FAQ

mini

The Sanikind Mini is made from 75% recycled ocean-bound plastic. This plastic is collected, cleaned and sorted in Haiti and Mexico before being repurposed and made into our Minis.

We source our ocean-bound plastic from a company in Haiti and another in Mexico. Both companies hire local residents to collect plastic bottles and waste that have been discarded within 50km of waterways. Such discarded plastic is categorized as ocean-bound because it is inevitably on it’s way to the ocean or other bodies of water if it weren’t for a demand for it to be reclaimed and reused.

A Sanikind Mini holds 1 ounce of hand sanitizer (aka about a month's worth of sprays for the average person with a refill).

The Sanikind Mini holds over 450+ sprays (aka about a month's worth of sprays for the average person with a refill). Spray away!

sanitizer

Due to the alcohol content in hand sanitizer it is considered a dangerous good. Many countries do not allow the importation of dangerous goods.

Our sanitizer is a liquid. Gel sanitizer will not work in our Mini as it does not spray.

Sanitizer spray is more versatile than traditional gel hand sanitizer. It can be used on surfaces, objects and hands.

Sure you can (as long as it's liquid and not gel)...but after using our awesome sanitizers, we don't think you'd ever want to use anything else.

Our hand sanitizer is made to the World Health Organization formulation #1 (80% ethanol, 1.45% glycerol, .125% hydrogen peroxide). This formula is recommended by the CDC and FDA.  

refills

Refill cans are made up of aluminum. Aluminum is one of the most recycled materials in the world. Over 70% of aluminum cans in the United States have been recycled. It is infinitely recyclable, whereas glass for example, can only be recycled so many times.

No, you do not have to use Sanikind sanitizer in our Mini (but we'll be heartbroken if you cheat on us with another sanitizer). You can technically use another brand or homemade sanitizer so long as it is liquid sanitizer. The Mini will not work with gel sanitizer.

A Sanikind Refill holds 8 fluid ounces of hand sanitizer. This will last the average user over a month.
