New Hygienic Storage Options Announced


Teknomek has expanded its product range to provide more options for the storage and movement of materials in working environments where hygiene is paramount. The company now offers modular shelving, and has also launched new ranges of sterile goods baskets and trolleys, all are made with 304-grade stainless steel.


Sue Springett, Commercial Manager at Teknomek, said: “It’s easy to overlook what might be considered the more mundane support materials in the workplace. While a cleanroom, for example, might be at the forefront of your mind during an audit, it can be failed anywhere in a facility. Therefore, you need to ensure that your storage areas are also easy to keep clean and sterile goods can be moved appropriately, these new products meet those requirements.”


The new modular shelving is supplied with four slatted shelves as standard, this design makes cleaning straightforward. The product has also been developed with flexibility in mind; shelves are available in different sizes and can be placed to suit, each unit offers a maximum capacity of 12 shelves.


There are wheeled and static options, and corner bays to maximise static space. Mobile shelves come with either zinc-plated or stainless steel castors. The payloads provide heavy weight support: 600kg for stationary units and 240kg for mobile.


The company has also released a range of 304 grade general purpose trolleys, available with between two and five tiers (shelves). Supplied with two braked castors as standard, either with as BZP or stainless steel.


Considerable thought has been put into keeping these trolleys as unobtrusive as possible, as well as featuring quiet wheels, the shelves have been given a sound-absorbing lining.


To be used with the trolleys, Teknomek has also introduced new sterile goods baskets. The stackable versions come in seven sizes, five of which are compatible with many of the company’s trolleys, wall mounts and work stations for optimum working efficiency.

Sanitising Door Handles Help Keep Laboratories Pathogen Free


Teknomek’s sanitising door handles offer a new level of support for hygiene routines in the pharmaceutical sector. The new products automatically release virucidal hand gel when pulled, helping prevent pathogens from being brought into laboratories and sterile environments.


Sue Springett, Commercial Manager at Teknomek, explained: “The greatest challenge to establishing the type of business- wide hygiene culture that will satisfy MHRA auditors can come down to one factor hygiene managers have little direct control over - staff’s personal hygiene. While signage in key areas such as changing rooms and wash rooms goes some way to addressing this, you


cannot force people to wash their hands.


“By applying sanitising gel direct to a person’s hands through the simple act of opening a door, this system solves that problem once and for all. You cannot underestimate the value of boosting a company’s hygiene standards because the weakest point has been so comprehensively addressed.”


The sanitising gel used in the door handle eliminates MHRA, as well as other harmful viruses and bacteria including campylobacter and listeria. Independent swab testing found users’ hands were 87% cleaner after using the gel dispensing handles. It is non-perfumed and non-tainting and tested to EN1500, EN13727, 12054 and EN14476 (virucidal) for hand rubs.


Sue Springett concluded: “It’s sensible to place gel dispensing handles as a last line of defence at the entrance to clean rooms and other hygiene controlled areas.”
