Are refillable bulk soap dispensers a threat to the health of restroom users?

What is a refillable bulk soap dispenser?

Refillable soap is the kind that is usually poured into the dispenser reservoir from a one-gallon soap tank. One in every four refillable bulk soap dispensers is contaminated with disease-causing bacteria. If the dispenser is soiled, it can't be cleaned with our regular bleach! Because the bacteria keep regrowing. Therefore, in order to protect the health of toilet users, whether it is family health or public health, it is necessary to replace the dispenser within a certain period of time to avoid contamination.

After testing by the World Health Organization, recognizing the risk of bacterial contamination of refillable bulk soap dispensers by filling up the body, when they realized this was the wrong approach, they were already on notice to prohibit this practice at all times.

How to avoid this situation?

When used at home, the soap dispenser should be replaced regularly so that it can be kept clean and hygienic; the management of public places should be strengthened to protect the safety and health of the public.

Either use sealed soap dispensers or prevent backflow soap dispensers. Sealed soap dispenser systems are installed in more public toilets today because they offer many advantages over refillable bulk soaps, starting with the health and well-being of toilet users.

Many people today are switching from refillable bulk soap dispensers to sealed dispensing systems. When this transition is complete, facility managers will eliminate unnecessary health risks while experiencing the many benefits of a sealed distribution system.
