Loo of the year competition sees the launch of Bathroom Wipe-out 365

In the run up to Christmas, the usual rounds of competitions hit our screens, programmes such as The Great British Bake Off and Strictly. However, we are also counting down to a competition you may not be so familiar with, ‘The Loo of the Year’.  This year, Signo Nanocare UK is proud to be sponsoring this long running and highly contested competition with the launch of their new self-disinfecting surface treatment Bathroom Wipe-out 365™.

Bathroom Wipe-out 365™ is the newest generation of surface protection that ensures all surfaces stay clean. Bathroom Wipe-out 365™ not only repels liquid and dirt and prevents micro scratches, it also has an antimicrobial function that kills germs (including bacteria, mould, fungi, algae and yeasts) that meet the treated surface. This reduces the spread of infections that are easily picked up via the hand-surface-hand transfer route, especially when studies show that a large proportion of the population (62% of men and 40% of women) don’t wash their hands after going to the loo, and only 5% do it correctly even then.

The Loo of the Year Awards have been running since 1987 and aims to recognise and reward the highest level of washroom and toilet cleanliness. The award scheme has become a well-established standard throughout the UK and Ireland, respected by users and operators alike.

Entries for the sixty-one categories come from a range of toilet and washroom providers, including many well-known high-street restaurant, hotel and pub chains; retail outlets and leisure providers; through to health, education and local authorities’ facilities. In fact, any type of public washroom can be nominated for the awards, which culminate in the presentation ceremony, which will be held on the 6^th December in Solihull.
