Hygiene supplies

UQ Procurement works closely with suppliers to ensure continued supply of:

hand sanitisers
chlorhexidine handwash
alcohol wipes
PPE items (masks, gloves and coverings).

These products have been evaluated to ensure they meet minimum specifications. You can purchase any of these items from the UQ Store in UQeMarket.

Face masks and personal protective equipment (PPE)

Face masks and PPE are available for University activities where a risk assessment has determined they are required. See advice on conducting a risk assessment (PDF, 242 KB). These items can be purchased through UQeMarket, and the purchase should be supported by a relevant safety risk assessment.

UQ does not provide face masks or PPE for general or personal use, including for commuting to and from campus, or circulating while on campus.

If you have an ongoing need for this equipment for University activities, please discuss these needs with your HSW Manager to ensure that forecasting of requirements remains accurate.

COVID-19 rapid antigen tests

Order COVID-19 rapid antigen tests (RATs) from UQeMarket. If the UQeMarket catalogue products don't meet your needs, seek alternatives elsewhere and obtain procurement approval if necessary. Refer to the Procurement Procedure Appendix 3 for more information about approvals.
