Ultimate protection

Patient safety in hospitals is of vital importance, especially in high-risk areas such as hematology, oncology, burn units and intensive care units. One of the main concerns is the risk of bacterial infections which
can be caused by microbiologically contaminated shower and tap water. Waterborne pathogens can accumulate in biofilm located within the plumbing system, even if a hospital disinfects water at the point-of-entry (POE). The pathogens can then be transmitted to patients when the water is used for their care.

Extended service life

Norit Filtrix developed a new generation of point-of-use (POU) membrane filters for shower heads and water faucets designed specifically for use in medical facilities. The Norit H2OK Medical ShowerFilter and the Norit H2OK Medical TapFilter provide easy and reliable protection at the last possible moment before patient contact. The Norit H2OK Medical Filters guarantee bacteriallogically safe water for five weeks, which is close to 15% longer than the market standard.
