For clean rooms, medical facilities, and laboratories, there is a single-use necessity quietly costing time and money: the traditional shoe cover. Blue booties. Manual dispensers.
Now, think about all the time it takes visitors to bend down and slip on a traditional shoe cover, or to do it all again when the material tears (as it sometimes tends to do). An automatic shoe cover machine, on other hand, can apply a thermo shrinkable shoe cover wrap in as few as three seconds.
Just step in, step out, and move on with the business at hand.
Thing is, the minute you plug in and warm up an automatic shoe cover machine, you begin reaping the time and cost benefits of less transfer.
Less transfer – this is what we like to call the automatic advantage.
Benefits of the Automatic Advantage
The traditional shoe cover requires more transfer of energy, touch, and even unwanted particles, creating all kinds of potential issues. Automatic shoe cover machines limit this kind of transfer, which has a number of benefits:
- Limit potential for static charge buildup – Limiting the introduction of static charge is especially important in environments with sensitive equipment, such as weapons-testing and military clean rooms.
- Reduce bacteria and particle transfer – Foreign particles and bacteria can cause contamination and cross contamination, especially pertinent in medical facilities.
- Decrease application time – An automatic shoe cover machine automatically outputs, cuts, and applies the PVC film. This saves time that can be spent toward productivity, or processing more visitors on a daily basis.
- Load thermo shrinkable film
- Plug it in and allow it to warm up
- Step in and allow machine to apply shrinkable wrap
Less Transfer, Lower Costs
Most types of facilities that require shoe covers receive considerable foot traffic everyday—sometimes dozens or even hundreds of people. The longer it takes to cover each of those pairs of shoes, the higher the cost of time and money. The automatic shoe cover can immediately reduce these costs, minutes after you plug it in.
That’s the automatic advantage.
