Carekorp’s range of antimicrobial treated basins, hand rails and shower seats have been specifically designed for aged and healthcare environments and can play an important role in aged care infection control strategies to help reduce the risk of cross contamination. Bathrooms harbour potentially high levels of bacteria. Research shows the most contaminated area is the basin followed by taps and handrails. By improving the hygiene of key high touch point surfaces our antimicrobial products help make those spaces easier to keep hygienically clean. Also the proprietary antimicrobial technology is embedded in the product during manufacturing does not; wear out, wash off, or switch off and is effective for the lifetime of the product.

Carekørp recently installed anti-microbial bathrooms throughout Harbison Care Dementia Cottages and the CEO – David Cochran had this to say: “One of the greatest challenges we face in aged care is infection control and we take the responsibility of reducing the risk of cross contamination very seriously.” “It gives us peace of mind that the antimicrobial technology, which is embedded in the product, is always working around the clock.”
