Hand Sanitiser
Hand sanitiser
Alcohol-based hand sanitiser in the formats and volumes workplaces actually use — personal pocket bottles for drivers and service crews, pump bottles for benchtop use, and 5 L refills for wall-dispenser programs. 70% ethanol or isopropanol formulations are the default; specialty formats include moisturising variants for skin-sensitive workers and foam for higher-traffic dispensers.
Volume and format
- 50–100 mL personal bottles — belt-clip, glove-box, or uniform-pocket issue. For drivers, service techs, field staff, and public-facing roles.
- 250–500 mL benchtop pumps — trade counters, reception desks, site-office entries.
- 1 L pump bottles — shared crib rooms and higher-traffic benches.
- 5 L refill containers — for refilling wall dispensers and 1 L pumps without buying individual units.
Formulation types
- Gel — the default. Thickened gel holds on hands during rub-in.
- Foam — expands on dispensing; lower liquid-volume per pump, economical at high volume.
- Liquid / spray — fastest-drying; good for surface application as well as hands.
- Moisturising — added aloe vera, glycerin, or emollients for workers with skin-sensitivity or high-frequency use.
- Fragrance-free — for food-handling, healthcare, and workers with fragrance sensitivities.
Alcohol concentration
Specified on every bottle. Effective range is 60–80%; 70% is the workplace standard. Lower than 60% is significantly less effective; higher than 80% evaporates too fast. Most workplaces stock 70% as the default.
Shelf life and storage
Alcohol sanitiser has a typical 24–36 month shelf life from manufacture. Alcohol content decreases as bottles are opened repeatedly (vapour escape); rotate stock and use bottles within 12 months of opening. Store out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources — flammable (alcohol > 24% is classed as a flammable liquid; most sanitisers are 70%+).
Workplace distribution
A typical site deploys:
- A pocket bottle per driver/field worker.
- A pump bottle at each shared entry point.
- A wall dispenser at crib rooms and amenities.
- Refill containers for program-level restocking.
Consumption varies — high-hygiene environments (aged care, food manufacturing) use significantly more than typical trade sites.
Standards & compliance
Products in this range comply with the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) requirements for hand sanitiser — either registered as a therapeutic good or listed under the hand-hygiene exemption. Alcohol concentration, active ingredient, and expiry disclosed on every bottle.
Frequently asked questions
Should I specify ethanol or isopropanol?
Either works; both are effective at 60–80% concentration. Ethanol is the most common in consumer and workplace products. Isopropanol formulations can feel slightly more drying but are identical in microbial efficacy.
Can I mix different sanitiser brands in one dispenser?
Avoid mixing — different formulations have different viscosities and can interact (foam + gel often clogs dispensers). Finish one container before starting another; if switching brands, flush and clean the dispenser first.
What do I do with expired sanitiser?
Alcohol content decreases over time, and past the expiry date effectiveness is not guaranteed. Expired stock should be replaced rather than used. Dispose of sealed bottles via general waste (not drain — alcohol-treatment plants can handle incidentally small quantities but bulk alcohol should go through proper chemical waste channels).
Do you offer trade or bulk pricing?
Yes — 5% trade discount, plus case and pallet quantities on 5 L refills for multi-dispenser programs. Apply for a trade account →
