What can we do to make a baby changing station much more hygienic?
The most hygienic baby changing station in the world
As babies don't have fully developed immune systems, they are more susceptible to infections caused by viruses and bacteria. This risk of infection increases in public restrooms, especially if these places are not adequately and regularly disinfected.
In the case of such an essential piece of equipment for babies in a public restroom as diaper changers, at Mediclinics, we asked ourselves the following question: What could we do to make our Babymedi wall-mounted baby changing station, already secure with Biocote© technology, even more hygienic? The answer was clear and straightforward: Ion Hygienic© technology.
What is Ion Hygienic© technology?
Ion Hygienic© is a technology based on the generation of negative ions through an ionizer. Ionizers are electrical devices that, by generating these negative ions, can transform stale or contaminated air into pure air and help disinfect surfaces.
How does it work?
The negative ions released by the ionizer, with the help of positive ions in the air, through electrostatic attraction, form groups around micro-particles like mold, viruses, bacteria, and dust mite allergens in the air and deactivate them through a chemical reaction. Thanks to this chemical reaction, the virus or bacteria remains inactive forever.
When is the ionizer activated?
The disinfection process starts as soon as the BabyMedi© changing station is closed. At that moment, an electronic sensor detects the closure of the baby changing station, and the entire process is activated. It should be noted that, although Ion Hygienic© technology is completely safe for the baby, the system stops entirely for safety reasons if the ionizer is running and the baby changer is opened in the middle of the cycle.
How can we be sure it works?
Ion Hygienic© definitely works, as it has been tested and approved by TÜV Rheindland in their laboratories in Germany, as evidenced by their test report number 603229708-001.
In summary, Ion Hygienic© technology is entirely safe for babies' health because it is harmless and has the ability to kill harmful microorganisms found on baby changing stations. Ion Hygienic©, along with the antimicrobial additive Biocote©, make BabyMedi© changing stations the most hygienic on the market because no other in the world incorporates these two successful disinfection technologies together.
