SPECIALIST CONTRACTOR

TAKE YOUR PROJECT TO THE NEXT LEVEL

When it comes to the design and installation of a new ultraclean (UCV) operating theatre, the benefits of using a specialist contractor are wide ranging. Medical Air Technology (MAT) has been providing UCV systems for the NHS and private healthcare providers for nearly 40 years and has an engineering team that leads the field in innovative design.

UNIQUE LAY-UP CABINET

CREATING A SAFE, STERILE LAY-UP AREA

Medical Air Technology (MAT) has developed a unique self-contained lay-up cabinet, which provides an innovative solution to a difficult challenge. HTM 03-01 states that “laying-up in the clean zone is preferable for infection control reasons”, but this is not always possible due to limited space. Requiring only 1.4m of free wall space and minimal installation time, MAT’s lay-up cabinet, designed for operating theatre prep rooms, is the perfect solution when space is limited, but infection control essential.
