Kitchen hygiene keeps staff safe from food related illnesses. Our soaps and sanitisers will minimise the amount of germs in food preparation areas.
Toilets
The usual epicentre of germs; our soaps, sanitisers and hand dryers can help to prevent harmful pathogens from escaping the washroom.
Reception / Front doors
First impressions are crucial in any industry. Installing any of Initial’s fixed or serviced matting will ensure yours is a positive one.
Dining Areas
Anywhere with high usage, food and people bringing in germs from different areas can pose a number of hygiene issues. Using surface sanitising will help to keep these germs at bay.
