HEALTHCARE ESTATES Electrical safety, infrastructure, and clinical items
Starkstrom, which has its UK office and manufacturing facility in Syston, Leicester, is in its 51st year of offering integrated solutions for the design, supply, installation, and commissioning, of electrical safety solutions for Group 2 medical locations, and infrastructure and clinical products to both NHS and private hospitals for operating theatres and Recovery, Critical Care, Emergency Departments, Endoscopy, and training facilities. The company said: “Starkstrom clinical pendants offer class-leading infection prevention, supplying medical gases, power, and data, to critical hospital locations. We are one of only a handful of companies manufacturing in the UK offering a full range of pendants, together with pneumatic and electromagnetic breaking for the pendant arms.” Service and aftersales are a key element
of Starkstrom’s philosophy; it provides whole-life support for its products, nationwide. Starkstrom added: “We have seen
considerable growth in demand for our infrastructure products. These include IPS, surgeons’ panels, and clinical pendants for
operating theatres, Endoscopy, Emergency, and Critical Care Departments.” Starkstrom is also the authorised distributor for KLS Martin operating lights and diathermy equipment, OPT Surgisystems operating tables, and the full range of Atmos Medical suction systems.
‘Passionate’ about preventing infection spread
Vernacare specialises in a wide range of medical solutions, and claims to have ‘revolutionised the experience for patients and healthcare professionals by pioneering industry-leading technologies’.
The company said: “We’re passionate about preventing the spread of infections, providing innovative healthcare solutions, and sustainable, reliable manufacturing in the UK. Our single-
use system for managing human waste through hospital macerators provides enhanced protection for patients, staff, and caregivers. The handling of potentially contaminated reuseable containers is eliminated via a hands-free sluice room operation. “Our macerators utilise patented SmartFlow technology, offering unparalleled performance. The Vernacare human waste disposal system helps ensure free-flowing drains and
safe contactless operation, to protect healthcare professionals, and help prevent infection transmission.” This year sees the launch of
Vernacare’s ‘most sustainable macerator to date’, the Vortex Air – which uses less water and energy than previous models, and features parts made from fully recyclable materials at the end of the unit’s life. The Vortex Air benefits from consistent sizing with existing Vernacare macerators, ensuring a smooth installation into hospitals looking to upgrade their sluice room solutions.
