In many businesses around town, it's common to see hand sanitizer. That's just one step many businesses are taking to ensure their employees and customers are stay healthy this flu season. It's also creating a lot of business for one company. They've been installing about 20 a week just about everywhere... (Gary Christian/Biomaster) "All kinds of businesses, retail stores, wholesale stores, car dealerships. There are numerous, just about, schools, nursing homes." These hand sanitizer dispensers are just another way businesses are protecting their employees and customers from coming down with the flu... (Ryan Barth/Bill Barth Ford, GM) "We are just being extra careful and make sure to take care. If our customers come in we dont want them to get sick and our employees. Its an important issue right now." Bill Barth's is just one business that has opted for the hand sanitizer dispenser. Biomaster's Gary Christian says this is the first year Biomaster has sold the product...and they've been doing a lot of selling. (Gary Christian/Biomaster) "Its really been good this year so far and the way it looks its going to continue to be real good because of the flu scare thats going on right now." Gary says a full dispenser has about 300 pumps. He also says that because it disperses as a foam, it lasts longer than the pure liquid sanitizers.
