Hands-free for hygiene

DDC Dolphin is inviting hospitals
to take part in a free three-month
trial of its new macerators: the
Pulpmatic Uno for single items and
the Ultima for multiple items.

The patented range of hands-free
macerators are opened by a footsensor
and an optical sensor closes
and starts them. This is said to make
them more convenient and hygienic
to use than other macerators, which
could help in the fight against HCAI
(Healthcare Associated Infections).

Both macerators feature dual
antimicrobial action, with the latest
silver nanotechnology in their lid
construction, as well as offering
automatic disinfection of the
internal maceration chambers.
