Additional Information

Description

A sterilization pouch is designed for secure and reliable packaging of medical instruments, combining heavy-gauge, medical-grade paper with a clear poly film. The dual-material construction provides visibility of contents while maintaining structural integrity during sterilization processes. Internal and external chemical indicators are integrated to confirm that proper sterilization has occurred, supporting compliance with clinical protocols.

The pouch features a wide chevron design and self-seal closure, ensuring a secure seal while minimizing the risk of blowouts during steam or ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization cycles. The perforated adhesive seal reduces sealing errors and facilitates proper closure, maintaining the sterility of instruments until use. The inclusion of a thumb notch allows for easy opening, enhancing workflow efficiency in clinical and surgical settings.

Measuring 5.25 × 10 inches, the pouch accommodates a variety of small to medium-sized instruments. The transparent poly film provides clear visibility of contents, assisting staff in quick identification and verification. The color-coded chemical indicators change upon exposure to sterilization conditions—steam indicators shift from pink to brown, while EO indicators shift from blue to gold or brown—providing immediate visual confirmation of successful processing.
