MP’SMART+: the compact hand-wash basin that keeps its plumbing out of sight

We hinted at it when we launched our soap dispensers: here is our new medical hand wash basin. MP’SMART+ keeps everything that made MP’SMART® a success and adds a skirt beneath the bowl. As a result, the trap, hoses and valve now sit behind a smooth panel, moulded with the basin.

Why put a skirt on a medical hand wash basin?

Under a standard basin, exposed pipework creates nooks and corners. Dust settles there, and cleaning staff have to work around fittings. However, the result rarely reflects the effort. With the skirt, on the other hand, there is just one continuous surface to wipe.

Secondly, there is a visual benefit. In a consultation room, a treatment room or a corridor used by patients, a medical hand wash basin with no visible pipes immediately looks well kept. In addition, for architects, it is a fixture that fits into the design with no extra boxing-in to plan for.

Medical hand wash basin MP'SMART+ by Medical Process, with skirt, rail-mounted in a dental practice

The MP’SMART® essentials, unchanged

  • One-piece moulded bowl in sanitary-grade polyester gelcoat, impact and stain resistant
  • No overflow and no crevices, rounded edges with no sharp corners
  • High splashback and side panels to contain splashes
  • Small footprint: 500 mm wide, 425 mm deep, 800 mm high including the skirt, weighing 10 kg
  • Supplied with Ø40 mm waste and trap, connection hoses, flow-limiting valve and wall-mounting kit

Two control options

  • Infrared electronic, with dual power supply (mains for continuous use, automatic battery back-up) and automatic purge
  • Elbow-operated mechanical, to limit contact points with no electrical connection

A medical hand wash basin compatible with our equipment

First of all, the point-of-use filter clips onto the tap in one move. Furthermore, MP’SMART+ takes our thermostatic mixer, UV disinfection kit and our rail-mounted soap and hand rub dispensers.

Where does it fit?

In practice, MP’SMART+ fits into medical and dental practices, consultation and treatment rooms, maternity units, emergency cubicles and corridors. In other words, anywhere space is tight and the hand-wash point is in full view of patients.

Finally, equipment is only part of the answer. That is why the WHO guidelines on hand hygiene in health care remain the reference for your teams’ protocols.

Touch-free soap and hand rub dispensers: two new products from Medical Process

A well-designed hand-wash basin is only half the job if things get complicated when it comes to soap. A pump pressed with the whole hand, drops falling on the floor, awkward refilling: this is often where hand hygiene loses its effectiveness. That is why we have designed two refillable dispensers that fit directly onto our hand-wash basins and surgical scrub troughs, with no hand contact with the device.

Two controls, one principle: no touching

Refillable elbow-operated dispenser (ref. 501KXMANUAL)

Staff operate the lever with the elbow or forearm. No batteries, no power supply: a simple, robust solution for treatment rooms, consultation rooms and corridors.

Refillable electronic dispenser (ref. 501KXTOUCHLESS)

Touch-free detection, powered by 4 C-size alkaline batteries. An LED shows the status of the unit: green in use, red when the cover is open, flashing red when batteries are low. Staff can spot a unit that needs attention at a glance.

Medical Process soap dispenser features: elbow-operated or electronic, 500 ml, 1.5 or 3 ml dose, wall or rail mounting

What both models share

  • 500 ml refillable reservoir, filled from the top
  • Selectable dose of 1.5 ml or 3 ml
  • Compatible with all types of soap, alcohol-based hand rubs and fluid antiseptics such as povidone-iodine: no proprietary cartridge, you choose the product
  • Replaceable pump and removable components
  • Supplied unlocked, or key-lockable on request
  • 2-year warranty

On the Medical Process rail: the mounting that makes the difference

Both dispensers can be fixed directly to the wall, or clipped with a PVC mounting plate onto our Rilsan-coated aluminium rail, available across the whole range: MP’SMART®, MP’MEDIO®, MP’UNO®, MP’DUO® and MP’TRIO®. This brings three practical benefits:

  • drops fall into the basin, not onto the floor;
  • changing or moving an accessory requires no new drilling;
  • each item can be removed in seconds for cleaning.

Refillable, provided it is done right

International hand hygiene guidance is clear: never top up a partially empty dispenser. Before each refill, the reservoir must be emptied, cleaned and dried. Our dispensers are designed for this protocol: top opening, removable pump, smooth surfaces that clean easily with warm water and mild soap.

Who is it for?

Hospitals, clinics, care homes and medical practices. For engineering firms and architects, it also means specifying a complete, consistent hand-wash point (basin, rail, dispensers, filtration) from a single manufacturer.
