Protecting patients and the environment

As resource efficiency becomes a critical focus of the healthcare industry, Silentia remains committed to supporting hospitals with future-proof patient privacy.

A proven solution

Since 1990, Silentia has been the leader in patient privacy, developing innovative solutions that reduce waste and energy consumption, contributing to a cleaner environment.

Today, we are trusted by hospitals in 50+ countries and proudly deliver products with a proven lifetime of 10+ years.

Total cost of ownership (TCO)

We often encounter the assumption that hospital curtains are the cheaper solution compared to our privacy screens. The truth is that when considering the long-term benefits, costs, and resource savings—total cost of ownership—curtains come at a much higher cost.

Good Environmental Choice

Case story: Regionshospitalet Gødstrup, Denmark

Silentia helped the project group at Regionshospitalet Gødstrup reuse 100+ screens from the two older hospitals that were being succeeded. In the end, Silentia helped save approximately 1.6 tons of material.

Testimonial

“The project must be sustainable and economical, where we recycle as much as possible. It is an important task, and I can feel that there is a great awareness among the employees that we do not throw away well-functioning equipment,” said lead coordinator, Bente Fjordside.

Reusability and saved material

Our screens are equipped with EasyClick so that they can be easily moved, combined, and reconfigured to adjust to the changing needs of the care environment.

Product passport

A digital product passport is fitted to each screen to ensure we can track and store information about the screen. At Gødstrup, this allowed us to register, service, and plan the moving of screens from Herning and Holsterbro to the new Gødstrup Hospital.

Lifetime

Some of the screens that Silentia serviced and moved to Gødstrup were 5+ years old. With a proven lifetime 10+ years, we are confident that the reused screens will last for many years to come.
