No-Tray High Chair
Is your child’s no-tray high chair a health hazard? <br>Parents are becoming increasingly aware of unhygienic high chairs, both in restaurants and at home. <br><br>As a Daily Mail Online news article recently highlighted, a report conducted on UK restaurants by Microban, makers of antibacterial products, found that “while some of the high chairs were relatively clean, others had concentrations of bacteria as high as 1,200 bacteria per square centimeter, which is worrying.” <br><br>Our top 5 tips to avoid a high chair health hazard: <br><br>1. Get an easy-to-clean high chair. Anything with cloth, padding or complicated structures usually gets very dirty very quickly. Simple wooden or plastic highchairs with few or no crevices are ideal. <br><br>2. Ensure you clean all high chair surfaces regularly, particularly the seat area, and ideally after each use. <br>They must also be cleaned thoroughly, not just wiping away obvious stains and spills. <br>We recommend anti-bacterial wipes or sprays which are widely available. <br><p><a href=”http://www.pumastoreonline.org/puma-ferrari-shoes-c-32.html”>puma ferrari</a></p><br>3. Consider a no-tray design. Trays can harbour many bacteria and are usually more difficult to clean than a table surface. <br>A 2007 Hygiene Council study discovered that 60 per cent of high chair food trays in the home held Coliforms – bacteria that indicate a surface has been contaminated by faecal matter, raw meat, soil or unwashed vegetables. <br><br>4. Use high chairs with replaceable straps and belts. Clean and / or replace washable parts regularly. All straps, harnesses and seat belts will get dirty with use, so either wash them or just order replacements. <br>A dirty crotch strap or safety belt looks awful and is probably full of bacteria too. Keep them clean! <br><br>5. Store the chairs in a clean, safe place when not in use. <br><br>Remember – as parents we care about our children, protecting them and keeping them safe. Keeping your high chairs spotlessly clean will help keep them that way. <br><br>Daniel Broude, buyer at Gondola Group, whose restaurant chains include family favourites such as Pizza Express, ASK and Zizzi’s, recommends the No-Tray High Chair: <br>
