UV GERM Hygiene Training Powder
£8.99 – £24.99
British made surface hygiene / cross-contamination training powder.
An ultra-fine, non-toxic, dust-like powder which simulates the cross-contamination characteristics of microbes for a more convincing demonstration. When exposed to UV light, the microscopic powder particles will fluoresce brightly in one of 3 colours. Using a different colour for each contamination source, clearly demonstrates how easily cross-contamination occurs and from whence it came. Suitable for use in Hazmat and bio-hazard training too.
Available as: UV Green, UV Blue and UV Red
For best results, expose to UV light in a darkened environment.

How to use
Designed for use in Surface Hygiene Training and Cross-Contamination Simulations. This range of exceptionally bright Hygiene Training Powders, will reproduce the touch transmission characteristics of germs / microbes / contaminants. Dust / scatter sparingly and lightly onto handles, work surfaces, flooring, carpets or fabrics. Once applied this powder is virtually invisible to the eye (on most white / light surfaces) and being extremely fine, these harmless microscopic UV particles will then be transferred on contact.
Green is the brightest of the 3 colours, then blue then red.
When illuminated with a UV forensic torch or inside the Showbox Pro, the particles will fluoresce brightly, revealing their continued presence or the cross-contamination and its colour-coded source.
This product is easily removed using normally surface cleaning practice. As such is suitable for demonstrating hygienic cleaning methods and visualising post cleaning inspection for compliance monitoring etc.
Suitable for use in Hazmat and bio-hazard training too.
Please Note: This product is NOT suitable outdoor use or in ‘wet’ area such as toilets, bathrooms, shower rooms etc.

This product is considered safe and non-toxic for COSHH purposes. However this product is not classed as Food Safe and is therefore unsuitable for use in areas designated for food production or food preparation.
Note: Requires a suitable UV light source (Forensic Torch). Not supplied.

Note: UV LED based Black lights do not always emit the correct frequencies required to fully activate these powders and emit far too much ‘visible light’ (known as spill) which can over-power the resultant fluorescent glow. For best performance we recommend using a UV Forensic Pro Torch with these powders.
