Industrial hand wash basins have several benefits over regular kitchen/bathroom designs. However, with so many types of wash basin models and price points, it’s easy to feel a little overwhelmed by the choice. Still, understanding how they’re used can help you decide whether these might be the right solutions for your own business.
In industrial applications, ensuring you’ve got the ideal type of washing station for your staff is paramount. To this end, industrial hand wash basins are incredibly important, serving as an integral part of the business’s hygiene management. These units make it easy for staff and guests alike to easily and thoroughly clean their hands, without the risk of cross-contamination.
How Handwashing Works in Industry
An industrial stainless steel wash basin is designed with practicality in mind. Therein, they allow industrial operations to increase efficiency in the hand and equipment cleaning process.
Such units are either wall mounted or free standing, depending on the design and space requirements of a premises. They typically also feature a hands-free design; this allows efficient operation without requiring staff to manually push buttons that could lead to contamination during the cleaning process.
Industrial hand wash basins are largely similar to regular sinks in terms of function and use, with individuals standing in front of the basin and holding their hands beneath the flow of water for a thorough clean. However, they are usually triggered through motion sensors or, in other cases, through knee operation, thereby ensuring a thorough clean. This differs from many regular household and commercial sinks, which often still feature hand-pressed buttons or hand-turned faucets.
What are the Benefits of Using a Stainless Steel Wash Basin?
Several of the most prominent benefits of using industrial hand wash basins include:
- Durable construction: By using top-rated materials, industrial units are designed with quality in mind. This helps enhance durability, which is paramount in commercial settings where the unit will likely be used regularly, potentially with strong chemical detergents.
- Ergonomic design: Thanks to their ergonomic design, industrial basins are more comfortable to use for staff and guests. This encourages users to clean their hands more thoroughly rather than rushing the process due to discomfort.
- Splash-proof: Not only is splashing water incredibly frustrating for your guests, but it can potentially also spread dirt and debris around your cleaning station. Fortunately, thanks to their splash-proof design, this won’t be a worry.
- Free-draining style: Industrial basins are designed to fully drain of water between uses. This helps prevent water from building up and stagnating. In turn, this reduces the risk of bacteria such as Legionella while also preventing pests from being attracted to standing water.
- Spacious for multiple users: Generally speaking, most industrial hand wash basins are large and spacious (although single-user options are also available). This is often incredibly important for industrial premises where multiple users are likely to need the unit at one time. By preventing queues, such designs can enhance efficiency within the business in turn.
