THE CHALLANGE

As a company, we are committed to achieving health and safety excellence and are continually working towards a zero injury rate. Therefore, supporting solutions that eliminate the risk of injury and the spread of infection is a top priority for Bouygues E&S. That is why we have partnered with the company Trovex who supply hygienic integrated plumbing systems, fire-rated door sets and wall-cladding solutions. The Trovex Hygipod system has been designed with hygiene, infection control and longevity in mind, meaning our client and site teams will benefit from safer and more reliable working conditions.

OUR SOLUTION

Recent events such as the Covid-19 outbreak has prompted businesses, especially in the Healthcare sector, to reconsider their building’s infrastructure and working environment. This is to ensure employees are working in safer and more reliable conditions as offices and public spaces begin to re-open.

Those who work in a hospital environment are most at risk of catching infectious diseases. Thus, finding innovative solutions to reduce this risk is paramount to the health and wellbeing of all hospital users.

Trovex’s Hygipod IPS units are delivered prefabricated so that there is minimal disruption to the live environment during installation. They are also built with an ultra-hygienic exterior surface that is simple to maintain and clean and reduces the spread of infectious diseases.

Trovex have been supplying Hygipod IPS units to Bouygues E&S hospital sites throughout Greater London for over three years such as at West Middlesex Hospital (WMUH), ITU ward.

The advantages of installing Trovex IPS Panels were noticed immediately by Bouygues E&S  site teams.

Robert Dashwood, General Manager at Bouygues E&S, said: Our engineers have found them to be much easier to install and the light weight of the panels reduces the risk of back and finger trap injuries. 

CLIENT BENEFITS:

• HBN-0010 part C compliant for sanitary assemblies used in healthcare facilities.

Jaysun Tuffin, Contract Manager at WMUH, Commented: We have had nothing but positive comments from all parties about the Trovex system – from the cleaning and maintenance perspective it makes life so much easier, and it looks really good, too. We will definitely be using this product in the future.
