Hibiwash® is an antimicrobial full body wash with 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate and emollients, designed to keep patients' skin protected from a wide range of microorganisms while being gentle on the skin. Hibiwash® is your trusted partner in helping prevent infections, promote skin's integrity and save time before performing surgical procedures. It contains 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate for a wide range of antimicrobial activity and has been used for many decades in hospitals. Hibiwash® is not absorbed into the skin, but binds to it to form a protective layer that removes and kills microorganisms and continues to do so for a long period of time after application. Unlike Povidone Iodine, Hibiwash® is not inactivated by bodily fluids. Hibiwash® has been reformulated to be a more sustainable product, using fewer raw materials and less energy in its production. The removal of colour, fragrance and traces of soya oil makes it less likely to cause irritation or an allergic reaction and has the potential of an increased compliance. It also contains emollients and is gentle on the skin, even with frequent use.
