A safe operation begins before the team enters the room. Preoperative hand hygiene is one of the most important steps in the entire infection control chain, and the equipment supporting it should meet the same standard as the rest of the operating environment. That is exactly what a modern surgical scrub sink is built for.


Hygiene without compromise

Meditea offers surgical scrub sinks developed for healthcare environments. With touchless, sensor-activated operation, the water starts without contact, reducing the risk of contamination at a critical moment. The sensors deliver a steady, predictable water flow that supports a consistent routine, and antimicrobial surfaces can contribute to good hygiene day after day.


Designed for the workflow, built for daily use

A surgical scrub sink is used intensively, every day, by the whole team. That is why our scrub sinks are easy to clean, durable in daily use and designed so that the preoperative routine flows without interruption. The range includes multiple sizes and configurations, from single-station units to solutions where several team members can prepare at once, in different materials adapted to your needs.


Part of a well-planned operating environment

A scrub sink is rarely an isolated investment. It is a building block in a larger whole: the operating room layout, hygiene zones and daily workflows. As a supplier of complete operating environments, from modular operating rooms to interior fit-out and system integration, we help you choose the right configuration, whether you are building a new room or upgrading existing spaces.

Frequently asked questions


What is a surgical scrub sink?

A surgical scrub sink is a sink designed for the surgical hand scrub before an operation. It typically features touchless, sensor-activated operation and surfaces that are easy to keep clean, to support good hygiene and infection control.


Why is touchless operation important in a scrub sink?

Touchless operation means the water starts without the user touching any surface. This reduces the risk of recontaminating the hands after scrubbing, before surgical hand antisepsis. It is an important part of aseptic practice.


Are surgical scrub sinks available in different sizes?

Yes. Meditea offers surgical scrub sinks in multiple sizes and configurations, from single stations to solutions where several team members can prepare simultaneously, in different materials adapted to your organisation’s needs.
