The perfect balance of seal strength and integrity, to prevent leakage and ensure clean opening every time.

The perforated fold facilitates precise folding of a wide self-adhesive strip to form an airtight seal. Internal and external multi-parameter process indicators for steam sterilisation respond to three variables: time, temperature and saturated steam. The multi-parameter process indicators printed directly on the pouch confirm sterilisation parameters. Blue-tinted film makes it easy to view instruments and detect punctures or tears. Convenient thumb notch makes it easy to open the pouch without contaminating the contents.

Features and Benefits:

• Four-Stage Seal Technology: The Medicom SafeSeal Quattro Sterilisation Pouches are engineered with a four-stage seal, providing a robust barrier against microbial contamination. This advanced sealing process ensures that your instruments remain sterile until the moment they are needed. The four-stage seal creates multiple layers of protection, minimising the risk of breaches, even during rough handling. This means that your tools are not only sterilised but remain secure during transport and storage, upholding the highest standards of infection control.
• Easy-Open Design: Time is of the essence in clinical environments, and the SafeSeal Quattro pouches are designed with this in mind. Featuring an easy-open design, these pouches allow for quick and hassle-free access to sterilised instruments. The clean tear at the top ensures that the contents remain uncontaminated, allowing you to focus on patient care without worrying about compromising sterility.
• Clear Multi-Layer Film: Visibility is key when it comes to ensuring that the right instruments are ready for use. The SafeSeal Quattro pouches feature a clear multi-layer film that provides excellent visibility of the contents, allowing you to easily identify the instruments inside without opening the pouch. This not only saves time but also reduces the risk of accidental contamination.
• Colour-Changing Indicators: Safety and compliance are at the forefront of the SafeSeal Quattro’s design. Each pouch is equipped with internal and external chemical indicators that change colour to confirm successful sterilisation. This built-in safety feature gives you immediate visual confirmation that the sterilisation process has been effective, ensuring that your instruments are ready for use.
• Medical Grade Paper: Crafted from high-quality medical grade paper, these pouches offer exceptional durability and resistance to tearing. The paper’s superior permeability allows for efficient steam and ethylene oxide sterilisation while maintaining the integrity of the pouch. The medical grade paper also enhances the pouches’ ability to act as a microbial barrier, ensuring that your instruments stay sterile.
• Multiple Size Options: Recognising that healthcare settings have diverse needs, Medicom offers the SafeSeal Quattro pouches in a variety of sizes to accommodate different instruments. Whether you’re sterilising large surgical tools or smaller dental instruments, there’s a SafeSeal Quattro pouch that fits your requirements perfectly.

How to Use:

1. Preparation: Select the appropriate size pouch for your instruments. Ensure instruments are clean and dry before placing them in the pouch.
2. Loading: Insert the instruments into the pouch. Avoid overfilling to ensure proper sealing and sterilisation. Ensure that the pouch’s transparent side is facing up for easy instrument identification.
3. Sealing: Seal the pouch using a heat sealer or a self-seal mechanism, depending on the pouch type. Ensure that the seal is even and secure to prevent any breaches.
4. Sterilisation: Place the sealed pouches in the steriliser with the paper side facing up. Set the steriliser to the appropriate settings based on the type of sterilisation process (steam or ethylene oxide). Run the sterilisation cycle, ensuring that the internal and external indicators change colour to confirm successful sterilisation.
5. Storage: After sterilisation, allow the pouches to cool before handling. Store the sterilised pouches in a clean, dry area until they are needed.
