Hibiwash Antibacterial Skin Cleanser 125ml

Product Description

Hibiwash is your trusted partner in preventing infections, promoting skin integrity, and saving time before surgical procedures. With 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate, it offers a wide range of antimicrobial activity and has been used for decades in hospitals. Regular use of Hibiwash can help reduce the chance of 11 in 100 patients contracting a surgical site infection (SSI) up to 30 days after surgery and has been shown to decrease the risk of hospital-associated S. aureus infections by up to 60% when combined with a nasal antibiotic. Hibiwash binds to the skin, forming a protective layer that continues to kill microorganisms long after application. Unlike povidone iodine, it is not inactivated by bodily fluids. Reformulated to be more sustainable, Hibiwash uses fewer raw materials and energy, and its removal of colour, fragrance, and soya oil makes it gentler on the skin, reducing the risk of irritation or allergic reactions. With added emollients, it remains gentle even with frequent use, promoting increased compliance.
