Chemical Safety & Compliance


Introduction

At Hygiene Direct, we believe supplying cleaning chemicals is only part of the job.

Using the right product, in the right place, at the correct dilution and with the appropriate safety information is just as important as the product itself.

That's why we work alongside businesses throughout New Zealand to help create safer workplaces, improve cleaning standards and support compliance with workplace health and safety requirements.

Whether you operate a school, healthcare facility, office, gym, hospitality venue or industrial site, our experienced team can help you build a safer and more effective cleaning programme.
