Missaglia and Desall invite you to propose a new family of cabinets designed for medical environments, with an innovative design and contemporary style, equipped with state-of-the-art technologies aimed at enriching and facilitating the user experience.
Missaglia relies on the international community of designers for a new product that puts the individual at the centre, suggesting a new series of cabinets (wardrobes and various-sizes containers) with an innovative design and a great care for detail, able to fit well with the various areas inside hospitals, nursing homes and private clinics. In line with the brand values, the cabinets shall have a special care for environmental issues and present themselves as highly innovative products, able to embed state-of-the-art technologies, both electronic and not (i.e. Internet-of-Things IoT, nanotechnologies, etc.) and be open to additive manufacturing technologies, able to ensure a high degree of customisation, especially in the making of accessories, details and components.
Product typology: you are invited to propose a family of different-size cabinets (see Material files) to employ in medical environments, with an attention to innovation and a very refined design, specifically designed for improving the usability of the final user and capable of fitting well with the various settings inside the venues where they are employed, putting the individual and its needs at the centre. Keep into consideration that the various cabinets, once placed side by side, might give life to several compositions (see Material files for some examples).
Functions: the cabinets you propose, in addition to performing the main function they are meant for - containing - shall have a special focus on safety, providing locking and/or access control solutions. Furthermore, with a view of giving maximum importance to the final user, they shall take care of the finest details for the user experience and their practicality to be moved. Ultimately, it is of the greatest importance that your solutions ensure the greatest ease of sanitization.
Mobility: in order to facilitate the movement of the cabinets across the various areas of the venues, equip your projects with wheels and – so far as is possible – keep their weight and size at its minimum.
Shape and size: avoid using sharp edges to guarantee the maximum safety of the final users. Avoid shapes and elements that may retain dirt, thus impairing the sanitization. The size shall comply with the standard for this product typology and shall allow for a practical movement of the cabinets across the various areas of the venues, passing through standard sized doors (90cm width x 210cm height).

Technologies: in order to allow for a better versatility and granting a better attention to the user, your cabinets shall be equipped for the interaction with electronic devices and ensure a possible development in the Internet-of-Things (IoT) scene, suggesting interactions, sensors and use scenarios.
Materials and environmental compliance: the family of cabinets shall be designed with a special attention to environmental issues, opting for low-environmental impact materials, capable also of ensuring a practical sanitization, avoiding for example porous materials. The choice of the most apt materials will also contribute to reducing the emission of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) inside the venues. You may also suggest the use of additive manufacturing technologies to ensure a greater degree of customisation for components and accessories. Materials containing formaldehyde or, in any event, not complying with the medical environment requisites are forbidden.
Where to use: the cabinets will be employed in medical environments, including hospitals, clinics and nursery homes; they shall be versatile and suitable for being used in different areas inside the venues where are employed, from the entrance hall to the patient rooms and the work spaces reserved to personnel.
