ObTek - improves hand hygiene every time

We will deliver positive impact on human wellbeing, productivity & contribute to mitigating risks in society such as virus outbreaks (like COVID-19) and the rise of resistant bacteria. Our business is to help people wash their hands excellent. Society, workplaces & the individual wants the least possible illness as it affects work / life quality and the bottom line. However, studies show that up to 95% wash their hands insufficiently with the result of leaving bacteria on the hands. And with the COVID-19, hygiene is more than ever a globally recognised issue. Literature describes that focus on hand hygiene can reduce absenteeism at work by 10%, which we also expect with our solution. Improved hand washing will fight diseases and it will support and strengthen communities in improving water and sanitation management. The product we have developed, Ob-2, is a solution that reduces the water flow for 15 sec. when the user takes soap and nudges to perform an effective hand wash. It is a hardware product that is installed on an existing faucet and soap dispenser. This version has been tested and sold to kindergartens.
The scientific framework behind Ob-2 is the correlation between how long time the hands are exposed to soap combined with scrubbing and a reduction in dangerous bacteria & viruses on the hands. This is supported by studies that shows that reduction in absence due to infectious disease, can be reduced 25% - 31% by interventions that increase handwashing quality and frequency.
