What is a hygiene entrance?

A hygiene entrance is a means for ensuring the personal hygiene of employees and visitors of companies. The hygiene entrance is usually installed at the entrance to a company so that hygiene requirements can always be complied with before somebody enters the shop floor.


Hands and the soles of footwear are cleaned and disinfected in the hygiene entrance. In many companies, the hygiene entrance is an important step for ensuring the food safety of products, for example.

Design of a Hygiene Entrance

The design of a hygiene entrance varies by organization and is always tailored to individual preferences and needs. Consider, for example, the number of users, the desired hygiene process, and how the entrance fits into the space.

In most cases, the hygiene entrance is equipped with an access control system to ensure that employees clean and disinfect their hands and boots before entering the production area.

Hand Cleaning and drying in the hygiene entrance

The ultimate combination for a hygienic work process is hand washing, drying and disinfecting in combination with sole cleaning and disinfection.

Hand cleaning is often done through washing and disinfecting because washing on its own is not enough. Between these two steps, the hands are dried; this can be done with the help of a paper towel dispenser or an electric hand dryer.

A paper towel dispenser is often a suitable solution for very small companies, while at larger companies the Dyson Airblade is a faster, more hygienic and more cost-effective solution over the longer term.

Sole Cleaning in the Hygiene Entrance

Shoe soles carry visible and invisible dirt on them. It is therefore important to clean the soles before entering the production area.

The soles can be cleaned with rotating brushes and/or a disinfection bath. A disinfection bath is mostly used in hygiene entrances for a high care space, while rotating brushes are often enough for a production area.

All hygiene entrances from Elpress come with facilities for disinfecting the hands and cleaning the soles of footwear. There are even wider areas where a shaft cleaner can be used to thoroughly clean the edges and shafts of boots; you can optionally choose an integrated Dyson Airblade for drying the hands. The food-safe hygiene entrance is capable of cleaning the soles and disinfecting the hands at the same time, allowing your staff to pass quickly and efficiently through the cleaning process and save time. Access to the next room is possible only once the hands have been disinfected. You are therefore assured of controlled access at all times.
