"Sam" : the disposable 

super-absorbent mat

Keeps the floor dry and nurses happy...

Endoscopy-based diagnostics and surgery, in urology, gynecology, orthopedics, arthroscopy 

and radiology for instance, generally involve the use of considerable amounts of liquid.

It is often difficult to control the runoff and to collect used liquid.

This results in a wet and uncomfortable working environment.

 

 

Now there is an effective and convenient solution to the problem:

 

Sam collects and binds liquid hygienically and safely without drips

The development of highly-absorbent polymers in combination with innovative cellulose technology makes it possible to offer a simple, inexpensive and effective way of collecting and holding liquid hygienically and safely.

 

Sam absorbs up to 30 liter of water per square meter

One Sam is only a few millimeters thick, but its absorbency is outstanding - up to 30 liter of water or 12 liter of flushing liquid ( 0,9 percent saline solution) per square meter.

 

This is how Sam works

The core of the mat is made up of a super-absorbent polymer which forms a gel when it takes up the liquid.

The absorbent is enclosed in a protective sheath of fiber cloth, making Sam easy to handle.

 

Sam - a hygienic disposable product

Sam is a disposable product which has been developed to provide a better working environment in the operating theater, for example on the floor.

With Sam, it is also easy to measure the amount of liquid used. All the liquid stays in the mat, which can be weighted easily.

Used Sam mats must be disposed appropriately, depending on what they have been used for. Sam burns well.

The products of combustion are essentially carbon dioxide and water.

The mat absorbs all water-based liquids, such as flushing liquid, urine and blood. Sam does not work with oil-based liquids.

Sam has not been sterilized. Its main area of application is to keep the floor of investigation rooms and operating theaters dry.

Sam can not be cut into smaller pieces, the fiber cloth sheath must remain intact.
