Nilaqua is a family run manufacturer in South Wales, pioneering eco friendly patient care and hygiene products, designed to improve lives for patients and staff, reduce waste, utilities and save you money. Established in 2009 they have been working hard to supply the NHS and care homes with alternatives to traditional products.
Under Body Care: we have everything from Biodegradable FSC wipes (wet and dry) to our Aerosol Free Skin Cleansing Foam ( a 2 in 1 for all over cleaning and incontinence), which replaces the need for traditional wet wipes is dermatological tested and paraben free. Saving a minimum of 48 body cloths per bottle.
Under Hair Care : The Towel Off Shampoo is a gentle option to traditional bathing, which soaks the bed, uses utilities and often requires multiple people. A great waste saving is in our 200ml bottle – the equivalent of 5 single use plastic shampoo caps. Not only being cost effective at just £0.75 per wash but also reducing plastic waste!
Inventors of the biodegradable shampoo cap
We decided to go one step further and spent the last year developing and inventing the next generation in eco patient care, not only reducing plastic waste but cutting costs in healthcare. This environmentally friendly alternative is entirely crafted from biodegradable materials, yet retains the convenience and effectiveness of traditional shampoo caps while addressing the environmental concerns.
From a business perspective Nilaqua is essential for any home offering dementia and palliative care. Reduce manual handling risks, promote a stress free dignified environment and reduce the laundry costs, as bedding would not need to be changed as often. Also with the non drip foam technology our body wash lasts twice as long as aerosols.
