MP’s solutions to help fight Covid-19: safe spaces for passengers
Passenger safety has always been a priority here at MP.
From the very beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, MP has focused on making lifts safe spaces for those who use them. As such, it has focused on three areas:
-
- Air inside the car.
- Surfaces which passengers come into contact with: buttons, walls, handrails and door handles.
- Social distancing between passengers using lifts.
We have created a comprehensive range of solutions relating to these three aspects, all of which are fully compliant with health authority recommendations:
-
- Airborne transmission: air purification by way of UV-C LEDs and constant air flow.
- Direct contact transmission:
* Adhesive film with antimicrobial properties.
* MP CallMyLift: an app that allows users to avoid contact with lift buttons by selecting their destination from their mobile phone.
* Cleaning of car surfaces with disinfectant.
-
- Social distancing:
* ‘Lift full’ feature to ensure social distancing.
* ‘Direct journey’ feature (lift goes from A to B without stopping).
* Footprint floor stickers to ensure social distancing.
Safety measures have also been created for escalator passengers, for whom we have designed a germicidal device that uses UV-C LEDs to clean handrails, as well as footprint floor stickers to make sure they maintain social distancing.
