The GIMA range of tapes is specifically formulated for bagging and at the same time visually showing that the packaging has successfully completed the sterilisation cycle. The coating of the different tapes consists of particularly strong impregnated paper, which guarantees excellent pliability during application. These sterile tapes unroll easily and can be torn by hand without any difficulty. Special adhesives, specifically formulated to withstand high levels of temperature and humidity, ensure perfect adhesion to paper, plastic, non-wovens, boards, metals, glass and linen. Each tape is individually packaged with an expiry date. Italian production.

Initial colour: light green
- Sterilisation at 121 °C - 10 minutes: light to dark green
- Sterilisation at 134 °C - 2 minutes: light to medium/dark green

BOWIE AND DICK'S HELIX TEST PACKAGE

- conf. of 100 pcs
- includes: cotton bag, helix device (1.5 m tube), 100 tests and user manual (GB, FR, IT, ES)

Helix devices and their indicators are proven to detect faults during each cycle much earlier than other chemical indicators/integrators.
EN 285:2009 specifies that the Helix (Hollow A) tests are to be used in the same way as the Bowie and Dick tests as well as batch monitoring when hospitals sterilise loads containing instruments with cavities.
In addition, the Bowie and Dick's Helix test is mandatory for Class B Bench Top Steam sterilisers.
- compliant with ISO 11140 - 1 type 2 - EN 867 part 5 class B
- clear colour transition to pink
- easy to interpret and document
- non-toxic/lead-free
- PCD guaranteed for 500 cycles (134°C - 3.5 min)

Indicator for steam autoclave sterilisation under pressure from 1 to 2 bar 120°C/135°C.
No special storage conditions.
Safety and reliability.
Japanese production.

The words 'Sterilisé' and the design of three stars change from pink to brown to indicate the effectiveness of sterilisation at 121°C for 15 minutes or 134°C for 3 minutes 30" and to black to indicate a safety margin at 121°C for 20 minutes and 134°C for 5 minutes.

CHEMICAL INTEGRATOR 3M™ COMPLY™ STERIGAGE™ - 1243A - pack of 1,000

Class 5 integrator complying with the requirements of ANSI/ AAMI/ISO 11140-1:2005.

- Moving Front Ink technology provides an easy-to-read acceptance or rejection result
- usable in steam sterilisation cycles 118-138°C (250-275ºF)
- correlates response to a biological indicator according to three time/temperature ratios under ideal steam sterilisation conditions
- identifies non-sterile instruments before they enter the sterile field
- helps identify errors in the sterilisation process by isolating individual package problems

Indicator with window size 2 mm x 3.7 cm

TYPE 5 MOVING FRONT SUPPLEMENT

- pack of 1,000 pcs
- non-toxic/lead-free

Moving Front 134°C -3.5 min integrators give the best possible interpretation in case of any failure in steam sterilisation cycles.
If the temperature is not reached or the holding time is too short, the dark colour will not reach the acceptance area.
Conforms to ISO 11140 - type 5.

User manual in GB, IT, FR, ES.

- shelf life: 5 years from date of manufacture
- white aluminium packaging, re-sealable bag
- easy-to-interpret result
- sealed indication area

ETHYLENE OXIDE STERILIZER INDICATOR - pack of 250 double strips

Ethylene Oxide (EO) type 5 steriliser indicators are designed for use with E.O. sterilisers in accordance with ISO 11135.
The indicator strips can be used in any instrument pouch and provide guaranteed penetration of E.O. gas into the instrument pouch.
The water-based, non-chemically toxic indicator in accordance with ISO 11140 - 1 will show a clear colour change from white to yellow after sterilisation.
The strip test indicators are convenient and inexpensive and can be split into two separate pieces.
