November 2024: Purifas continues to innovate, revolutionising healthcare practices remains a top priority. Our research is pivotal in driving advancements that improve hygiene, reduce environmental footprints and lower hospital operating costs. We recently showcased our findings at the British Medical Journal’s Forum on Safety and Quality in Healthcare in Brisbane. Sustainability in healthcare was a key focus, and our presentation highlighted the benefits of Purifas’ single-use linen. Our recyclable hospital linen addresses challenges such as reducing pathogen transmission, minimising environmental impact and lowering financial costs, contributing to a sustainable healthcare future.

So much so that healthcare facilities have been slowly moving away from using shared, reusable items. Clinical research proves that reusable products can harbour harmful pathogens and microbes, despite being cleaned or laundered — a serious health risk for both patients and staff.
