Active Bio-Hazard Protection from Easy-Fit Panel System Speeds

Construction of Labs, Medical and Catering Facilities

A new range of large GRP panels with an active ingredient for bio-

hazard reduction has been introduced by plastics fabricator

Octaveward. These address the critical need for robust hygiene in

medical facilities, laboratories, clinical manufacturing, food

process and catering. The large panels are easy to install so fit-

out projects are quickly finished and facilities made ready to use.

The panels are effective against a broad spectrum of micro organisms

including bacteria, fungi and algae. Bacterial control includes

Klebsiella Pneumoniae, E. Coli, MRSA, Salmonella Choleraesuis and

other pathogens. Virtually seam free and resilient enough to

withstand industrial use, the panels eliminate the gaps found in

tiling and are far more attractive than grey stainless steel.

Installed in a single fast-track process, the panels save time at

the critical fit-out project phase when deadlines become compressed

and delays can be costly.

The secret of the Octaveward panels is a compound embedded in the

polymer. This means that the antimicrobial action is permanent and

is unaffected by cleaning operations. The compound used in the

panels is accepted and registered with the US Environmental

Protection Agency.

Octaveward's bio-active panels can be fitted to doors where frequent

hand contact often causes bacteriological transfer. Panels can be

made with any permanent colour required. This enables colour to be

used to signify special hazards or designate particular areas. Text

or messages can be permanently embedded in the panels.

The Octaveward hygienic panel system is not an alternative to

thorough and effective cleaning programmes. It provides an

additional measure of protection between cleaning cycles for

critical areas. Full panel specifications and advice on the

bacterial control given against specific organisms are available

from the company on 01254 773300.
