The Fitzpatrick Hotel Group installs HYSO’s door handle sanitizers in the restrooms of its New York hotels.

March 28, 2007 -- HYSO, a revolutionary hygienic solutions company, is pleased to announce a partnership with The Fitzpatrick Hotel Group to install HYSO automatic door handle sanitizer units on the public restroom doors in the Fitzpatrick Group’s New York hotels. Both Fitzpatrick Hotels and HYSO are committed to educating the public and providing scientifically proven, cost-effective ways to continuously improve hygiene in public areas.

“Research has determined that upwards of 100 different bacteria can live on a door handle for up to three days. When you consider the number of people that often utilize public restrooms, it is no wonder that public restroom door handles can present unique challenges to maintaining good hygiene. Up until now, we have never had a viable solution to this very real issue,” says Simon Sassoon, Managing Partner at HYSO. “HYSO offers the only solution that is nearly 100% effective.”

John Fitzpatrick, CEO of Fitzpatrick Hotel Group, adds, “We are very happy to have partnered with HYSO and their revolutionary new product. It is of major importance to us that our much valued hotel guests, visitors to the hotel and employees enjoy as healthy and hygienic an environment as possible. This product addresses a very common but under attended to area of hygiene. Fitzpatrick Hotels is pleased to utilize this unique product to ensure the health of our visitors and enhance their overall travel experience.”
