removing impurities in the air. Whether you need paper towel dispensers or innovative hand dryers, Citron Hygiene has the right solution for you.
Provide a proper, dignified solution to dispose of menstrual hygiene products within your educational institution, to ensure a safer and healthier washroom environment while also preventing potential plumbing costs. Ensuring there is a hygienic means to dispose of menstrual products reduces cross-infection risks from blood-borne pathogens and minimizes the probability of used pads and tampons being flushed down the toilet. According to plumbing experts, menstrual hygiene products do not break down quickly and are among the top causes of drain blockages and major plumbing issues. Citron Hygiene is an industry leader in the field of Menstrual Hygiene Disposal units and will provide your educational establishment with expert, reliable, on-time menstrual disposal waste management. We offer a wide range of solutions varying in size and style that are suitable to fit within any stall.
Encouraging proper hand hygiene in schools will minimize the spread of germs and bacteria among staff and students, helping to decrease the number of sick days. All washrooms within your school, college, or university should provide sufficient soap dispensers, while areas around the facility with high footfall should have hand sanitizer dispensers available to encourage clean hands. Properly washing your hands is key to preventing illnesses and minimizing their spread via contact areas beyond the washrooms. For areas where soap and water are not available, it is recommended to use a hand sanitizer containing 60-90% alcohol concentration for greater effectiveness at killing germs. Citron Hygiene provides not only provides soap and sanitizer dispensers, we also provide reliable, on-time refill services, so you never have to worry about running out of essential hygiene products.
With over 45 years of extensive industry experience, Citron Hygiene provides hygiene solutions to many schools, colleges, and universities across North America. We deliver a professional and friendly service to all our customers, no matter the size of the establishment. All of our services are hassle-free and flexible to make sure your educational establishment gets the services you need when you need them.
