Although they may not rank high on the list of our most popular topics for discussion, toilets are, nevertheless, of vital importance. No home, place of work or of entertainment can be without one and even most domestic dwellings today are likely to have at least two. Whether or not we are aware of the fact, worldwide, human beings spend billions each year in their attempts to turn their loos into sanitized and odour-free sanctuaries where, if they should choose, they can relax and enjoy the morning paper while attending to their essential bodily functions.
Aerosols both manual and automatic, bleach, rim blocks and cistern blocks are just some of the weapons in the armoury for use against unsavoury and unsanitary toilets yet, sadly, many of these fall far short of their claimed abilities and provide little more than a means of covering up the undesirable odours with something a little less offensive to the olfactory senses. By contrast, RemindAir Curve is a product that genuinely eliminates these offensive smells by destroying their root cause.
The toilet bowl is not only a source of bad odours but also of sprays and splashes with the potential to carry infective particles. As a result, the level of protection provided for use in this area must extend beyond mere deodorisation to include sanitisation also. Whereas this can be achieved, to some degree, with an occasional dose of bleach, for an ongoing safe and pleasant environment in the home or company washroom, an ongoing solution is vital. At the same time, the continuous use of chemical agents is known to have its own hazards both on the user and the environment. Today, a more environmentally friendly product is now rapidly becoming a priority for many consumers in South Africa and elsewhere around the world.
In terms of a rim-block type product, this would mean that it, in use, it should not release any harmful solutes into the flush water that might later pose a threat to the eco-system beyond and, when depleted, it should be completely recyclable. Available from “Above and Beyond Hygiene”, the RemindAir Curveis the perfect solution for those seeking in search of a fresh-smelling and hygienically clean toilet bowl without the need to forfeit their conservationist principles.
So what makes these devices so effective? Let’s begin with their air-freshening properties. These unobtrusive units come in four standard fragrances offering consumers a choice of Mango, Winter Green, Herbal Mint and Spiced Apple so there should be something to suit most. More importantly perhaps is their staying power. These units contain 30 times more air freshener than the standard rim block. This means that you can expect them to go right on performing for a good 30 days before you need to replace them.
A further bonus is the absence of harmful chemical content. Undesirable material is dealt with not by chemicals but by the use of living microbial agents. As in nature, these harmless, commensal organisms serve to breakdown particles of waste matter including, potentially harmful bacteria. The result is that the actual source of those nasty odours is destroyed. Fitted easily to the outside of most toilet bowls, the RemindAir Curveshrinks as it releases its active agents yet adds nothing to the effluent stream.
