Fix@Clean©: the end of Velcro in operating rooms?

A Direct Answer to Hygiene Challenges

Fix@Clean©’s first advantage is hygiene. Unlike Velcro hooks, its completely smooth surface does not trap biological fluids or cleaning residues. By eliminating these inaccessible retention areas, the system removes the potential bacterial niches where biofilms can develop, a major concern in an environment where infection risk control is critical.
Another concrete benefit: the smooth surface of the table allows decontamination in a single pass, considerably simplifying cleaning protocols between procedures.

Improved Ergonomics for Teams

In terms of ease of use, Fix@Clean© is based on a simple principle: the “Lift & Drop” system. Simply place the cushion down and it adheres instantly; simply lift it and it detaches, with no mechanical resistance. Positioning remains free and immediate across the entire table surface, and the mattress can be removed in a single motion, without any pulling effort.
For care teams, this means fewer cumbersome handling tasks day to day, without changing patient positioning habits.

Durability and Return on Investment

Beyond hygiene and ergonomics, Fix@Clean© also addresses an economic challenge. The absence of mechanical traction protects mattress covers by preventing the micro-tears that gradually appear with a conventional Velcro system. There is also no more replacing or re-gluing the “male” parts of the Velcro when they become dirty or worn: maintenance is reduced to zero, and the lifespan of the equipment is extended.

A Universal, Non-Sticky Solution

On the technical side, Fix@Clean© uses a high-performance but non-sticky adhesion technology, leaving no residue on the table or on users’ gloves. The system offers the same stability as traditional cushions for patient positioning, while being compatible with any standard operating table.
