Clinical Faucet Wins Prestigious Design Award

Filed under: etc.

Keeping hands clean in the hospital is a bit more complicated and much more important thing to do than doing it at home. Nosocomial organisms can easily jump from clinician to clinician to patient via faucet handles and soap dispensers. Miscea B.V., out of Augsburg, Germany, won this year's red dot best of the best design award for its MISCEA touch-free faucet.

The touch-free operation concept of this innovative, clear and aesthetically designed hygiene system allows users to choose between water, soap and disinfectant with just one hand, thus preventing causative organisms from being accidentally transmitted and causing new infections. Operation of this faucet is self-explanatory and comfortable; choosing soap or disinfectant is interactively guided: a softly pulsating LED indicates whether the system is ready for use and each dispensing mode is accompanied by a light impulse. The design of this hygiene system thus merges a high degree of comfort with a maximum reduction of cross-contamination risk. With its elegant appearance the Miscea 3.1 Medical is designed for sensitive environments where strict hygiene is needed. It is suitable for use in medical and care facilities, as well as in the food processing industry where, with its elegant and sophisticated design, it signifies a valuable contribution to professional daily work – it sets new standards in realising hygiene with ease and style.
