Product Innovation of the Year Sponsored by 4i Water Services Ltd n Winner
AseptiFlow – Mueller Europe
AseptiFlow has no moving parts, no power supply, no consumables, and requires no maintenance schedule. It installs in minutes using standard plumbing connections and is compatible with most clinical basin configurations currently in use across the NHS estate. There is nothing comparable on the global market. No other product applies this principle. AseptiFlow is unique and is globally protected.
Highly Commended: AIR-OPTEVENT 2.0 – Air Handling Systems
Refurbishment Project of the Year
Sponsored by MJ Quinn n Winner
Isles of Scilly Hospital – Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust The original St Mary’s Community Hospital serves one of the UK’s most remote island communities, providing essential healthcare services across the Isles of Scilly, 28 miles off the Cornish coast. Renamed ‘Isles of Scilly Hospital’, this ‘project of a lifetime’ demonstrates integrated neighbourhood care in practice. A key
strength of the refurbishment is its use of modern construction methods. Offsite manufacturing enabled the 29-module building extension to be produced efficiently, significantly reducing the overall construction programme. This minimised disruption, reduced on-site waste, and ensured consistent quality. Highly Commended: Barnsley Health on the High Street – Barnsley Facilities Services
