Here in time for flu season, this health-conscious device sanitizes shopping cart handles. From antibacterial soap company Lifebuoy, the sterilizing clip-on allows shoppers to disinfect the handle of the trolley to keep things clean in between customers.
The Lifebuoy Handle on Hygiene campaign was created in collaboration with Geometry Global. The refillable disc stores Lifebuoy liquid sanitizer and can also be branded to advertise sponsors. The gadget sits on one side of the shopping cart handle and is simply moved to the other side, coating the bar with disinfectant. It is 99.9% effective at killing germs as well. This makes it ideal all year round, but especially when cold weather hits and people are more likely to be carrying infectious illnesses.
