72% of organizations now mandate in-office work [S1]. As more employees return to the office, creating a clean, comfortable and well-maintained workplace is becoming increasingly important. CWS Hygiene helps create an environment where employees, visitors and customers feel welcome, cared for and confident in the facilities they use through hygiene solutions such as:
A clean and well-maintained office supports a professional and welcoming environment for visitors, customers and employees. Making a good impression is critical, with studies suggesting office cleanliness is associated with greater employee satisfaction and higher perceived productivity [S2]. CWS Hygiene’s workplace hygiene solutions help facility teams manage entrances, reception areas, meeting rooms, washrooms and restrooms without making individual employees responsible for stocking or maintaining each hygiene system.
A clean and comfortable workplace helps contribute to employees’ sense of safety, respect and value. The CWS Hygiene offer includes:
As offices become central to collaboration and daily work, reliable hygiene routines can help support wellbeing, productivity and operational continuity
Yet shared spaces and frequently touched surfaces create ongoing hygiene challenges, including infections. Reliable workplace hygiene solutions offered by CWS Hygiene help support healthier, more productive offices.
Reception areas are used by employees, visitors and delivery partners. But a messy entrance can create the wrong impression. CWS Hygiene’s Floorcare hygiene solutions, such as dust mats, support the reduction of dirt and moisture brought indoors. Accessible hand disinfection supports hygiene and the creation of a professional impression on arrival.
Workstations and shared desks need regular cleaning of high-touch items such as desks, keyboards, telephones, printers and other shared equipment. According to recent research, about 80 % of infectious diseases can be spread by contaminated hands [S3]. CWS Hygiene provides convenient surface-cleaning and hand-hygiene solutions, helping employees clean between routine cleaning cycles.
Meeting rooms, kitchens and break rooms bring people into contact with shared surfaces such as tables, door handles, lift buttons and coffee machines, which can be hotspots for bacteria. Simple cleaning routines and accessible CWS Hygiene surface hygiene solutions support cleaner, safer and more comfortable environments. Air quality solutions are available to contribute to a fresh and welcoming atmosphere.
Washrooms need reliable handwashing, hand drying, skin care and waste management. CWS Hygiene combines these elements into practical, low-maintenance hand-hygiene and toilet solutions that support cleanliness, comfort and dependable daily use. Clean, well-equipped washrooms may encourage regular handwashing. Studies have shown that handwashing with soap can reduce respiratory illnesses such as colds in the general population by around 16–21% [S4].
Inclusivity is especially important in restrooms. A 2013 survey in the US found that 86% of women aged 18–54 who unexpectedly started their period in public did not have the supplies they needed with them [S5]. This highlights the importance of providing reliable toilet hygiene, effective surface cleaning, sanitary waste disposal and discreet access to period products. CWS Hygiene’s toilet hygiene solutions support the creation of clean, private and inclusive facilities for everyone.
Offices bring people into contact with shared surfaces, facilities and one another throughout the day. This can affect comfort and increase hygiene risks if cleaning routines, hand hygiene and washroom facilities are not well maintained.
