COMPANY INTRODUCTION
VARM LTD., located in Civita
Castellana (VT) Italy, has concluded 2 innovative projects patented in 145
nations, to eliminate hands’ transmitted infections into public and private
hospitals and to provide the highest level of hygiene in every public place.
Infections increase every year and they
spread also into private houses, rest
homes, districts, private and public practices, veterinary practices, hotels,
fitness centers, schools, cruises boats, caravans and motor homes. It is
not possible to quantify
infections because it doesn’t exist relative publications. There
are no specific safety regulations
prescribing and preventing from the contraction of different infections in such
places. The proliferation of these infections and the complete inadequacy of the prevention policies
describe a huge threat for the whole community.
Results from the last analysis conducted
by Biosan (laboratory accredited ACCREDIA) on microbial entities, viruses and bacteria by
standing into the WC SYPHON show that:
THE MICROBIAL ENTITES BYSTANDING INTO A
COMMON WATER SYPHON AMOUNT TO :
Microbial Count
220.000 CFU/ml
Escherichia Coli 40.000 CFU/ml
Intestinal Enterococci 74.000 CFU/ml
AFTER THE TREATMENT WITH VARM UV DISINFECTION
SYSTEM FOR TOIELT WC
SUCH
VIRUSES AND BACTERIA ABATEMENT AMOUNTS TO 99%.

ACCREDIA)
In Italy there are about 700.000 hospital
infections per year and the mortality is about 7.000/10.000 deaths per year
with a cost for the Public Sector of around € 4.238,037 per year. The average
incidence of infections is 7%- 10% (data
published by the Bocconi University in 2000). In Germany mortality due to
nosocomial infections reaches 30.000 deaths per year (European Chronicles, blitz 05/15/2011). In the United States the
incidence of nosocomial infection reaches the 105 in the hospitals every year (Source: centre
for infection diseases and prevention, March 2009).
Varm Ltd., has finalized 4 innovative products, under patent pending procedure, to
constrain the problem and to limit costs held by the private and public
Health Sector in dealing with the argument .
FIRST PATENT
A VIRUS FREE TOILET SEAT COVER
Varm UVC’s Toilet seat cover (VARM VIRUS-FREE TOILET SEAT) allows to eliminate from WC up to 99,99% of microorganisms; which cause several infections. Its
function of UVC disinfection reaches out the complete inner surface
of the WC up to the toilet seat
ring. It is a simple device that includes the great advantage to provide higher
standard of hygiene and safety to everyone.
SECOND PATENT
UV DISINFECTION SYSTEM FOR A COMPLETE BATHROOM
(Washbasin, bidet, shower and floor drain
well)
It was studied to eliminate viruses and
bacteria coming from the sewer pipe up to the drainage pipes of washbasin, bidet, shower and a
floor drain well. The complete set of UV disinfection systems
allow the abatement of 99% of all viruses and bacteria by standing into
siphons and causing several infections.
THIRD PATENT
MULTIUSE TROLLEY WITH PORTABLE WASHBASIN
Portable washbasin studied for the
elimination of hands’ transmitted infections and to help healthcare operators
into their daily duty of taking care of assisted patients. This device has the
double advantage to provide to healthcare operators a source of clean water for
hands washing
procedure and to provide a very useful tool, thanks to its
accessories, in dealing with patient hygiene.
FOURTH PATENT
A VIRUS FREE WC
The last patented system realized by Varm
consists of a VIRUS- FREE WC. It
prevents from the coming up of viruses and bacteria from the WC syphon up to

bacteria are often the cause of several diseases and illness.
Advantages of disinfection systems:
· Qualifies healthcare structures
· Reduces hospital infection costs
· Reduces insurance costs
· Reduces risks and legal arguments
· Reduces working time and risk of
healthcare staff
· Easy maintenance costs
· Reduce the risk of infection spread
around
· Reduces infections means to reduce
mortality (7000 deaths per years in Italy - statistical data of Italian
Ministry of Health and Cergas University of Bocconi,
Milan published 2000)
· Reduces infections means to reduce of 8% - 10% the occupations of beds
in hospital and the working time.
