The original visual tool for teaching proper handwashing, aseptic techniques, and general infection control
In this age of concern over infectious diseases, security, and liability, Glo Germ™ is an effective tool to demonstrate handwashing, surface cleaning, hygiene, and containment techniques.
It is a big mistake to assume that your employees understand the critical nature of these simple processes—you have to teach them! Not enough can be said about the importance of cleanliness, proper handwashing and infection control.
Since 1968, Glo Germ™ has provided our customers with a fun and safe product that casts a revealing glow when exposed to Glo Germ's™ U.V. light, turning the invisible into “germs you can see!”

It’s Easy to Use!
The liquid or gel and the powder contain the plastic simulated germs, and the lamp illuminates them to test the effectiveness of your (and your workers’) practices.
For handwashing training, Glo Germ™ Liquid is rubbed onto one’s hands like lotion. For surface cleaning, dust Glo Germ™ Powder onto surfaces and generally throughout the entire area. Then wash your hands or clean the area as normal.
One’s hands and the surfaces appear clean. However, the ultra-violet light tells a different story. The discovery of the remaining germs will cast a new light on your cleaning effectiveness. Protect yourself, your customers, and your bottom line!
