Description
This Atlas knee-operated wash hand basin WHBK is a complete solution to hand hygiene in a commercial kitchen setup. The FSAI-approved system is an essential addition to any professional setup.
When you go to wash your hands using a normal tap there will be cross-contamination. You turn on the tap with an unwashed hand, which could potentially leave germs on the tap handle, this is the touch again after washing your hands to turn it off, which potentially transfers the germs back onto your hands and other people’s hands. A hands-free operation to prevent cross-contamination is the simple solution to this problem.
