Product Information

Solo Bedpan Disposer

Stockcode:

Solo takes medical pulp disposal out of the sluice-room: small, safe and quiet to give greater convenience and effectiveness for carers, minimising disruption to patients.
With the smallest footprint of any bedpan macerator available, Solo can fit in the most convenient locations at your site. With the use of single use medical pulp items proven to significantly lower the risk of infections in a healthcare environment, the Haigh team have been at the forefront of ensuring that hospitals both in the UK and increasingly around the world can consistently and cost effectively dispose of this waste stream.
Solo disposes of a pulp product in under a minute, using 35% less water than other macerators and significantly less energy and water than washing systems; secure operation options also enables the disposal machine to be positioned in areas that may be accessible to patients such as en-suite rooms or other areas outside of the traditional sluice room.
