Frequently asked questions
Does this wipe effectively contain hazardous liquids?
Yes. Each wipe features a dual-layer construction specifically engineered for spill management. The white absorbent side holds up to 9 times its weight in fluid, while the integrated orange polyethylene backing acts as an impenetrable barrier to prevent soak-through on surfaces or gloves.
Can these wipes handle harsh laboratory chemicals?
Absolutely. The high-performance plastic backing is designed to resist penetration from a variety of hazardous substances, including:
- Blood and body fluids
- Xylene
- Ketones
- Formalin
Is this product low-linting for sensitive lab work?
Yes, the white cellulose-based side is significantly lower in lint than traditional paper or gauze alternatives, making it an excellent choice for wiping sensitive laboratory equipment like probes, pipets, and slide preparation devices.
Are these wipes suitable for direct patient contact?
No, these wipes are non-sterile and strictly intended for laboratory equipment maintenance, surface spill management, and infection control. They should not be used on patients.
What is the absorbency capacity of the material?
These wipes are engineered for high-performance fluid control and are capable of absorbing up to 9 times their own weight, providing superior efficiency compared to standard absorbent materials.
How are these wipes packaged for easy access?
The wipes come in a convenient 250-count poly pack, making them easy to store and access quickly within clinical or cleanroom environments.
Why is the backing colored orange?
The distinct, high-visibility orange polyethylene backing serves two purposes:
- It provides an impenetrable barrier against hazardous contaminants.
