MediStreams deals with high quality Pipelines of Medical Vacuum Copper Pipes which is specifically designed in the Medical Gas Pipeline Systems (MGPS) in the hospitals, clinics and laboratories. They are deoxy-non-arsenical phosphorus copper (Cu-DHP / CW024A) copper pipelines that meet the standards of EN 13348 / ASTM B819. The pipes are all degreased, internally cleaned and sealed, so that they are sterile and oil-free inside, which is what is required of a vacuum and suction system in case of medical use.
