Manufacturer of cashless payment
systems, Quintus Systems, has
introduced a way to distribute and
control the free issue of PPE using an
automated dispense system driven by
its EPnet software. By introducing a
strictly controlled environment, the
Quintus method saves on labour costs
and reduces stock loss.

The system works with the
installation of a modern, glass-fronted
merchandiser that is configured to
dispense PPE. Staff use the machine
to draw all the protective equipment
they need using a card or fob. Because
PPE is dispensed automatically, there
is no labour cost associated with the
issue, no payment to reclaim and each
allocation is recorded against a staff
member’s name, so total control and
accountability is achieved.
