Made from 304 stainless steel, the surface has the unique ability to react with oxygen in air and water to form an invisible protective layer which repairs itself instantly if scratched – a process called self-passivation. The surface can withstand any impact from daily use, as well as regular and intensive cleaning. It remains hard and smooth, with reduced bacterial retention due to its uniform, non-porous surface. Cleaning is therefore easier and more sustainable, requiring less cleaning product.
A highly versatile material, the stainless steel is rolled to 1.2 mm thick, and pressed to form a one-piece surgical trough with minimal seams. The surgical scrub-up trough’s ‘Hygiene +’ profile is optimised with rounded edges to prevent cuts, and there are no niches where dirt and bacteria can lodge, also facilitating cleaning. A further advantage is that when the trough finally reaches its end of life, the stainless steel can be readily recycled.
Delabie’s surgical trough also has a very practical aspect, featuring a concealed trap and concealed fixings, both enhancing the aesthetic and preventing unsolicited damage. The Hygiene + trough with low upstand is available in three sizes: 800 mm for 1 service, 1,600 mm for 2 services, and 2,400 mm for 3 services, while the high upstand model is slightly smaller (700 mm, 1,400 mm, or 2,100 mm). All feature a drainage point on the right, and there is no overflow that could otherwise harbour bacteria.
Every aspect of Delabie’s scrub up trough has been designed to maximise hygiene and reduce infection, while ensuring user comfort and safety. Able to withstand intensive daily use, the surgical scrub-up trough with satin stainless steel finish is hard-working and hard wearing
