TORK OFFICE<br />
HYGIENE<br />
PACKAGE TM<br />
IMPROVES<br />
WORKPLACE<br />
SATISFACTION<br />
New from Essity is the Tork Office<br />
Hygiene Package TM designed to<br />
help businesses improve staff<br />
satisfaction in the workplace.<br />
<strong>The</strong> package incorporates smart<br />
hygiene solutions, a new air freshener<br />
and the Office Complaints Minimiser<br />
which allows facility managers to test<br />
their hygiene and cleaning knowledge<br />
against industry data.<br />
Gripes about toilets account for<br />
more than 45 per cent of office<br />
building complaints according to a<br />
recent Statista study.<br />
And a second survey carried out in<br />
2022 revealed that 86 per cent of<br />
office employees regard cleanliness<br />
as the most important aspect of a<br />
good working environment, while<br />
85 per cent believe the state of the<br />
washrooms reflects the cleanliness<br />
of the building overall.<br />
“If restrooms are run well and<br />
efficiently, cleaning teams have more<br />
time to clean the rest of the facility,”<br />
says Anna Königson Koopmans,<br />
Marketing Director Commercial for<br />
Essity’s professional hygiene business.<br />
“And our research shows that better<br />
cleaning quality leads to better<br />
employee workplace satisfaction.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> Office Complaints Minimiser<br />
is a gamified digital challenge aimed<br />
at improving facility managers’<br />
knowledge about hygiene and<br />
cleaning solutions in a bid to reduce<br />
complaints and save time.<br />
Also incorporated in the Tork Office<br />
Hygiene Package is Tork Vision Cleaning<br />
which is designed to take the guesswork<br />
out of the cleaning operation. Using<br />
real-time data from people-counters<br />
and connected dispensers, Tork Vision<br />
Cleaning indicates to facility managers<br />
and cleaning staff those situations<br />
where extra cleaning might be required<br />
and where dispenser refilling is needed.<br />
This reduces the number of dispenser<br />
checks required by up to 91 per cent<br />
while also ensuring that all<br />
dispensers are kept topped up 99 per<br />
cent of the time.<br />
And helping to keep the office<br />
environment smelling fresh is the<br />
new Tork Constant Air Freshener, a<br />
propellant-free aircare system that<br />
neutralises odours continuously<br />
and evenly. <strong>The</strong> dispenser can be<br />
mounted at a reachable height for<br />
cleaners, unlike many systems that<br />
need to be placed high up on the wall<br />
in order to be effective. This means<br />
refills can be easily integrated into<br />
normal cleaning routines, while the<br />
product is third-party certified as<br />
easy to use for speedier refilling.<br />
“Facility managers are facing<br />
multiple challenges including supply<br />
chain issues, labour shortages,<br />
sustainability legislation and a high<br />
staff turnover,” said Anna Königson<br />
Koopmans. “Taking the pressure off<br />
them is important for us and we are<br />
always looking at how our products<br />
and services can deliver both a great<br />
user experience and drive more<br />
efficient cleaning.”<br />
