Following a notification sent throughout NHS healthcare estates in 2018 where a number of adverse incident reports had been received where integrated plumbing systems (IPS) Panels have detached accidentally from the wall and fallen. In two of the reported incidents, injuries were received to persons that required clinical attention. In all reported incidents the panels were only retained with concealed plastic push fit clips.
Healthcare IPS units have always been installed with durable, zinc plated hinged door access to eliminate this potential danger. No reported general wear and tear on the fixing or warping of the panels ensures regular maintenance is not only straightforward but more importantly safe. No lift off panels also means no joints, the perfectly smooth hygienic cladding means cleaning protocols have never been easier to adhere to.
Healthcare IPS ranges are tested to the highest standards of hygiene & durability. The integrated plumbing system complies entirely with Health Technical Memoranda 68 (HTM 68)
Bringing hygiene, aesthetics, safety, practicality and ease of installation together.
