Did you know Supermarket shopping trolleys have 361 times more bacteria than a toilet or door knob?

We completed our own research late last year during the pandemic which found most shoppers are more concerned about cleanliness in supermarkets now than ever before. We have an article about this here.


We have a new product from HyLayer that fights against all harmful viruses and bacteria, including Coronavirus. It is simply a clear plastic film which attaches to the shopping trolley handle and works immediately. Any bacteria that lands on the handle is killed and any bacteria on the hands of the user will get broken down and killed so it cannot be passed on. The artwork on the handle can still be seen as the film is clear and does not fog up over time. The film has been tested by an independent microbiology laboratory to ISO 22196 standards.

With the film, you will receive an information sticker to put on the trolley handle, which will advertise to the customers that the trolley has been made secure. HyLayer will help improve customer loyalty in your store.
