Two Rail Bumper Machine Washable (220 cm)
- 220cm Extended Length - longest model in the machine washable Two Rail Bumper range; the 220cm length suits profiling beds with extended-length side rails or taller residents requiring a longer bed configuration where the 180cm (NCL-TRCSBW18) and 200cm (NCL-TRCSBW) lengths would not cover the full rail without leaving unprotected sections.
- Machine Washable for NHS IPC - fully machine washable quilted construction enables thorough laundering per HTM 01-04 care home linen management standards; the quilted padding maintains its impact-cushioning properties across repeated laundering cycles, maintaining protection performance throughout the product's care home use lifespan.
- Concertina Net Window - strong see-through net window maintains carer visibility for observation and safety monitoring; the concertina design folds neatly when the profiling bed rails are lowered for care access, maintaining the bumper in position during clinical and personal care without requiring removal and refitting.
- Supplied in Pairs - hook and loop fastenings; supplied in pairs for bilateral bed rail protection; suitable for profiling beds in care home, hospital, and homecare settings; the wipe-clean 220cm version is NCL-TRCSB22 for settings where machine laundering is not the preferred decontamination approach.

Regulatory Compliance
MHRA guidance on bed rail safety requires that bumpers cover the full length of the rail without gaps; specifying the correct length for the bed configuration is essential. The 220cm length is the appropriate specification where rail measurement confirms a longer configuration. CQC Regulation 12 (safe care) requires that bed safety equipment is appropriate for the individual bed and maintained in a hygienic condition; machine washability enables HTM 01-04-compliant laundering for full decontamination. A documented bed rail risk assessment is required before fitting, with Mental Capacity Act 2005 best interest considerations applied where the resident lacks capacity to consent.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should the 220cm version be specified rather than the 200cm?
The 220cm version (NCL-TRCSBW22) should be specified where measurement of the profiling bed side rail confirms a length greater than 200cm. Fitting a 200cm bumper on a 220cm rail leaves 20cm of unprotected rail at one end, creating an impact injury risk at the unprotected section. The side rail length of the specific bed should always be measured before procurement; care homes should record the rail lengths for each bed in the equipment register to support correct bumper specification at replacement or for new installations.
Can machine washable bumpers be laundered at high temperature?
The machine washable construction is designed to withstand repeated laundering; confirm the maximum wash temperature against the manufacturer's care label before use in high-temperature care home laundry cycles. HTM 01-04 specifies thermal disinfection temperatures for different categories of healthcare linen; if the bumper care label permits washing at the required temperature for the care home's linen category, the machine washable bumper provides thorough decontamination consistent with NHS IPC requirements. Where the care label wash temperature is lower than the HTM 01-04 specification for the linen category, the bumper should be treated as a lower-risk item and laundered per the care label accordingly.
