For difficult inks

Inks can irritate the skin and be difficult to remove. Overwashing can irritate the skin and cause drying. This could lead to damaged skin that has lost its moisture, elasticity, and natural barrier function. Damaged skin is more likely to react with irritants than well-conditioned skin. This could lead to irritant contact dermatitis.

Dermatitis is the leading-cause of work-related illness[1] and is one of the most costly and rapidly expanding conditions in the U.S. Direct medical expenses are more than $1.4 billion with another $500 million in productivity losses.[2] This could have a large, hidden financial burden on both employers and employees.

Ensure employees use the mildest, effective skin cleaner convenient for use in each part of the plant. Provide GOJO® Ink & Stain Hand Cleaner to remove ink jet inks from hands.

As a part of an effective regimen, employees should condition their skin often. To facilitate this, place GOJO® HAND MEDIC® Professional Skin Conditioner in convenient locations (plant entrances, high traffic pathways, near workstations and break areas) for convenient use. This will help condition and moisturize skin. Well-conditioned skin will feel better and is less likely to crack or react with outside irritants.

Recommended regimen:

  GOJO® HAND MEDIC® Professional Skin Conditioner
  GOJO® Ink & Stain Hand Cleaner
