The HUBSCRUB Company Information

Since 1989, the HUBSCRUB Company has been committed to improving the most effective cleaning and disinfection product for durable medical equipment used at healthcare facilities. HUBSCRUB started as a cleaning service for long term care facilities. The practice of cleaning medical equipment with high pressure washers had a negative affect on upholstery and wheel bearings. Cleaning in parking lots and driveways was weather dependent, disruptive to patients and staff and resulted in an environmental concern with waste and chemicals. While people were conscientious about quality cleaning, one piece of equipment after another led to cleaning fatigue and a lack of consistent cleaning results. Perhaps through a destined encounter, the first meeting with a talented mechanical engineer was quite the surprise when he opened the door and was sitting in a wheelchair. Through the years, thousands of wheelchairs and other equipment have been cleaned by HUBSCRUB in different facilities, each having unique environments and custom set-ups. This extensive period has resulted in a proven product in quality engineering, user acceptance and the ability to work in different environments. Today, the HUBSCRUB Company is a division of Rehabilitation Equipment Associates (REQ). REQ is a well respected company which has been serving the needs of people with disabilities in New England for over 30 years.
