Do You Need Couch Roll?
Although termed ‘couch rolls’, traditionally used for laying over examination couches, hygiene roll is utilised for wiping surfaces too; it can be wet and used for wiping down the couch after use, for example with an antibacterial spray. Therefore it is a versatile and useful product.
Most often used in medical and other care settings, couch roll is now seen widespread across the beauty salon industry and other settings such as sports and massage centres.
Couch rolls provide a layer between patient and couch and because they are disposable, once finished with, any germs and bodily fluids are disposed of too. This minimises the spread of pathogens and helps maintain a hygienic setting.
They are also an effective time saving solution compared to the alternatives such as using towels, and a relatively cost effective solution to help maintain a clean, professional setting.
Does Your Workplace Require Couch Roll?
In medical and care establishments, couch roll can be quickly and easily rolled over an examination couch to provide an extra level of hygiene and maintain professionalism in the setting. Couch rolls are seen in hospitals, GP surgeries, sports and physio centres among others.
If you run a beauty salon business, couch roll can help protect your treatment beds from marks and stains from makeup & beauty treatments, as well as their role in maintaining hygiene.
Choosing Your Couch Roll
Couch rolls are generally made from heavy paper, usually in 1 or 2 ply thickness, and made so it doesn’t rip easily when wet.
The rolls are perforated along their length meaning they can be ripped off after each patient/client. A good couch roll will have strong perforations so they don’t rip too easily when someone lies on it.
Couch rolls are generally made from virgin paper for strength – but can be recycled. Compared to using towels for example, you could be reducing your environmental impact by saving on excessive laundering.
Recycled paper couch rolls are also available, to maximise eco-friendliness.
