Telephones and mobiles are one of the biggest contributors for the transmission of bugs, bacteria and diseases causing ear, nose and eye infections. You don’t know who uses your telephone when you’re away from your workstation so we recommend cleaning your telephone once a day.

Use telephone cleaning wipes and sachets regularly to clean and maintain your telephone, mobile phone or headset

Wipe down the phone surface, paying particular attention to the buttons on the keypad, the mouth and ear piece

Try to use wipes that have antibacterial and antimicrobial properties that protect against the risk of infection from bacteria


Don’t spray fluid directly onto the telephone surface, mouth or ear piece. Only use saturated wipes to effectively clean the telephone.
