Soap Dispensers
A wide range of liquid soap dispensers are available in an array of capacities, designs and colours which cater for every public toilet installation. Typically soap dispensers have a capacity of 800ml of liquid antibacterial soap. Servicing and refilling can be effected by either Highveld Toilet Hire or they can be serviced by your own staff with some training.
In order to kill and eliminate germs and viruses, governments all over the world, but especially in South Africa are pushing hand washing initiatives in order to prevent the spread of pathogens. As a result of this, people not only expect but demand hand washing facilities at portable toilets and portable ablution facilities.
Rather than provide traditional bars of soap that can quickly grease up one’s systems, property managers prefer that liquid soaps and sometimes even waterless hand sanitisers be available. It is no surprise therefore that our range of soap dispensers have become very popular and are specified as a necessary accessory with every portable toilet hire agreement. Often portable sinks are also required as these present a more traditional, and indeed the preferred way of washing one’s hands.
It has been known for many years that regular hand washing helps prevent the spread of germs and keeps people healthy. Hand washing literally saves lives. Even though this is a simple gesture, a surprisingly large portion of the population simply doesn’t wash their hands after they use the toilet. By not washing regularly, gems and bacteria will build up on one’s hands and result in infectious diseases which can be so easily be transferred to our eyes, noses and mouths which are entry points for all manner of pulmonary and gastro-intestinal diseases.

The South African Occupational Health and Safety Act requires that all workers have access to suitably clean, hygienic ablution facilities, placing the onus on employers to provide clean facilities which include hand washing facilities. Building sites should have additional hand washing facilities, especially where cement is present as extended contact with cement and hydrochloric or muriatic acid can burn the skin, resulting in unnecessary workman’s compensation claims.
