Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Bakery in Whitby needed to upgrade their hygiene supplies for their busy sea-front premises. With constant footfall and  a busy baking schedule, they needed a reliable, cost-effective catering antibacterial hand wash that wouldn't let them down during their health and  safety inspections.

"Hand washing is constant in a bakery. We needed something effective that wouldn't dry out our hands, and  crucially, something unperfumed so it wouldn't affect our dough. The Jantex soap ticks all the boxes. The big container is great value and  lasts for ages."

Robert Davies – Owner & Head Baker

Since switching, they've passed their hygiene audit with flying colours and  cut their monthly expenditure on soap and  sanitisers by over 25%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Carefully decant the soap into smaller, manageable countertop or wall-mounted dispensers.
  • Avoid overfilling dispensers to prevent spills and  wastage.
  • Clearly label your dispensers as 'Antibacterial Hand Soap' for staff and  customer clarity.
  • Store the main 5L container in a cool, dry storeroom, with the cap screwed on tightly.

Keeping It Going

  • Incorporate a 'check and  refill' of soap dispensers into your daily or weekly cleaning checklists.
  • Wipe down the exterior of your dispensers regularly to maintain a clean appearance.
  • Before refilling, wash out the dispenser with hot water to prevent any old residue from building up.
  • Always ensure the cap on the 5l hand soap refill jug is sealed tightly to prevent contamination.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Hand Soap

Not sure which hand wash is right for your business? Here’s a quick guide to help you choose wisely.

Check for Certification

Always look for the BS EN 1276 standard. This is your guarantee that the product has been independently tested and  proven to kill bacteria effectively.

Scented or Unscented?

For any food-related business, from a kitchen to a food hall, an unscented formula is non-negotiable to prevent any risk of tainting food.

Consider Skin-Friendliness

Your staff will be washing their hands dozens of times a day. A formula free from harsh chemicals, dyes, and  perfumes will prevent skin dryness and  irritation.

The Value of Bulk

Buying bulk hand soap for restaurants, like a 5L container, dramatically lowers the cost per wash and  reduces the frequency of re-ordering, saving you time and  money.

Dispenser Compatibility

Ensure the liquid soap's consistency is suitable for your current dispensers. This Jantex soap is a standard viscosity that works with most manual, pump-action units.
