Hand Sanitizing Wipes

Get the Extra Protection of Shark Armor

 During these uncertain times, when we are constantly bombarded with conflicting information about the pandemic, one thing IS certain – hand hygiene is one of the most important and easiest ways to prevent the spread of pathogens. And when it comes to safeguarding your health, as well as that of your family, employees, patients, congregants, and customers, you want the best protection you get can – Shark Armor hand sanitizing wipes.

With 80 percent ethanol, we exceed FDA minimum and beat the competition.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60 percent alcohol. The top sellers on the market right now are between 62 and 70 percent  ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. Shark Armor wipes are premoistened with a whopping 80 percent denatured ethyl alcohol! They also contain a kosher, natural moisturizer and are bleach- and phenol-free. Shark Armor wipes can be placed in suitable dispensers based on dimensions. There are 1,000 premoistened wipes per roll.

Hand hygiene and COVID-19

According to CDC, “Hand hygiene is an important part of the U.S. response to the international emergence of COVID-19. Practicing hand hygiene, which includes the use of alcohol-based hand rub (ABHR) or handwashing, is a simple yet effective way to prevent the spread of pathogens and infections in healthcare settings. CDC recommendations reflect this important role.

The exact contribution of hand hygiene to the reduction of direct and indirect spread of coronaviruses between people is currently unknown. However, hand washing mechanically removes pathogens, and laboratory data demonstrate that ABHR formulations in the range of alcohol concentrations recommended by CDC, inactivate SARS-CoV-2” [the virus that causes COVID-19]. 

Safer than quats

Many of the popular wipes and disinfectants on the market contain quaternary ammonium chlorides (or quats). Be aware that quats are inexpensive and potent against numerous infectious agents, but there are health hazards such as these:¹

• Quats are potent skin irritants and can cause rashes and dermatitis.
• Quats can irritate your lungs leading to breathing problems.
• Cleaning workers exposed regularly to quats have developed occupational asthma.
• Quats are linked to reproductive harm, potentially affecting fertility, and possibly leading to birth defects.
• Widespread use of quats is contributing to the global problem of antimicrobial resistance, leading to the development of “superbugs” that cannot be controlled with antibiotics.
