Teal Patents, a manufacturer of portable hand wash units – each requiring no access to mains water or drainage – has been working in partnership with healthcare organisations and NHS infection control departments for more than 15 years providing units to meet specific requirements.
The newest model, the Teal Stop n’Wash, has been designed in
collaboration with infection control professionals in a bid to ensure it
meets their needs head on.
According to Teal, unlike any of its predecessors, it has been built to
educate and encourage the correct hand washing procedures. Featuring a
synchronised display, which takes users through the automatic program
and seven rubbing actions as laid down by NHS guidelines, it’s said to provide a 35 second hot water hand wash cycle.
Touch-free and automatic, the device has no levers or taps to re-infect
hands. Pathogen-safe, a hygiene cycle
using 500ppm chlorine solution is carried out every 24 hours.
