The company is also known for state-of-the-art dispensing technology, engineered with attention to design and functionality.
Gojo serves a variety of markets with comprehensive skin health and hygiene solutions, including automotive, education, food processing, foodservice, healthcare, law enforcement, manufacturing and military.
“Saving lives and making life better through well-being solutions is our purpose at Gojo,” said Joe Kanfer, Gojo chairman and CEO. “This is seen through the continuous development of market leading hand hygiene solutions sold through facilities in the US, Europe, Japan and Latin America. It is also evident through the company’s caring and collaborative environment.”
