The Asklepios Group, one of the largest companies in the German healthcare sector, and its members of the Green Hospital Program are focused on developing approaches to a \u201cgreen\u201d hospital.\u00a0As part of the research project \u201cGreening the Patient Room \u2013 The Patient Room of the Future\u201d, Asklepios Engineer Michael Scherer, who campaigns for sustainability in hospital construction, explains the advantages of floor-level shower surfaces made of Kaldewei steel enamel 3.5 mm for hospital environments.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAny grout joint is one too many\u201d says Scherer, following bad experiences with tiled shower areas. \u201cOur approach therefore is to invest from the start in a quality solution without grout joints that will in the end last for much longer.\u201d<\/p>\n
As a member of the program, Kaldewei is currently fitting a model room at the Asklepios private clinic St. Wolfgang in Bad Griesbach with the seamless enamelled shower surface Xetis with integrated wall outlet and Kaldewei Secure Plus finish, a virtually invisible full-surface anti-slip finish, ideal for use in hospitals.<\/p>\n
The surface of Xetis made of durable Kaldewei 3.5mm steel enamel is hygienic, easy to clean and protects against damage due to moisture penetration \u2013 a major advantage over other materials, especially tiled shower areas. \u201cThe 30-year material guarantee for Kaldewei steel enamel was an additional bonus\u201d says Scherer.<\/p>\n
