DISINFECTS MICROBES
As proven by studies, Hygio disinfection cabinets eliminate up to 99.999% of microbes. Hygio a40 Medi also disinfects stubborn sporulating microorganisms and molds in a single run of the program.
HYGIO TESTED
The materials used in the Topper by Image Wear first aid work clothing collection have been tested in connection with Hygio’s disinfection treatment. We recommend cleaning work clothing in a Hygio cabinet instead of washing with water if the clothing is free of visible dirt. The treatment spares materials and extends the service life of products.
BETTER OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY
In their work, paramedics are exposed to hazardous carcinogenic PAH compounds. Soot, smoke, and fuel odors possibly sticking to work clothing and equipment constitute an occupational safety and health hazard for the entire personnel. The Hygio treatment provenly reduces the amount of carcinogenic PAH compounds.
Due to its hectic and unpredictable nature, first aid is a very challenging work environment with a high risk of spreading infections. In the changing conditions of first aid, ensuring good hygiene and equipment safety is of particular importance, since work clothing and equipment are susceptible to pathogens and environmental contaminants.
With Hygio, keeping the paramedics’ clothing and equipment clean and ensuring patient safety is possible under any circumstances. Disinfection of work clothing and equipment in the Hygio cabinet is easy and effortless, and the treated goods are ready for use right away. Easy and frequent disinfection maintains a constantly high level of hygiene.
