CSSD
Infection Control
Water quality plays a critical role in the safe cleaning of Reusable Medical Devices (RMDs), directly impacting infection prevention by addressing both microbial and chemical risks.
Chemically impure water cannot achieve microbial purity. Nutrients such as ammonia, calcium, phosphate, and iron promote bacterial growth, posing risks to patients and causing staining or spotting on RMDs—ideal conditions for harmful microbes.
Our comprehensive approach safeguards every stage of the decontamination process, from chemical purification to active disinfection, ensuring full traceability and compliance.
A high-quality, well-maintained purified water plant helps:
- Minimise the risk of hospital-acquired infections
- Prevent microbial growth on medical devices
- Ensure regulatory compliance and traceability
- Reduce reprocessing times and surgical delays
- Improve patient safety and outcomes
Maintaining water quality compliance is essential to delivering the highest standard of patient care.

RENAL DIALYSIS
Contamination Control
With therapy outcomes centred on enhancing the quality of life for individuals undergoing Haemodialysis, we recognise the critical importance of every stage in the water purification process.
Haemodialysis patients encounter over 360 litres of water weekly, making them vulnerable to health risks from contaminated water. Any lapse in the decontamination chain could significantly impact the quality of life for individuals with chronic kidney failure. We meticulously tailor solutions for each hospital or renal clinic, spanning from the building’s entry point to every dialysis machine.
RENAL DIALYSIS
Purified Water
Our purified water solutions employ a minimum two-stage filtration process with thermal disinfection, effectively controlling chemical and microbial contaminants.
We acknowledge the importance of water recovery without compromising purity levels. Hence, we utilise the HercoPur RO System*, which integrates a three-way reduction of water consumption. Through demand-based control, concentrate recirculation, and concentrate adjustment for maximum utilisation, our system delivers up to a remarkable 50% reduction in water consumption compared to traditional RO systems. With a guaranteed recovery rate exceeding 75%, our solutions prioritise sustainability while maintaining stringent purity standards.
*The HercoPur RO water purification system is registered with the Australian Regulatory Therapeutic Goods (302501)
