With COVID-19, there is an increasing need to strengthen safety measures and ensure proper hygiene practices in daily operations to protect the well-being of everyone involved whether they be staff, customers or patients. The CT4-LX-HC features antimicrobial casing that is disinfectant wipe ready to ensure hygiene when multiple users need to use its 4.3 inch touch screen display in the same workplace.
“The CT4-LX-HC delivers peace of mind across the health care sector, from supply chain management perspectives of manufacturing and logistics all the way to the point of care,” said Noriyasu Yamada, SATO Holdings Chief Alliance Officer, and Head of R&D. “I believe smart connectivity and creative integrations from SATO using the CT4-LX-HC will support front line essential workers and boost patient safety.”
