Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

flow-med GmbH produces a whole range of drying and hygiene stations for hearing aids and hearables.

The proportion of rechargeable hearing systems is constantly increasing, and so is the manufacturer-specific diversity. Thanks to the latest lithium battery technology, it saves the user from constantly changing the battery. Charging with a charger takes several hours and is only possible overnight outside of hearing aid use.

Moisture, body secretions and cerumen can severely impair the function of all hearing systems and cause expensive failures. The function and value of the devices can only be maintained through optimal care with drying and hygiene. UV-C hygiene is also important for hearing aid wearers to avoid health risks, as bacteria and fungi can cause skin irritation and inflammation.

Hearing aid manufacturers, ear doctors and hearing care professionals therefore urgently recommend daily care and hygiene.

Optimum care is achieved with the innovative care box from flow-med. The quality of the drying process, the effectiveness of UV-C hygiene, ease of use (automatic control) and safety for the hearing system, charger and user are decisive.

The new dry-cap Uv2® from flow-med sets completely new standards here. In collaboration with hearing aid charging specialists, this larger care box was developed, which is universally suitable for the numerous new charging systems from the world's largest hearing aid manufacturers.

As a development specialist for care products, flow-med is in close contact with hearing care professionals and monitors international market developments. Shortly after the announcement of new company-specific charging systems, the universally suitable dry-cap Uv2® was launched on the market. The symbiosis of drying, hygiene and charging at the same time under one hood at a power outlet is a patented invention.

The innovative care box has two programs. In the Dry & Clean mode program, rapid drying takes place automatically in 2 hours using a ventilator. UV-C hygiene takes place over 2 minutes at the beginning and end of the drying period, so that all germs, bacteria and fungi are reduced by 99.9%. Program Clean Mode is designed for quick hygiene. In just 2 minutes, UV-C light ensures 99.9% sterility. This program offers users numerous hygiene applications, including in the household, such as toothbrushes, razors, dental prostheses, small toys, teats and teats for babies, watches, jewelry, coins, kitchen sponge, but also for hygiene for electronic applications, such as mobile phones (with simultaneous charge), telephone, keyboard, PC mouse, remote control, earphones and headset.

The new dry-cap uv 2® features the following highlights:

  • Attractive design with large interior space for all rechargeable hearing aids
  • Gentle, gentle quick drying with a whisper-quiet fan
  • Optimized UV-C hygiene (99.9%) in just 2 minutes (gentle on materials)
  • Health-promoting blue light (against psoriasis, acne, herpes)
  • Simple automatic button with processor-controlled program flow
  • 5V USB power supply with dual port mobile for all USB sources
  • Energy-saving, maximum product safety and quality

The care box for all rechargeable hearing systems is also a practical helper in the home.
