Since the corona pandemic, hand washing and disinfection have become an even more important concern in sanitation facilities in public places and kitchens (of restaurants, cafes, bars et cetera).
Maximum attention to hygiene and non-contact solutions are in high demand. However, preventing bacterial transmission comes with high water and energy consumption. It is now more necessary than ever to install sanitary products that meet the requirements of public areas.
For decades, DELABIE has offered the best solutions on the market for hand washing and disinfection in public washrooms and professional kitchens. From electronic faucets and soap dispensers to self-closing and mechanical faucets; all these products are designed to meet the highest hygiene requirements. For example, electronic faucets close automatically a few seconds after activation. No manual contact,
maximum hygiene assured.
DELABIE's SXS hand wash basins meet the highest hygiene standards. The mechanical versions guarantee hands-free use thanks to smooth knee operation. The electronic versions operate completely non-contact.
DELABIE electronic faucets offer an additional advantage thanks to the periodic flushing function. If the faucet is not used for a long period of time (closed plumbing, remote location, unoccupied hotel room et cetera), an automatic flush is realized every 24 hours after the last use. The water then circulates in the faucet and pipes, reducing the spread of bacteria. Some faucets can also be equipped with anti-stagnation electrovalves (DELABIE patent). End filters (Biofil) are also a preventive or curative solution to guarantee bacteria-free water.
Finally, another essential step in hand hygiene is drying. After all, the risk of transmitting bacteria is increased on wet skin. DELABIE's range of accessories offers many models of towel dispensers and holders made of bacteriostatic stainless steel, making them easy to clean.
The pandemic has generally tripled the frequency of hand washing and doubled the washing time. With a conventional faucet, the user sees gallons of water run off while lathering the hands, which can take up to 40 to 50 seconds for a proper hand wash. The overconsumption of hot and cold water has thus greatly increased and can reach nearly 60 liters of water per day per person. It is therefore high time to systematically install taps in all public places that not only guarantee maximum hygiene but also significant water savings. The ecological and economic challenge must not be lost sight of and remains crucial.
DELABIE solutions can save up to 90 percent water by phased use (faucet closes automatically after wetting and rinsing hands) and by limiting the flow rate to three liters instead of the usual nine liters.
The performance of DELABIE's electronic and self-closing faucets in terms of water and energy savings allows the best levels of existing environmental labels to be achieved. A requirement in new construction or renovation of buildings.
To sum up, DELABIE sanitary fixtures developed specifically for utilities meet other requirements in addition to perfect hand hygiene and optimal water conservation. Nowadays, public toilets also have to be beautiful, because the sanitaryware is often considered a signboard.
DELABIE, a rich history Georges DELABIE, sanitary wholesaler in Paris, takes charge of a foundry in Friville, located on the Somme, in 1927. Here he mainly develops faucets and floor siphons for bathrooms and kitchens. The following generations always strive to grow the family business, but want to preserve the identity of the brand and the [...]
