At Yewdale, we’re committed to making healthcare environments safer, more sustainable, and easier to maintain. That’s why we’ve introduced two important updates to our industry-leading Stericurtain: the new Touch Point feature and an improved eyelet. Together, they make our reusable hospital curtains even more practical for everyday use.
The Touch Point Advantage
Hospital curtains are high-contact surfaces, handled daily by staff, patients, and visitors. With infection control a top priority, we’ve added a dedicated Touch Point at both ends of every Stericurtain. These Touch Points act as designated areas for handling, giving staff a clear and hygienic way to draw or adjust the curtain.
By concentrating hand contact on one wipe-clean surface, cleaning becomes quicker, easier, and more effective. Instead of constantly replacing disposable curtains, facilities can confidently clean Stericurtains in situ—reducing waste and saving valuable estates and housekeeping time.
With 13 Touch Point colours available, hospitals can tailor their Stericurtains to suit ward aesthetics or functional needs, and even choose different colours for each end. This small but clever design feature is already making a big impact on safety and efficiency.
Stronger, Smarter Eyelets
We’ve also refined the Stericurtain’s eyelet design, ensuring smoother gliding along tracks and greater durability under frequent use. The improved eyelets not only extend the curtain’s lifespan but also make installation and day-to-day operation easier for staff.
This enhancement reinforces what Stericurtains are all about: long-term performance. With a 10-year Lifespan, facilities can rely on them for years of consistent, safe use without worrying about costly replacements or hidden charges.
Future-Proofing Healthcare Spaces
By introducing Touch Points and enhancing the eyelet system, we’re not just updating a product—we’re helping healthcare providers improve infection control, reduce environmental impact, and streamline operations.
Stericurtains remain the most cost-effective, sustainable, and robust hospital curtain solution on the market, now with even greater ease of use built in.
