The wash glove comes packed ready-to-use and is suitable for auxiliary nurses, health care assistants or home helps and caregivers.
The Aqua Wash Glove is a single mitt made from a resistant non-woven embossed material and is very smooth for comfortable bathing. It is equipped with a plastic liner on the inside to avoid soiling the hand. It has been impregnated with a washing lotion that functions as a soap but doesn’t require any rinsing. It is perfectly safe for daily bathing, and great wash mitt for cleaning babies.
The lotion is dermatologically tested, hypo-allergenic, alcohol free and without soap meaning it is good for most skin conditions. The ingredients are: Aqua, glycerin, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Cocam idopropyl-betaine, Phenoxyethanol, Ethyhexylglycerin, Benzonic Acid, Dehydroacetic Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Parfum, and Citric Acid. The lotion dries on the skin and forms a protective layer.
Thanks to the convenience of everything needed for a wash being delivered in one simple glove, the soap less, waterless bathing delivers considerable benefits to home care, peripatetic care and health institutions:
- Efficiency – No need for bowls of water, soap and towels
- Discomfort reduction – Bathing time can be reduced by up to 50%.
- Budget saving – avoids necessity of cleaning bathrooms between patients, reduces laundry costs, staff time
- Bed sore prevention – less cutaneous irritation
- Psychiatric – eliminates any need to deal with fears of water
- Time saving – district and home care nurses can carry the Aqua Wash Glove easily with other daily equipment
The Aqua Wash Glove is specifically designed for a single use application to avoid cross contamination and should be disposed of as clinical waste.
Waterless bathing without soap, rinsing and drying also has non-medical uses. The Aqua wash glove is a very convenient solution for people who are constantly on the move and do not have access to bathroom facilities such as truck drivers, campers, hikers, soldiers and sailors. Thanks to the compact packet they are easily packed along with other luggage.
Aqua Wash Glove comes as a handy pack of 12 and is fully compliant with EU regulations.

Very useful!

My mother was very happy to receive these. Traveling has been a challenge for my mom who has ALS. Places that claim to be accessible are not for her. She can travel with confidence knowing that she has the Aqua Glove.
