As of October 2014 the World Health Organisation (WHO) along with US and local governments reported a total of 8,033 suspected cases and 3,866 deaths from the Ebola virus. Although the WHO believes this greatly understates the magnitude of the outbreak. In the past week there have been escalating reports of Ebola quarantines outside of West Africa in the US, Australia and Spain.

Ebola is on everyone's mind. Rapidly escalating figures like the ones above only highlight how drastically the virus appears to be spreading and here at SP Services we are working hard to keep up with demand for Ebola Infection Control Kits that we produce for in-the-field use by medical professionals around the world.

SP Services, based in Telford is one of the UK’s leading international suppliers of first aid and medical equipment and have been using the time since the first announcement of the disease in late 2013 to prepare protective and hygiene equipment for this eventuality. The Ebola Infection Control Kits are designed to provide full body protection form splash fluids to prevent infection.

As well as the complete Ebola Infection Control Kit which includes a mask, goggles, coverall, overshoes, gloves, disinfectant wipes, hand sanitiser and a clinical waste bag, SP Services also stock a wide range of sanitising products.

The coveralls within the Ebola Kit offer are EN14126 standard, which is recommended standard set by the WHO, and the masks provided are BioMask’s. Unlike conventional masks, BioMask's revolutionary, patented technology actually traps and kills bacteria and viruses on contact rather than just filtering and allows you to breathe normally:

•  Traps and kills 99.9% of harmful germs

•  Superior breathability & comfort

•  Self-sanitizing for ALL-DAY WEAR

•  Reduces cross-contamination of hands and surfaces

The BioMask traps microbes by mimicking the sites on human cells to which they normally attach, then, destroys them by disrupting their surfaces (viruses) or cell walls (bacteria).

SP Services have been working closely with large charities, international organisations and NGO’s to get Ebola Infection Control Kits out to affected areas such as Sierra Leone and Liberia along with NHS Trusts gearing up for all possible eventualities should the virus spread continue to escalate.

For more information on the Ebola Infection Control Kits SP Services produce please do not hesitate to contact us.
