Welcome to
Hospitals
Envac’s system removes waste in a hermetically sealed pipe system, hidden in the fabric of the hospital, behind walls, under floors, and in culverts. This eliminates the need to transport used materials on trolleys or carts limiting the risk of potential accidents and Hospital Acquired Infection. The Envac system creates a more sanitary environment while reducing operational costs.
Reducing spread of infection
Collecting waste, laundry and infectious waste with the Envac system reduces physical contact between people and dirty material to a minimum.
The waste and laundry are transported through separate closed pipe networks instead of on carts in corridors and elevators, which creates a safer environment for patients, staff, and visitors.
The closed systems and touchless waste inlets also minimize the spread of infections, direct transmission, and accidents.
One system – but several pipe networks
The Envac set-up for hospitals is slightly different to our common system.
To tackle the challenges of clean and safe removal of laundry, waste, recyclables and now infectious waste, the four are transported through separate pipe networks while still remaining in the same system.
The inlets can be fitted with touchless technology that uses sensors for access control. The sensors recognize if it is waste, recyclables, laundry, or infectious waste, that is being disposed of.
Without any physical contact with buttons, handles, or panels to dispose of the waste, the spread of infections is minimized.
Our system removes the need to transport laundry in trolleys or carts outside the ward, minimizing the spread of germs and bacteria as well as reducing operational cost.
Cost-efficient
Reducing manual handling of laundry and waste is not only beneficial from a health perspective, but it is also cost-efficient. The automatic transportation of our pneumatic waste collection reduces the need for a large workforce of orderlies and hospital attendants to transport and sort laundry and waste. Less waste transportation with carts in corridors and culverts also reduces the wear and tear of the hospital building which means less maintenance cost.
Our system is integrated in the walls, floors, and culverts of the hospital building and removes the need to transport laundry in trolleys or carts, minimizing the spread of germs and bacteria as well as reducing operational cost.
Ecology and hospital image
For any hospital, patient and staff welfare is crucial, but hospitals also can play their part in a more sustainable future. The Envac system can be designed to handle several waste fractions within the hospital.
Our system also removes the unsightly manual transport of waste and laundry throughout the hospital, providing patients and visitors with a better experience of the hospital. An eco-friendly hospital environment with state of the art technology attracts both top health care professionals and patients.
