The Superior Choice: Against Bog-Standard Sanitiser

When comparing Windmill Touch Sanitise against basic, or "bog-standard," alcohol sanitisers, the difference lies in three critical areas: Efficacy, Compliance, and Comfort.

Feature	Windmill Touch Sanitise (73% Alcohol)	Standard, Budget Sanitiser (e.g., 60-70% Alcohol)
Alcohol Content & Efficacy	73% - Highly effective against enveloped viruses (EN 14476) and a wider spectrum of microorganisms. Rapid germ-kill.	Often lower (e.g., 60-70%) or unverified. May offer less reliable protection against certain viruses.
Compliance & Approval	Fully compliant with BS EN 1500, EN 1276, and EN 14476 essential for professional and healthcare settings.	May only meet basic bactericidal standards (EN 1276) or have no full certification.
Skin Care & Comfort	Includes built-in skin conditioners to prevent dryness and cracking, ensuring hands are soft and non-sticky.	Often lacks emollients, leading to dry, irritated skin with frequent use and may leave a noticeable, tacky residue.
Application Suitability	Non-tainting and Food Safe. Suitable for all sectors, including medical, catering, and education.	The presence of strong scents, dyes, or non-food-safe ingredients may limit use in food areas.

Choosing Windmill Touch Sanitise means choosing a professional-grade, certified product that doesn't compromise on skin health or performance, offering true confidence in your hygiene regimen.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: What is the purpose of the 73% alcohol concentration?

The 73% alcohol content (ethanol-based) is specifically chosen as it falls within the range (60-95%) scientifically proven by public health bodies to be most effective at denaturing the proteins and dissolving the outer lipid layer of viruses and bacteria. This high concentration ensures a rapid and broad-spectrum kill of transient germs, including enveloped viruses, which is why it meets high European standards like EN 14476.

Q2: Does this hand sanitiser dry out the skin with frequent use?

No. Unlike pure alcohol solutions or poorly formulated sanitisers, the Windmill Touch Sanitise includes skin conditioners (emollients) in its formula. These ingredients help to rehydrate the skin and prevent the natural oils from being stripped away, which is the primary cause of dryness and irritation from alcohol-based products.

Q3: Is this product suitable for use in food preparation environments?

Yes, absolutely. The formula is quick-acting and non-tainting, meaning it leaves behind no sticky residue or strong odour that could transfer to or affect food products. This makes it an officially food-safe hand rub compliant with relevant standards for use in catering and food handling sectors.

Q4: What type of dispenser is the 1L cartridge compatible with?

This 1L refill cartridge (Variant code: 10-820) is specifically designed to work with the Windmill Dispenser System from AUK Hygiene. The sealed cartridge design ensures a low-maintenance, hygienic system that prevents contamination and spillage, enhancing overall efficiency.

Q5: What do the compliance standards BS EN 1500 and BS EN 14476 mean?

BS EN 1500 is the European standard for a hygienic hand rub test, proving that the product provides a specific, high level of germ-reduction on hands.
BS EN 14476 is the European standard for quantitative suspension test for virucidal activity. Compliance with this standard indicates the product is effective against certain viruses, including enveloped viruses like those that cause Coronaviruses and Influenza.
