The project is to complete the development, testing and piloting of a new product to facilitate hand sanitisation in high footfall locations.Hand hygiene is now an essential and permanent public health priority.Current Government Guidance emphasises need for **" provision of automated hand sanitisation dispensers in public places "**Take-up rates for hand sanitation in busy high-volume areas such as train stations are negligible with survey data showing less than 0.4% of people using "stop-and-dispense" sanitisation dispensers.Solutions in place are simply not fit for purpose.Traditional dispensers ("stop-and-dispense") disrupt the flow of people resulting in low take up. At full utilization queues would result which are impractical to facilitate even without social distancing."Stop-and-dispense" machines can process between 5 and 7 people per minute with a socially distanced queue requirement. A London Underground ticket gate can process over 45 people per minute.The proposed project is to complete the development and testing of a unique product specifically designed for high people-flow environments. The key product design objectives are:\* Process people at the same rate as a London Underground ticket barrier\* Allow both hands to be sanitised without stopping, even if carrying a bag or phone.\* Reduce wastage and overuse of sanitation chemicals by dispensing a consistent measure of water-based sanitiser in the most efficient manner possible\* Eliminate use of single use plastic containers that are used in "stop-and-dispense" solutions.The project has significant sustainability benefits incuding reduction of chemical wastes and, reduction of single use plastic containers.The broader secondary market opportunities are significant, the UK has in excess of 50,000 Universities, Schools, Sports Facilities, Hospitals, Shopping Centres and major Supermarkets with foot flow levels exceeding 15.2 Bn/year.

该项目是为了完成开发，测试和试验一种新产品，以促进在人流密集的地方进行手部消毒。手部卫生现在是一项基本和永久的公共卫生优先事项。目前的政府指导强调需要 **"在公共场所提供自动手部消毒剂分配器"** 在忙碌的高人流密集的地方进行手部卫生的使用率-火车站等区域的客流量可以忽略不计，调查数据显示，使用"停止和分配"消毒分配器的人不到0.4%。现有的解决方案根本不适合目的。传统的分配器（"停止和分配"）扰乱人流，导致低占用。在充分利用时，将导致排队，即使没有社交距离，这也是不现实的。“停止和分发”机器每分钟可以处理5到7人，并有社交距离的队列要求。一个伦敦地铁检票口每分钟可以处理超过45人。拟议的项目是完成一个独特的产品的开发和测试，专门为高人流环境设计。主要产品设计目标是：\* 以与伦敦地铁检票口相同的速度处理人\* 允许双手不间断地消毒，即使携带包或电话。\*通过以最有效的方式分配一致的水基消毒剂，减少卫生化学品的浪费和过度使用\* 消除在"停止和分配"解决方案中使用的一次性塑料容器的使用。该项目具有显著的可持续性效益，包括减少化学品废物和减少一次性塑料容器。更广泛的二级市场机会是重要的，英国有超过50，000所大学、学校、体育设施、医院、购物中心和大型超市，客流量超过152亿人/年。
