Hygiene Condition Of Textiles At Econo Hotel Is Worrying.

HC scrubbing network recently launched a nationwide joint campaign with sina, Huicong cleaning network and Huicong hotel network. "We need truth and public concern."

The pain of product hygiene is a large-scale public welfare activity in the survey of hygienic condition of hotel textiles.

Yang Ligang, general manager of Huicong cleaner network, said that the launch of the event was due to the hygiene situation of many Econo Hotel textiles.

According to Yang Ligang, Huicong staff began to spend six months in February 2012. The whiteness, pH, odor and foreign bodies of 204 textiles in Econo Hotel, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Qingdao and other places were tested. Among them, 136 sheets had a pH value of more than 8, showing a partial alkalinity; 153 pillowcases pH value was more than 8, showing a partial alkalinity; 170 towels had a pH value of more than 8, showing a partial alkalinity; 17 bath towels pH below 5, showing a partial acidity; 153 towels had a pH value of more than 8, showing a partial alkalinity.

Nearly 80% of the hotel's textiles are seriously overweight, and some samples even have reached 10.

PH value, pH value, means that detergent is not rinsed or washed with cheap industrial caustic soda. It causes skin irritation, itching, and may even cause cancer.

According to an industry expert who has been engaged in the washing industry for 40 years, in 1997, he stayed in a Japanese hotel with a Japanese regiment. After finishing his stay, several people complained that he had red blister on his body. At that time, he had a test tool and tested the hotel textiles. The result showed that his pH value was particularly high, which had exceeded 9, and chlorine was particularly high.

"Many high star hotels will have their own laundry or professional laundry. Many famous brands and high star hotels have their own stringent testing standards for textile cleanliness.

But most of the Econo Hotel is sent out for washing. Because of the serious disorderly competition in the washing industry, many Econo Hotel even choose inexpensive factories or workshops to make textile hygiene impossible to guarantee.

Wang Chaoyi, who has served as the laundry supervisor of Beijing Jianguo Hotel and the principal of the training school of sunshine fine group, told reporters that professional washing agencies are often checked by sanitation and epidemic prevention stations, but the textiles washed out of non-standard factories or workshops are unsupervised.

"In the washing industry, there is a normal practice of" dry drying and scalding ", that is, the hotel sends sheets, towels, some washing enterprises first look at dirty dirty, if it is not dirty, almost wash, direct drying, ironing, packaging.

Gao Wenyue, the responsible person of Procter & amp; laundry, said that the competition in the washing industry is serious.

Some non-standard laundry factories offer a price of 0.8 yuan to 0.9 yuan for a bed sheet. The highest price is not more than 1.2 yuan.

But the cost of a single bed light should be 1.6 yuan to 1.8 yuan if it is washed according to the true standard process.

But in order to save costs, many hotels tend to choose low price washing, the formal laundry business is gloomy, and some even close down.

"The data collected by Huicong is limited. If we mobilize the enthusiasm of the public to become our" healthy person ", we will attract the attention and attention of the hotel.

Yang Ligang said that the main purpose of hicong's launch was to attract public attention through the event, and to collect and publish more authentic, more detailed and authoritative data on the hygienic condition of Hotel Textiles so as to supervise the government and related activities.

The management department has strengthened supervision over the development of the hotel industry and the washing industry, and urged the hotel to strengthen self-discipline and the practitioners in the washing industry to get rid of the low price competition and win by quality.

It is reported that the application to become HC's "health daring" can be sent to hicong's official website to submit personal information. It promises to use PH test paper to assist HC to complete the standard sample test, and enter the official micro-blog and @ HC clean network to forward the relevant information or participate in the activity review.

"Every 1000 increase in health, we will draw 3 lucky winners. When the health reaches 10000 people, 5 lucky winners will be awarded."

Yang Ligang also hoped that the public could raise awareness of their health by participating in the event.

The pH value is a measure of the pH value of water. It is also called the hydrogen ion concentration index and acid base value. It is a scale of the activity of hydrogen ions in the solution, that is, the standard of acid and alkali in the usual sense.

Its range is 0-14, pH<7 is acidic, the smaller the more acidic, pH=7 is neutral, pH>7 is alkaline, the greater the alkalinity is, the stronger.

Generally speaking, the pH value of people's daily water is neutral. When adding detergent, the acid-base will change.

At present, the pH value has become
