Alcohol-based hand rub with propanol

JOHNSON DIVERSEY’s Softcare Med H5 is an alcohol-based hand rub with a combination of Propan-1-ol, Propan-2-ol, glycerine and cellulose thickener, for optimum antimicrobial activity, skin care, compliance with standards and safety in use.

It is used for infection control and is effective against norovirus, Influenza A (H1N1), rotavirus, hepatitis B, HIV, MRSA and other common infections. There is a small, but constant risk of patients and visitors ingesting an alcohol based product in the misguided belief it is cheap alternative to drink. However, propanol reduces this risk because it is unpalatable. The thickening system used in Softcare Med H5 ensures the gel does not instantly liquefy and run off the hands. Softcare Med H5 is available in a variety of formats including cartridges for wall mounted dispensers or pelican pumps for general locations and small carry bottles for personal use.
