ClickCleaning stocks barrier creams that provide essential skin protection for workers and residents in challenging environments. Whether you're dealing with frequent handwashing, exposure to cleaning chemicals, incontinence care, or industrial contamination, proper barrier cream can prevent skin problems before they start.
Barrier creams aren't luxury items - they're practical protection that saves money by preventing skin problems that are expensive to treat and uncomfortable to live with. In care environments, good barrier cream prevents pressure sores and incontinence-related skin damage. In industrial settings, it protects against dermatitis and chemical exposure.
Our barrier cream range focuses on proven formulations: Medicated Barrier Cream for therapeutic protection and healing, and Scrubb Super Protect Pre-work Barrier Cream for industrial and workplace protection. Both provide genuine skin protection rather than just moisturising.
Medicated Barrier Cream provides therapeutic protection that's particularly valuable in healthcare and care environments. The medicated formulation helps protect skin whilst supporting healing of existing irritation or damage. Available in 300ml pump bottles for individual use and 5-litre bulk containers for institutional applications.
The 300ml pump bottles are perfect for personal use, small care homes, or individual healthcare settings. The controlled dispensing helps ensure appropriate application whilst preventing waste and contamination.
The 5-litre bulk container provides excellent value for busy care environments, hospitals, or anywhere barrier cream is used regularly by multiple people. Bulk containers reduce packaging waste and ensure consistent supply during high-demand periods.
Medicated formulations include active ingredients that help soothe and protect damaged skin whilst preventing further irritation. This makes them particularly valuable for people with existing skin problems or those at high risk of developing skin issues.
Scrubb Super Protect Pre-work Barrier Cream is designed for workplace protection, creating a protective barrier that helps prevent contamination from penetrating skin whilst making cleanup easier. The 1-litre container suits workshop and industrial environments where multiple workers need access.
Pre-work application is key to effectiveness - the barrier cream needs to be applied before exposure to create a protective layer. This approach prevents
problems rather than just treating them after they occur.
The formulation is designed to resist water, oils, and common workplace contaminants whilst remaining comfortable to wear during work activities. It doesn't interfere with grip or dexterity but provides invisible protection against chemical exposure.
Professional applications for barrier creams include healthcare environments where frequent handwashing can damage skin, care homes and nursing facilities for incontinence-related protection, industrial workplaces with chemical exposure risks, food preparation areas where frequent washing is required, and cleaning operations where staff handle chemicals regularly.
Barrier cream works by creating a protective layer on skin that prevents irritants from direct contact whilst allowing skin to breathe and function
normally. Quality barrier creams form an invisible barrier that doesn't interfere with normal activities.
Application technique affects effectiveness significantly. Clean skin provides the best base for barrier cream application, use enough cream to cover all exposed areas but avoid excessive amounts that feel greasy or interfere with grip, and reapply after handwashing or when the protection feels diminished.
Skin condition monitoring is important when using barrier creams regularly. While they prevent many problems, existing skin damage might need additional treatment alongside protective measures.
Healthcare applications include protection against frequent handwashing damage, prevention of incontinence-related skin problems, wound area protection during healing, and general skin protection for residents with fragile or compromised skin.
Industrial applications focus on preventing dermatitis and chemical exposure damage, making clean up easier after exposure to oils and contaminants, protecting against repeated water exposure that can cause skin problems, and providing backup protection when gloves aren't practical or fail.
Cost effectiveness includes preventing expensive skin treatment costs, reducing sick time from dermatitis and skin problems, improving comfort and
productivity for workers and residents, and avoiding the complications that untreated skin problems can create.
Storage requirements for barrier creams include keeping containers sealed to prevent drying and contamination, storing in moderate temperatures to maintain consistency, and ensuring easy access where protection is needed most.
Quality control ensures consistent formulation and protection levels across different batches. Professional barrier creams maintain their effectiveness
throughout their shelf life when stored properly.
Training on proper application techniques helps maximise effectiveness whilst preventing waste. Users should understand when to apply barrier cream, how much to use, and signs that indicate they need additional skin protection measures.
Regulatory compliance in healthcare and food service environments may require specific barrier cream formulations or application procedures. Professional facilities should ensure their chosen products meet relevant standards for their specific applications.
Integration with other skin protection measures includes using barrier creams alongside appropriate gloves and protective equipment, combining with
proper handwashing techniques, and coordinating with any prescribed skin treatments or medications.
