In today’s healthcare environments, flexibility, safety, and infection control are more important than ever. The Mossa™ 3 Mobile Healthcare Divider stands at the intersection of these priorities, offering a revolutionary approach to space division in healthcare facilities. Not only does it comply with rigorous safety standards, but it also provides a more cleanable and durable alternative to traditional hospital curtains.
ANSI/BIFMA Compliance
Mossa 3 Mobile Healthcare Divider is a BIFMA-compliant product, meeting the stringent safety and stability standards set by the ANSI/BIFMA X5.6-2016 for panel systems, ensuring reliable performance in healthcare environments. The divider meets these requirements with two key tests that focus on stability under everyday use:
Impact Stability Test: The divider is designed to prevent tipping or separation of components. Mossa 3’s T-base configuration offers a minimal footprint without sacrificing stability, meaning the system remains securely in place, reducing any risk of falling over or compromising safety in patient areas.
Force Stability Test for Freestanding Screens: Mossa 3 Mobile Healthcare Divider performs well in the Force Stability Test, ensuring that even when subjected to an applied force of 40 pounds or a 10° tilt, the screen will not tip over.
A Better Alternative to Hospital Curtains
Traditional hospital curtains have long been the go-to solution for dividing spaces in healthcare settings, but they are difficult to clean, prone to bacterial buildup, and require periodic replacement. Mossa 3 Mobile Healthcare Divider offers a superior, cleanable glass solution that can help address these issues.
- Cleanability and Infection Control: Hospital curtains are difficult to sanitize thoroughly, creating potential hotspots for harmful pathogens. The Mossa 3 divider features glass, a non-porous, microbial-resistant surface, significantly reducing the risk of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). This makes it a more hygienic alternative, particularly in high-risk areas like patient rooms, emergency departments, and intensive care units.
- Durable and Long-Lasting: Unlike fabric curtains, which tend to degrade over time and may need to be replaced frequently, Mossa 3 Mobile Healthcare Divider is made from high-quality Starphire® low-iron tempered glass. Mossa 3 is tough, scratch-resistant, and easy to wipe down after each patient visit, and is resilient enough for years of constant use.
- Reduced Maintenance: Hospital curtains require constant laundering, which can be both costly and time-consuming. With Mossa 3 Mobile Healthcare Divider, facilities can reduce the ongoing costs associated with curtain maintenance. Its cleanable surface stands up to more frequent sanitizing with standard cleaning products and processes, making it a more cost-effective long-term solution for healthcare facilities.
Award-Winning Innovation
In 2023, Mossa 3 Mobile Healthcare Divider received the Nightingale Innovation Award in category Innovation Award in Furniture: Clinician Support, recognizing its forward-thinking design and its positive impact on healthcare environments. The award underscores its ability to improve space division, patient safety, and infection control—making it an essential tool for modern healthcare spaces.
Investing in Mossa 3 Mobile Healthcare Dividers means a more efficient, adaptable, and infection-free environment — something every healthcare facility needs as it strives to deliver the best care possible.
