UV zappers in Belgium to disinfect shopping carts

Using UV zappers to disinfect trolleys

is a new method in Belgium

Location: Namur

Shoppers take a cart

wheel it into a metal box

and close the door

The door pops open after ten seconds

with sanitized handles

(SOUNDBITE) (French) CUSTOMER, MIGUEL DUVAL (47) FROM NAMUR, SAYING:

"It is a solution that is fast and very practical. Before this, we were using a spray with a piece of paper to individually rub on the edge of each caddy.”

The new machine is now

under trial in three stores
