When you’re in charge of a public or commercial bathroom, you want to be sure that it remains clean and free of any harmful bacteria. It’s especially important to keep bacteria in bathrooms at bayin order to create a sanitary space for its users.

But with all of the moisture and humidity in bathrooms, how can you prevent harmful bacteria growth, such as mold and mildew, on bathroom partitions?

You can have a clean, presentable, and sanitary bathroom thanks to the help of Scranton Products. Read on to learn how you can prevent bacteria growth on your bathroom partitions.

Choose a Bathroom Partition Material That’s Impermeable to Moisture

Moisture is one of the leading causes of bacterial growth and reproduction in public and commercial bathrooms. In fact, moisture is the catalyst for mold, mildew, and bacteria in bathrooms. However, if you select a partition material that repels moisture, you will have taken an important step to help reduce bacteria from growing on the surface.

This impermeable surface can be found through the use of HDPE plastic bathroom partitions such as Scranton Products’ Hiny Hiders, Eclipse Partitions and Aria Partitions which don’t allow for the growth of mold or mildew.

Build Your Bathroom Partitions with Material That’s Resistant to MRSA Bacteria

MRSA is a bacteria that causes hard-to-treat infections. Upon exposure, individuals may experience sores or blisters, while more severe cases can infect the bloodstream. Needless to say, it’s a type of bacteria that you want to keep out of your bathroom and off your bathroom partitions.

To easily prevent this bacterial growth, you need to build your bathroom partitions with naturally germ-resistant material, such as the HDPE Hiny Hiders. The naturally germ-resistant material kills 98.4% of MRSA bacteria on the surface of the partitions within 24 hours without cleaning.  This is important for the health of the people using your bathrooms, especially if they put their hands on the bathroom partitions.

Make Sure That Your Bathroom Partitions Have Been Properly Tested to Repel Bacteria

When trying to prevent bacteria from growing on your bathroom partitions, make sure that the material you choose has been properly tested for this.

You don’t have to take our word for it when we say that the HDPE Hiny Hiders bathroom partitions are impermeable to moisture and naturally germ resistant. Scranton Products HDPE underwent a 28-day test by the American Society for Testing and Materials, during which time they didn’t experience any microbial growth, such as mold or mildew, as opposed to other bathroom partition materials. And the SiTU Biosciences Lab confirmed that HDPE material is germ resistant without the help of any cleaning supplies.

Bathrooms are breeding grounds for bacteria and germs, and you don’t want your bathroom partitions to be susceptible to them. The easy method for prevention would be to choose HDPE Hiny HidersEclipse and Aria Partitions from Scranton Products which have been tested to prevent and be resistant to harmful bacteria in bathrooms, creating a more sanitary environment for your bathroom partitions.
