Steam sterilisation assurance solutions leadership you can trust

Steam has been a trusted sterilisation method for more than 100 years. It’s been the go-to sterilant because it’s reliable, inexpensive and ideal for sterilising medical instruments — such as scalpels and scissors — that can withstand high heat. But how do you make sure your steam steriliser is working effectively to keep instruments safe?


Explore our wide range of products to help you monitor every step of the steam sterilisation process, including equipment, load and pack monitoring.

Choose VH202 for sensitive medical devices


While steam sterilisation is the go-to solution for most medical devices, some medical devices cannot be sterilised with steam. That’s why we’ve designed low temperature sterilisation assurance solutions — vaporised hydrogen peroxide (VH2O2) — for heat- and moisture-sensitive medical devices, like small flexible endoscopes. 


Explore our wide range of products to help you monitor every step of the low temperature sterilisation process, from exposure monitoring to record keeping.
