Equipment with Antimicrobial Copper Surfaces

Equipment

Touch surfaces in a healthcare facility are well recognized as a potential source of bacteria transmission.

Using CuVerro® copper alloy on high-touch surfaces, such as transport stretcher railings or IV poles, as a supplement to your standard infection control practices, will help inhibit build-up and growth of bacteria that causes infection and poses risk to the health of both your patients and staff.
