Bedpan Washer Disinfectors

DDC bedpan washers are opened and closed using a hands-free optical sensor, foot cup/plate or elbow buttons – so your staff never need to touch the machine with their hands and risk spreading infection.

Once open, you simply load the reusable bedpans onto the internal rack and close the lid or door. The cycle can be programmed to start automatically and will be complete in as little as 6 minutes – leaving your staff free to get back to more important tasks.

Fixed and rotating wash nozzles direct water towards the utensils to maximise dispersal of waste, but also minimise water wastage. There is a steady flow of water to the drain to remove human waste and prevent blockages and residue build-up in the pipes.

The steam generated by the machine heats the internal chamber to 80°C – the temperature required to kill or denature harmful bacteria. DDC machines are guaranteed to stop the spread of 3 major HCAIs: Clostridium difficile (C. diff), Escherichia coli (E.coli) and norovirus. 

• Hands-free open, close and start technology reduces cross contamination of infectious materials and minimises the risk of ward outbreaks, keeping staff and patients safe.
• Reduce your facility’s budget spend with low operating costs and prevention of ward shutdowns due to infections.

• We provide full machine reporting on the condition of your machine as well as the frequency and type of callouts, so you can plan your asset requirements and manage your capital expenditure budget accordingly.
• Staff training provided so that all users know how to use the machine correctly and adhere to proper infection control procedures.
• Manufactured to the highest standards in the UK and distributed worldwide.
• Minimal waste due to efficient use of power and water.

Bedpan washer disinfectors are available as either front-loading or top-loading, so no matter the size, shape and setup of your sluice room or ward, we can offer the right solution to suit your environment.

If you think a top-loading, hands-free bedpan washer could be the right choice for your facility, take a look at the DDC top-loading Panamatic range.

Our machines are designed to be as user-friendly as possible. With a single multipurpose wash rack which can be loaded with a variety of reusable items in different configurations, and hands-free open, close and start technology, using a DDC washer disinfector could not be simpler.

In addition, their compact design strikes the perfect balance between form and function, providing an industry-leading solution, without compromising on the space available in your facility.

DDC bedpan washer disinfectors are available in either front-loading or top-loading formats, so no matter the setup of your sluice room, you can be sure we have a solution to suit your space.

If a front-loading machine is the right fit for your environment, take a look at our front-loading Panamatic bedpan washers.

Front-loading washer disinfectors can be either wall-mounted or supplied as a built-in unit, so they are particularly suitable for environments where space is at a premium.

Both our front-loading machines are exceptionally straightforward to use, and the Panamatic XL2 comes with the additional benefits of hands-free open and operation technology via a foot pedal and elbow buttons, further minimising the risk of the spread of infection.

* Panamatic XL front-loading machines are only available in the UK. Please see our range of Panamatic Top-Loading machines which are available internationally.
