A New Development for Suppress
“SUPPRESS” ANTIMICROBIAL CASTORS AND WHEELS
Colson Castors recently launched their new range of Suppress castors and wheels helping hospitals win the battle against hospital-acquired infections, and will be showing these on stand D136 at NAIDEX exhibition at the NEC from 28th April to 1st May.
In a series of independent tests the new Suppress antimicrobial tyre compound was found to significantly reduce the potential for bacterial growth, in particular, strains of ‘Staphylococcus aureas’ and ‘Escherichea coli’.
New clinical trials have shown that Suppress also helps in the fight against the Clostridium Difficile bacterium that is often found in hospitals and healthcare environments.
This new Suppress wheel technology offers a cost-effective way of enhancing existing infection control procedures, and is now available for a variety of hospital equipment applications as well as playing a role in numerous other industries including food processing, janitorial and education etc.
