[French] Hydro-alcoholic gel Hygienic treatment and Surgical disinfection of hands by friction

This tender, sourced from TED and originating in France, focuses on the procurement of 'Gel hydro-alcoolique Traitement Hygiénique et Désinfection Chirurgicale des mains par Friction', which translates to alcohol-based hand rub gel for hygienic treatment and surgical hand disinfection by friction. The contracting authority is seeking a supplier for this essential hygiene product, likely for healthcare facilities, public institutions, or workplaces. Typical requirements for such a product include high alcohol content (e.g., 70-85% ethanol or isopropanol) to ensure effective antimicrobial action, compliance with relevant European standards for disinfectants (e.g., EN standards), and dermatologically tested formulations to minimize skin irritation. The product should be suitable for both routine hygienic hand antisepsis and pre-surgical preparation. Bidders are expected to provide products with clear labeling, safety data sheets, and evidence of efficacy. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on product quality, compliance with health and safety standards, packaging (e.g., bottles, dispensers), availability, and price. This procurement is vital for maintaining high standards of hygiene and infection control.
