Re: reusable adhesive

[Nicola Swindells]

Morning all,

I have recently been asked to not use sticky tape and use reusable
adhesive, any advice on what to use to hang posters.

Kind Regards

Morning all,

I asked the question many years ago and the answer I got was that it was
important to pick your battles. Not very scientific but at least it is
fairly low risk and can be thrown away and replaced as required.

Regards

Sara

Hi,
Does anyone know of any evidence around reusable adhesive(………-a
colour tac!!)being ‘an infection control risk’?
I was told yesterday of posters being being held up by this commonly
used material being removed because of the risk.
A Google search did bring up a few hits with the words ‘infection
control risk’ and said product being mentioned in the same breath.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Kind Regards
Sue

Nicola
We are not permitted to hang posters on walls either, so we have gone with a click frame, the posters can be changed and the frames can be wiped over. Happy to give further information off line if required.
