CASE STUDY: A Kentucky Airport Controls Bathroom Odor with Hospeco® Scensibles® Disposal Bag
How Scensibles® Bags Improved Restroom Hygiene and Traveler Satisfaction for a Busy Kentucky Airport
The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport is a fast-growing travel hub known for offering nonstop service to popular destinations from several budget-friendly airlines. Hundreds of thousands of passengers move through its concourses each month. Although women's restrooms were outfitted with receptacles for disposing of menstrual care products, accumulated odors created an unpleasant odor.
"Even when bins were emptied multiple times per day, odors would linger and permeate the restrooms,"
Rae Jean Chambers, Assistant Supervisor of Housekeeping
Airport housekeeping began using Scensibles® Personal Disposal Bags (SBX50).
Introducing Hospeco® Scensibles® Personal Single-Use Disposal Bags
Scensibles® personal single-use disposal bags are made expressly for disposing of sanitary pads, tampons, panty liners, and wipes. The easy-to-use bags with tie-handle closures completely conceal soiled products and are embedded with a fresh fragrance to mask odors and antimicrobial agents that inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria.
Dispensers containing Scensibles® Personal Disposal Bags were placed in each of the 130 bathroom stalls in 17-plus women's restrooms throughout the airport. They are also available in restrooms in the terminal's administrative and service areas. Three design elements of Scensibles® Personal Disposal Bags work together to solve the chronic odor problem plaguing airport restrooms: their sealing capability, fresh scent, and odor-fighting antimicrobial properties.
The reaction from travelers has been overwhelmingly positive. The cleaning crew's response has been highly favorable, too, as Scensibles® bags make emptying disposal bins faster, easier, and more sanitary.
"We see a lot of posts on social media about the Scensibles® bags. Our passengers appreciate them so much. We're going to keep using Scensibles®. This is not only a perfect solution but also a surprisingly affordable one."
Rae Jean Chambers
