Features
The Vacudes® PL steam disinfection system is designed to deliver reliable healthcare bed decontamination and hospital linen disinfection, supporting infection control in modern healthcare environments.
Engineered specifically for bedding stations, this high-capacity solution enables safe, automated medical bedding decontamination of mattresses, textiles and bed equipment. By using validated steam disinfection processes, Vacudes® PL helps hospitals reduce contamination risks and maintain consistent hygiene standards across reusable patient-contact materials.
Protecting Patients from Infection Risks
In healthcare environments, contaminated bedding and mattresses are a recognised vector for pathogen transmission, including multi-resistant organisms.
The Vacudes® PL provides a robust hospital bedding hygiene solution, using controlled steam processes to effectively deactivate microorganisms—including bacteria, fungi, viruses and spores—helping facilities strengthen their hospital laundry infection control strategy.
