Does anyone know where I can find information on the colour coding system for cleaning chemicals i.e. red (bleach based) doesn't mix with green (ammonia based).

I recall seeing a patented system in the past but it is dim and distant.

I'm keen to use such a system as there are literacy and language difficulties with this particular group of workers. Also keen to hear whether it works.

Thanks

Hi Kim,
There is a colour coding system in cleaning which I know of but it deals with areas to prevent cross contamination eg red=sanitary toilets etc, blue=general areas, yellow=kitchen areas and green=first aid.
Another system may confuse further.
Hope this helps,
Jon
