Medanta is specially geared to international patients, helping generate a growing trend in medical tourism. According to Indian estimates, almost 200,000 foreigners fly to India for medical treatment every year. International patients come because of the world-class facilities available at affordable costs. Indian hospitals meet international standards of cleanliness and hygiene and their top-class infrastructure suits the needs of patients coming for treatments such as heart surgery, knee replacement, orthopaedic treatments, cosmetic surgery, eye care, or dental treatment.

The hospital has recently installed a flight type dishwasher of the M-iQ model.
Deepak Batra is General Manager, F & B at Medanta, who explains: “Medanta is a high volume operation requiring a durable and quality cleaning solution. Meiko is a world leader in flight type dishwashers and was a natural choice for our operation, as the health and safety of our patients is our top priority. We all know that this machine has the design property of a heat recovery system which is saving a lot in the terms of energy consumption.”

The M-iQ features a superb air management system and process-oriented heat recovery module which eliminate the need for a direct exhaust air connection, which helps to keep the area cool and generates no extra load to building HVAC system. As well as ensuring optimum energy efficiency, Meiko’s M-iQ machines also include a one-of-a-kind filter system which enables the machine to clean itself. The pumped rinse system only needs to be filled once to completely remove all the dirt from the machine.
