Hygeno
Custom image application now available with the INTAVISTA range!
Thoughtful product design can be instrumental to recovery in mental health applications. Adding artwork or imagery to door vision panels can be an ideal opportunity to add a splash of colour and vibrancy, helping to reduce that institutional impression.
A variety of artwork can be used, including customers own designs. Please contact us for further information.
INTAVISTA Privacy Panels
Blackout vs White Frost, Flush Fit, 250 x 800mm
A recent theatre refurbishment project at Southampton Hospital showcased excellent use of both Blackout and White Frost finishes, all within the same theatre suite.
In line with HTM guidance, privacy panels fitted between the theatre and surrounding prep rooms were specified as White Frost, to maximise light transmission through the hospital, however privacy panels fitted between the theatre and surrounding corridors were specified as Blackout, to reduce distraction to theatre staff from passing corridor foot traffic.
INTAVISTA
Blackout, Flush fit, Double handled (locking); 250 x 800mm
A number of laser shielding privacy vision panels were supplied with a unique lockable handle mechanism. Once the locking device was engaged, users on the corridor side of the doorsets were prevented from opening the laser blind and the lock could only be disengaged from inside the room.
Custom colour application now available to the IntaVista range!
Hygeno is pleased to announce that the IntaVista range can be specified in range of exciting new colours. This allows the colour matching of vision panels with door surfaces, or to correspond with the surrounding decor.
Hygeno’s vast array of handles are perfectly suited for any working environment, from cleanroom to mental health, to operating theatres and research laboratories.
Made from solid 316 grade stainless steel or an antimicrobial copper alloy - giving permanent high performance in the harshest of environments - all of our handles are precision made by a CNC machine, resulting in beautifully robust handles every time. Depending on the type of panel and the level of protection it offers, all our handles are designed to be suitable for either single or double-sided operation.
Every INTAVISTA or LASERBLOC unit (with an internal blind) is supplied with our versatile single peg handle. These same handles can also be supplied with double-peg’s, along with anti-ligature handles for the mental health market, or low profiled handles for when space is limited - often found in sliding doors.
When working in laser controlled environments, it is often necessary to have a handle on both sides of the panel to be able to control the risk. For this instance, a lockable handle can be attached to the laser-side of the panel, preventing it from opening during surgery and putting anybodies lives at risk. Alternatively, a microswitch can be added to the inside of the panel and linked up to the rooms control board, which in turn can stop the laser from working if the blind is in its open position, or send out a warning signal in the way of lights and sounds, to warn the staff to close the blind before starting.
There is also the option to etch your company logo or description onto the face of the handles, which allows for that personal touch and attention to detail that people often look for within a specific job or when a certain type of protection is offered.
