The PURELL® Brand Expands Its Solutions for the Canadian Market

A breakthrough advance in non-antibacterial soap and touch-free dispensing technology to help improve public health.

PURELL SOLUTION Canada Product Family

GOJO is a market leader in hygiene solutions for skin and surfaces and the inventor of PURELL® Hand Sanitizer. The Purpose-driven Family Enterprise introduced its latest innovations - PURELL HEALTHY SOAP™* High-Performance Foam with CLEAN RELEASE™ Technology and the PURELL® ES8 Dispensing System.

“PURELL® products are universally recognized and trusted as a way to help reduce the spread of germs,” said Marisa Fernandes, GOJO Canada Vice President and General Manager. “Having PURELL® products available sends a clear signal that the institution, hospital, or restaurant cares about the cleanliness, and the health and well-being of its employees, patients, and guests.”

PURELL HEALTHY SOAP™* High-Performance Foam with CLEAN RELEASE Technology
New PURELL HEALTHY SOAP™* High-Performance Foam with CLEAN RELEASETechnology is hypoallergenic and free of parabens, triclosan, and phthalates and gentle on the skin. This new breakthrough in soap technology boosts soap’s performance with its proprietary surfactant system and reaches into the skin’s cracks and crevices.1 It also works better than regular soap** on dry and irritated skin, removing 30 percent more dirt than regular soap.2

CLEAN RELEASE Technology soaps are the greenest GOJO soap formulations and are made with plant-based ingredients. CLEAN RELEASE Technology soaps rinse faster and cleaner, saving an estimated six gallons per refill compared to regular soap.3

PURELL® ES8 Dispensing System
The PURELL® ES8 Dispensing System is a set of touch-free soap and hand sanitizer dispensers that addresses the two most common service issues – worn-out batteries and empty dispensers.

PURELL® ES8 dispensers eliminate the hassle of battery change outs through energy-on-the-refill technology. Each new refill comes with its own energy source – a coin cell battery that is integrated into the refill. When you replace the empty refill, you get fresh product and fresh energy in one, simple step.

The system’s AT-A-GLANCE refill design allows housekeeping personnel the ability to monitor product levels with just one look making it easy to see which dispensers need attention, eliminating potential complaints about empty dispensers. All PURELL® ES8 dispensers can be integrated with optional GOJO SMARTLINK plug-in modules to track hand hygiene compliance, receive alerts when dispensers need service or add other upgrades as technology evolves.

Built for sustainable performance, the PURELL® ES8 systems represents a 68 percent reduction in battery waste and a 15 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions when compared to leading touch-free systems on the market.
