indentations. This design prevents the build-up of undesirable bacteria. The result is a simple-to-use product that is compatible with the typical cleaning agents and chemicals used within hospitals and hospices, and, with a quick release design, the Cable Koala can be reused time and time again once cleaned.
Innovation
As the healthcare sector adapts, so should we. All manufacturers need to be aware of how we can create products to offer an easier way of working. It’s important to produce the highest quality of products, knowing that customers can rely on their durability and safety. Now many industries are starting to adapt back to their usual ways of working in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may include stipulating personal protective equipment for personnel working in factories or the care industry until all traces of the virus have vanished. Seeing what the healthcare industry has been battling over the past 15 months, HellermannTyton has been researching and developing a range of healthcare products in order to provide comfort, and reduce the chance of germs spreading to those working in high-risk environments. Among the solutions available from us which are suitable for healthcare environments are the CTT-Series and
TBT-Series cable ties designed to form perfectly around the cylindrical shape of medical tubing.
Able to withstand sterilisation The ACB-Series comprises cable ties made with a high-performance polymer that can withstand repeated sterilisation processes by gamma irradiation and autoclaving. Also available in the range are the PT-Series ties, which offer a unique outside-serrated design, and the MGT-Series, which is made with antimicrobial materials, and is proven through testing to be effective against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.
Other new products within our healthcare range include the EasyDoor multi-function handle, and the Mask-E Guard, both designed to provide comfort and safety for those requiring personal protective equipment. The Mask E-Guard specifically relieves tension and strain from the ears when wearing a face mask. Infection prevention remains a critical issue in hospitals, and can be addressed by implementing more intelligent and innovative solutions. HellermannTyton is committed to working with the healthcare sector to ensure that its cable management solutions provide the safety needed for staff and patients in hospitals and other healthcare facilities.
