ZOONO SOUTH AFRICA

A comparison of the three most prominent hand sanitising products in the market.

With so many factors to consider, finding a safe, non-drying, and effective hand sanitiser to protect you and your family can be a real challenge. Because let’s be honest—as much as we all know the importance of keeping your hands clean, it’s a nuisance having to reapply hand sanitiser every time you touch a doorknob or handrail.

With ZOONO, you only need one application to be set for the whole day—even with regular hand washing in-between.

It’s important to know that not all hand sanitising products are created equal. With the market of sanitising solutions booming worldwide and an ever-growing number of options on the shelves, all the unpronounceable chemicals ingredients and properties can get a little overwhelming.

Hand sanitising should be part of your daily routine

It goes without saying that hand washing should be a regular part of your daily routine. Whether it’s after using the toilet or before handling food, a good old scrub with soap and water is a tried-and-true way to get rid of nasty germs.

To make things easier for you, this post helps to break things down for you on the different types of hand sanitising products in the market and how effective they are.

Qantas and United Airlines fights COVID-19 with antimicrobial coating on seats, trays and bins

Zoono Microbe Shield is being used on United aircraft at Chicago O’Hare International Airport. Over the next few months, United expects to expand its use to its six other domestic hubs and roughly 200 U.S. airports where United aircraft remain overnight.

"Zoono Microbe Shield, which United said is an Environmental Protection Agency-registered antimicrobial coating, inhibits the growth of microbes after forming a long-lasting bond with surfaces, according to the carrier. Its use will create an "an extra level of protection on our aircraft to help better protect our employees and customers"

Toby Enqvist, United's chief customer Tweet

In May last year, Qantas reached out to ZOONO Global to see if they could assist with their Fly Well programme.

The safety and wellbeing of their staff and customers is paramount, so they put us through a rigorous testing process (which we passed with flying colours) and we’re proud to now provide every QANTAS and Jetstar Airways customer with two ZOONO Sanitising Towelettes in their Fly Well packs, which also include a complimentary mask.

To date we’ve supplied over 26 million of these branded towelettes and we’ve had loads of positive feedback from QANTAS and Jetstar customers. What an honour to provide next level germ protection for travellers on QANTAS and Jetstar!

The common stock “CHICAGO, Sept. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — United Airlines announced that it is adding Zoono Microbe Shield, an EPA registered antimicrobial coating that forms a long-lasting bond with surfaces and inhibits the growth of microbes, to the airline’s already rigorous safety and cleaning procedures. United is currently applying the coating each week on more than 30 aircraft to seats, tray tables, armrests, overhead bins, lavatories and crew stations and expects to add this latest measure to its entire mainline and express fleet before the end of the year.

The antimicrobial coating, created by Zoono Group Limited, a New Zealand Company and distributed in the USA by MicroSonic Solutions, will serve as an added layer of protection that complements the airline’s existing, daily electrostatic spraying regimen before departing flights.

“This long-lasting, antimicrobial spray adds an extra level of protection on our aircraft to help better protect our employees and customers,” said Toby Enqvist, United’s Chief Customer Officer. “As part of our layered approach to safety, antimicrobials are an effective complement to our hospital-grade HEPA air filtration system, mandatory mask policy for customers and daily electrostatic spraying. We’ve overhauled our policies and procedures and continue to implement new, innovative solutions that deliver a safer onboard experience.”

“MicroSonic is proud to provide United with the most advanced application of antimicrobial protection for their aircraft. Our proprietary NovaRover system combined with Zoono Microbe Shield will deliver an additional effective layer of microbial protection, reassuring customers and crew that the environment inside United aircraft is more safe and clean.”

said Nick Federico, MicroSonic’s President. Tweet

United is currently applying Zoono Microbe Shield on aircraft at Chicago O’Hare International Airport and expects to expand it to each of its six other hubs and approximately 200 U.S. airports where United aircraft remain overnight in the coming months. The airline plans to deploy NovaRovers at ten airports, including each of United’s seven hubs as well as Boston, Cleveland and Las Vegas.
