Initial Hand Sanitiser

The Initial Hand Sanitiser is our powerful, alcohol-based gel formulated to meet the highest hygiene standards. Recommended for use in areas where rapid disinfection is critical, this 80% alcohol formulation is aligned with World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines. It’s fast-acting and kills 99.99% of bacteria and viruses within seconds.  The pH-neutral gel evaporates quickly, leaving hands feeling fresh without a sticky residue. Rigorously tested to be effective against a wide range of germs, making it a staple for clinical and commercial environments. Integral antimicrobial technology improves surface hygiene and helps prevent the spread of germs by preventing the growth of bacteria and viruses.

UltraProtect Hand Sanitiser

For those seeking an alternative to alcohol-based products, UltraProtect™ offers a powerful, gentle, and long-lasting solution. This alcohol-free foam is dermatologically tested and ideal for frequent use. Unlike alcohol, which evaporates quickly, UltraProtect™ provides up to eight hours of residual protection on the skin. The foam formulation is clinically proven not to dry out or crack skin, encouraging better compliance among staff who sanitise frequently. UltraProtect™ is safe and inclusive, making it the perfect choice for diverse workplaces and educational facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • What are the best hand sanitisers to use?

    It depends on your environment. Alcohol-based sanitisers offer rapid, high-level disinfection for clinical settings. UltraProtect™ is better for sensitive skin, offers longer-lasting residual protection, and is safer for environments such as education facilities.


  • Do non-alcohol hand sanitisers work?

    Non-alcohol hand sanitisers are highly effective, but they work differently from the alcohol-based gels you might be used to. Non-alcohol sanitisers such as UltraProtect™use specialised antimicrobial agents to break down germs more rigorously.


  • Are touchless dispensers worth the extra cost?

    Yes, touchless dispensers significantly reduce the risk of cross contamination by eliminating a common touchpoint. They also tend to encourage more frequent use by visitors and staff due to their ease of use.


  • What are Initial's servicing options?

    We offer a range of different service options to suit you, including full dispenser service, contractual deliveries of refills and the outright sale of refills.


  • How often should you refill the dispenser?

    All of our hand and surface sanitiser dispensers feature viewing windows that allow you to keep an eye on the level of sanitiser in your dispensers.


  • What is the recommended alcohol % for hand sanitiser?

    The WHO guidance indicates that alcohol hand sanitisers should contain between 60% to 80% alcohol. We offer several products that fulfil these requirements:

    WHO Guidelines on Hand Hygiene in Health Care

Achieve proper hand hygiene in three steps

1. Handwashing

Wash thoroughly using soap and warm water, for at least 20-30 seconds, to remove dirt and pathogens. Ensure handwashing covers commonly missed areas such as palms of hands, back of hands, around thumbs, between fingers and around fingernails.

2. Hand Drying

Dry completely using an appropriate hand drying solution, suited to your washroom environment. Ineffective hand drying can spread bacteria and viruses around the workplace.

3. Hand Sanitising

When hands are completely dry, ensure hand sanitiser is applied to further protect yourself and others.
