Tristel Solutions

Tristel Solutions – a global supplier of infection control, contamination control, and hygiene products, serving hospitals worldwide (NHS and private).

Challenge

Tristel produces a dual-component disinfectant (base + activator) in conjoined bottles. Previously, the base and activator were filled on separate machines, capped individually, then combined with a dual activation cap before labeling—a manual and time-consuming process.

Solution

Response Automation Filling Line
Fed from two large tanks (one for base, one for activator).
Both components fill conjoined bottles simultaneously.
Integrates Tristel’s existing benchtop units, keeping prior investments in use.
Handles multiple product ranges, including the 500ml chlorine dioxide foam-based dual product.

Modular & Scalable:

Additional benchtop units can be added easily to increase output without extra cost.
Semi-automatic operation possible if a benchtop unit is removed for maintenance.

Results

Productivity:

70% increase in output immediately after installation.
Producing 700–1,000 bottles per hour, depending on the product.

Reliability & Versatility:

Based on long-standing trust in Adelphi’s equipment: durable, low-maintenance, and dependable.
Modular design ensures flexibility and minimal downtime.

Rapid Response to Demand:

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Tristel added four more Response Benchtop Fillers, bringing the total to 10.

Machines delivered and operational within 4 working days.

Focused production on key disinfectants: DISTEL (hard surface cleaner) and JET (sporicidal disinfectant effective against SARS-CoV-2).
