Foot-Operated Mixer Taps ERMES

MONOLITH ERMES foot-operated mixer taps are a hygiene solution for professional commercial kitchens — foot pedal operation prevents hand contamination transfer via the mixer tap surface and meets the highest food safety standards. BHS offers MONOLITH ERMES together with a range of professional kitchen fittings.

Hygiene benefits of foot-operated mixer taps

MONOLITH ERMES foot-operated mixer taps offer significant hygiene benefits compared to conventional manual mixer taps. Touch-free operation — ERMES foot pedal operation allows water to be turned on with clean hands without touching the mixer tap surface. Cross-contamination prevention — after handling raw products and before washing hands, do not touch the manual mixer tap; ERMES prevents contamination transfer. Compliance with hygiene standards — ERMES foot-operated mixer taps comply with HACCP and other food safety standard requirements. Speed — ERMES can turn water on faster with a foot pedal than with hands; kitchen staff time is saved. See also Monolith Kitchen Shower Mixers.
