Over the last few years there has been a growing awareness of climate change and how our actions can affect the environment, no matter what our size is.
Finding an alternative to plastic
The use of plastic has been in the news a lot recently. Some large brands are turning away from standard plastic products such as straws and looking for a more environmentally friendly alternative.
Become an Ocean Hero and save our Ocean Giants
Plastic pollution in our oceans has been in the news a lot of the last few months. The campaign for awareness of how single- use plastics are harming our marine life has become more public with companies removing micro-beads from products and more and more places providing water refilling stations and allowing customers to bring their own containers to fill rather than buy pre-packaged goods.
Grab and Go Food
Food on the go is the current trend, from easy to grab breakfast such as cereal bars or granola pots through to flavoursome street food dinners.
Tidy House, Tidy Mind?
New research shows that the average adult suffers from around 5 ½ years of stress over a lifetime.
Office Kitchen Politics
The office kitchen, a place for coffee and a quick chat, is also a haven for bacteria and germs. Water left on the side, food that has been thrown away and spilt drinks all contribute to the build-up of bacteria and germs.
Free Consultancy Service & Product Training
First Stop offers a free consultancy service to both new and existing customers to help identify key risk areas, assist in preparing cleaning procedures and plans and guidance on the best product selection.
How to deal with Malodours
Malodours can give the impression that an area isn’t hygienic, even if everything is spotlessly clean. Odour Neutraliser kills the bacteria that can cause these odours. It can be used on a variety of surfaces including carpet, fabric and hard surfaces.
Hand Hygiene in the Food Industry
Hand hygiene is essential in food preparation areas. Knowing which products to use and making sure personnel wash their hands correctly is of the upmost importance to reduce the risk of cross contamination.
