The Holworx® Scrub Wipes (Part Number: HCH0069) are a heavy-duty, waterless cleaning solution built specifically for professionals working in plant hire, tool hire, construction, engineering, maintenance and automotive trades. Each wipe features two distinct cleaning surfaces: a smooth side for lighter cleaning tasks and a textured scrub side for tackling stubborn, ingrained oil, grease and muck - the kind of contamination that standard wipes simply can't shift. Standard wet wipes are designed for light surface cleaning and lack the physical abrasion needed to shift in-ground workshop contaminants, and soap requires running water and does not effectively dissolve heavy grease or cured adhesives. The Holworx® Scrub Wipe solves both problems in a single product, delivering effective, no-rinse cleaning wherever your team is working.
On UK construction and plant hire sites, hand hygiene is not just best practice - it is a legal obligation. Frequent handwashing and satisfactory personal hygiene practices are essential for preventing cross-contamination and minimising the spread of harmful pathogens, and according to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), over 69,000 workers suffer from work-related ill health within the construction industry over a three-year period, with skin irritation and occupational skin diseases prevalent among construction workers.
Schedule 2 of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015) lists the welfare facilities that must be in place at any site, and where fixed washing facilities are unavailable - particularly on remote or temporary sites - waterless industrial wipes such as the Holworx® Scrub Wipe provide a practical, compliant solution. Supplied in a convenient pop-top tub of 80 wipes, these are the kind of welfare consumable that site managers, plant operators and mobile tradespeople reach for every day.

Why it Matters on Site The HSE notes that washing consumables such as soap and towels can quickly run out on construction sites, and recommends ensuring there are always enough spare supplies. Stocking Holworx® Scrub Wipes as part of your site welfare pack means workers always have access to an effective cleaning solution - even when welfare units are distant or facilities are temporarily unavailable. HSE regulations state that welfare facilities must include washing facilities such as wash basins with hot and cold running water, soap, towels, or other means of drying - and where fixed facilities are not accessible, portable wipe solutions directly support that requirement.
