Bulking Up on Hygiene: Preparing Schools with the Right Disinfectants for a Healthy Year

As the new school year approaches, classrooms, cafeterias, and gymnasiums fill with excitement — and germs. Schools are high-traffic environments where illness can spread quickly, making hygiene and disinfection essential to keeping students and staff safe. At HelixEdge Solutions, we help schools bulk up on hygiene supplies and disinfectants so they’re fully prepared to meet the challenges of the season ahead.

Why Hygiene Matters More Than Ever

Schools face unique hygiene challenges: crowded classrooms, shared surfaces, and constant activity. Seasonal illnesses, such as colds and flu, can lead to high absenteeism rates and disrupt learning. By prioritizing hygiene, schools can:

Reduce illness outbreaks among students and staff.
Maintain continuity in education with fewer sick days.
Build trust with parents and the community by showing commitment to health and safety.

Stocking Up on the Right Supplies

A well-prepared school facility should enter the new academic year with a fully stocked hygiene arsenal. Essentials include:

Disinfectants: Broad-spectrum solutions to target bacteria and viruses.
Hand Hygiene: Soap and hand sanitizer stations throughout classrooms, cafeterias, and hallways.
Paper Products: Towels and tissues to support daily hygiene needs.
High-Touch Area Cleaners: Products designed for desks, doorknobs, lockers, and shared equipment.

With HelixEdge’s Ameritech line and green-certified options, schools can ensure effective cleaning that’s also safe for students and the environment.

Pairing Supplies with Equipment

Disinfectants are most effective when paired with the right tools. Our equipment options include:

Electrostatic sprayers for large-scale disinfecting in gyms and cafeterias.
Floor scrubbers and polishers for high-traffic hallways.
Misting systems to sanitize classrooms quickly and efficiently.

These tools ensure coverage is complete and time-efficient, especially in large facilities.
