Swisslog Introduces New Anti-Microbial Additive to Pneumatic Tube System Carriers
BacStop is an additive for pneumatic tube system carriers that offers effective protection against potentially infectious substances that could be transported within a hospital tube system.
Denver, CO (PRWEB) October 2, 2006 -- Swisslog, a leading provider of automated material transport systems for hospitals, introduces a new anti-microbial additive for pneumatic tube system carriers named BacStop. It is designed to offer effective protection against potentially infectious substances that could be transported within a hospital tube system.
BacStop is an optional additive for the TransLogic standard and Eco-Seal® leak-resistant carriers. BacStop is a silver ion anti-microbial agent molded within the body of the pneumatic tube carrier. Silver ions are gradually released and are drawn toward potentially infecting microbes, disturbing the microbe electric balance, and bursting the microbe cell walls, eliminating the threat. BacStop has been confirmed effective against more than 35 different bacteria, yeast and fungi. This advanced degree of protection is being applied in consumer products as well as within the healthcare industry. Anti-microbials are applied to medical instruments, hospital flooring, uniforms, masks and injury dressing.
Swisslog offers a new brochure that fully describes the benefits of BacStop. Contact Swisslog Customer Support at 800-396-9666 for a copy. Customers can order the new BacStop carriers by calling the number above or by email at orderentry@swisslog.com, or by visiting Customer Support online at www.swisslog.com, then click on Healthcare Solutions.
