During this pandemic period, hand washing and disinfection are very important for those who use public toilets, such as those at campsites. Delabie – a French family-run company specializing in water management and sanitary equipment for public and commercial places – offers five specific ranges of products for this market. Among them, we find electronic mixers, taps and dispensers of soap or hydroalcoholic gel with automatic dispensing and timed or mechanical solutions for the flow: all designed to meet the highest requirements in terms of hygiene. The aesthetic aspect should not be underestimated. The washbasins, dispensers and taps are also carefully designed from the point of view of design.
No manual contact
Delabie timed flow faucets automatically close a few seconds after being activated, leaving enough time to wet or rinse your hands, while the electronic ones close when your hands are removed from the detection zone. In this way there is no contact, guaranteeing maximum hygiene and safety.
During the Corona pandemic, the frequency of hand washing tripled, and the time taken doubled. With a conventional tap, if the user does not have the warning to turn it off, the water continues to flow during the soaping, which can last between 40 and 50 seconds for a thorough hand washing. As a result, excessive water consumption is significant and can amount to nearly 60 liters per person per day. Delabie solutions can provide water savings of up to 90%, as they automatically close the tap after washing and also limit the flow to 3 liters instead of the usual 9 liters.
Hand drying
The last fundamental step in hand hygiene is drying, which, if done incorrectly, increases the chances of spreading bacteria. The risk is greater for moist skin than for dry skin. The Delabie range of accessories includes numerous models of paper towel dispensers and waste containers, made of bacteriostatic stainless steel and easy to clean.
In conclusion, the French company’s products, developed specifically for public and commercial places, not only guarantee perfect hand hygiene and substantial water savings, but also resist vandalism and intensive use.
