onsibiity ving to deveop ever more innovative s uit Protection and Cabe Management nment Anti-Microbia Products The media continues to dedicate news time and coumn inches to the issues around the ceaniness within heath estabishments such as hospitas, surgeries and dentists etc, resuting in an environment of concern amongst the genera pubic, Government and the Heathcare sector. Summary MRSA Logic Pus has a ki rate of 99.9% compared to the competitor s Anti Microbia product with ony 86.4%. Both products had an equa 99.9% ki rate for E-Coi and Samonea. In 2008, MK Eectric commissioned independent testing on the Logic Pus range and a competitor s Anti-Microbia range by a reputabe independent UKAS accredited aboratory. The aboratory tested the products, after ceaning with disinfectant (the Government s Deep Cean poicy targeted a hospitas to undergo a deep cean by March 2008, which incuded ceaning a fixtures and fittings). The method The organisms MRSA, E-Coi, Samonea and Kebsiea Pneumoniae were appied to the products. Resuts were coected at 0 minutes, 4 hour, 8 hour and 24 hour intervas. Percentage ki rates after 24-hour period 100 80 60 Kebsiea Pneumoniae Logic Pus has a ki rate of 98.9%, compared to the competitor s Anti Microbia product with 95.4%. The Logic Pus range is produced using Urea Formadehyde, a high grade thermoset materia, which has simiar inherent properties to antimicrobia additives, which inhibit the growth of infectious diseases such as MRSA, E-Coi, Samonea and Kebsiea Pneumoniae. In addition, Logic Pus products are scratch-free thanks to high quaity moud toos, which means there are no dirt traps for bacteria to breed. Whist ceaniness is key to fighting these infections, and not repaced by the use of MK s Logic Pus products, the independent resuts show that the range is more effective than a competitor s Anti-Microbia products at kiing MRSA organisms and contributes beneficiay to any hygiene regime. 40 20 0 MRSA E-Coi Samonea Kebsiea Pneumoniae MK Eectric Logic Pus Competitor anti-microbia product Source: MK commissioned report, 2008

Buiding Reguations Parts L & M Part L: Conservation of Fue and Power In Apri 2006, Part L of the Buiding Reguations, Conservation of Fue and Power, was revised and reissued to ensure compiance with the ega obigations set out in the European Union Energy Performance of Buidings Directive. Statistics pubished by the Buiding Research Estabishment show that across a broad seection of non-domestic appications, ighting represents 40% of a buiding s tota energy consumption. The Heath appication shows ighting to be by far the function with the highest energy usage 63% which aso represents the argest opportunity for energy savings. MK Sensors not ony hep reaise the highest potentia savings in energy consumption, and thus to energy bis, but aso offer the shortest payback periods.
