Hubbell ScrubSwitch™: Deny Bacteria a Place to Thrive!
Did you know that an average light switch harbors 112 colonies of bacteria per square centimeter, making it as germ-ridden as a trash bin? To maintain cleanliness, it is recommended to sanitize high-touch surfaces at least once every 24 hours. Meet your environmental health cleaning needs effortlessly with the Hubbell ScrubSwitch™!
Bacteria thrive in crevices:
- The narrow gaps and seams between the toggle and plate, as well as the heads of wall plate screws, often cannot be cleaned properly.
Cleaning standard switches can lead to problems:
- Spraying solution directly onto the toggle switch often causes damage to the wall plate, including discoloration and cracking.
- Cleaning solutions infiltrating the switch interior can cause the device to burn out.
Switch to ScrubSwitch™ and enjoy these benefits:
- Designed with a fully smooth surface that is not only resistant to impacts and chemicals, but also capable of withstanding the stringent cleaning required in patient areas.
