Get a Handle on Cleaning

Right out of the European Cleaning Journal.  Fascinating way to clean the handles on shopping carts, or trolleys as they're called in Europe.

Cleaning gadget tackles germs on shopping trolley handles

30th of October 2015

A cleaning device that helps keep the handles of supermarket trolleys free from E.coli and faecal bacteria is being trialled in stores in the Middle East.
Soap maker LifeBuoy has developed the Handle on Hygiene, which it claims will kill 99.9 per cent of bacteria.
The Handle on Hygiene is a circular device that attaches to the handle of a supermarket trolley. As the trolley user swipes it from side-to-side it leaves a layer of soap which cleans and disinfects the trolley handle.
The Handle on Hygiene is currently being trialled in Carrefour supermarkets throughout the Middle East.

Lifebuoy's marketing manager Bora Ursal says the product has numerous uses beyond shopping. "We want to use these in hospitals, on trains and on buses," he said.
