A hospital in Nottingham report that the use of disposable curtains aids them in the management of cleanliness on their wards and that changing curtains is now a pleasure rather than a chore.
Marlux disposable curtains are an important element of a hospital’s fight against infection, conventional curtains are difficult and time consuming to change and expensive to launder.
Marlux disposable curtains:
• Designed to support infection control measures by making it both economical and easy to change curtains as required
• Improved patient environment with a fresh, clean appearance
• No laundry costs
• Lower labour costs due to the speed and ease of fitting
• Existing track can be easily adapted
• Available in a range of opaque colours to ensure patient privacy
The disposable curtains are manufactured from a polypropylene fabric, which will not support bacterial growth. The batch traceable Marlux® curtains are flame retardant to BS5867-2 Type C and fully recyclable. Each curtain comes in a protective sleeve with pre-fitted hooks, and can be taken down and refitted in 2-3 minutes per bed space. Specially designed labelling enables each ward to monitor how often the curtains have been changed.
