                                Benefits of Phenolic in Healthcare Facilities

                                Learn how Phenolic material can help protect your health space.

                                When it comes to designing a healthcare facility, the central focus should always revolve around the well-being of both the employees and patients. A primary goal of healthcare facility design is the commitment to maintaining a clean and sanitized environment that complies with healthcare regulations and requirements.

                                Patients within these facilities are often already vulnerable due to their health conditions, making sanitation and infection prevention extremely important. Maintaining a clean and sanitary environment is a must, meaning materials and products used in the facility must be carefully chosen.

                                Choosing a versatile material like Phenolic provides centers with a reliable product that is both durable and easy to maintain. Phenolic serves as an excellent choice to support the creation of a healthcare environment that is not only safe but efficient and visually appealing.

                                BENEFITS OF PHENOLIC

                                • Hygienic Properties: Phenolic is an ideal material for healthcare facilities due to its outstanding hygienic properties. The non-porous surface prevents bacteria from seeping through and allows the material to easily be cleaned and maintained which is crucial in environments where the risk of infection is prevalent. Phenolic is a material that can withstand the constant cleaning and disinfecting that is required. Learn more on how to clean and sanitize your lockers here.
                                • Corrosion Resistant: The components of Phenolic make the material resistant to water, chemicals, and heat. Having this type of resistance makes it a smart choice especially when it comes to the sensitive equipment or tools that are stored.
                                • Durable: Phenolic is a great choice for facilities due to the long lifespan of the material. It is low-maintenance, requiring no protective treatments or sealing, making it a cost-effective choice over time especially in high-traffic or demanding environments.

                                As an extremely resilient material, Phenolic provides many benefits to the healthcare world. Discover more benefits of Phenolic here. When it comes to designing your next medical project, contact Hollman to see how we can assist.
