The first Antimicrobial automatic pill dispenser from Pivotell

From SPRING 2018 new Pivotell Advance and Mk3/11 dispensers will incorporate a premium silver ion technology that is introduced during the manufacturing stage to provide the ultimate protection against harmful microbes such as bacteria, mould and even viruses.

Antimicrobial technology makes the dispenser inherently more hygienic and addresses a recognised problem within carousel medication delivery: cross contamination. Crucially, the devices are now easier to keep hygienically clean for the patients, their family and visiting carers, plus pharmacists and their staff who are all regularly handling the device.

The new dispensers have demonstrated reductions of over 99.9%, and set the bar even higher for the medication management market.

Product pages will be updated when this is available to buy.

This leading edge technology significantly decreases microbes including E.coli and MRSA in just 15 minutes, with reductions of up to 99.5% achieved in 2 hours. It works continuously for the lifetime of the dispenser, protecting against all bacteria, mould and some viruses.
