Georgia-Pacific Professional introduces the newest extension of its durable wiper product line the Brawny Industrial Surface System. This wiper product allows end-users to combine their preferred disinfectant or sanitizer with Brawny wipers to create custom-made hard surface cleaning wipers.
Brawny Industrials Surface System is an ideal cleaning solution for healthcare surfaces such as bed rails, trays, nurse call devices, doorknobs, phones and washroom surfaces. The sealed wiper bucket offers an alternative to traditional open buckets or spray bottles as it effectively helps reduce splashes, spills and vapors that can potentially harm employees and facility guests.
"Georgia-Pacific Professional aims to offer products that meet customer expectations and needs for workspace cleaning and hygienic solutions," said Ken Smith, vice president and general manager of Georgia-Pacific Professionals wiper category. "Specifically for healthcare, our new Brawny Industrial Surface System was developed to help improve cleaning efficacy, as opposed to cloth, by releasing more of the cleaning agent to the surface to maintain desired disinfectant concentration. This notably enhances the operational efficiency of the product and further supports the efforts of healthcare professionals regarding surface cleaning."
The dispensing bucket for the Brawny Industrial Surface System also contributes to a more hygienic cleaning procedure because it helps minimize cross-contamination of the cleaning solution and unused wipers.
Georgia-Pacific Professionals Brawny Industrial Surface System wipers are available in a case of six rolls, 90 wipers each. Buckets are sold separately.
