Kraft sterilization bags with indicator are made of sulfate cellulose, density 70 g/m2.

Indicators are applied to the kraft packaging to distinguish sterilized instruments from unsterilized ones by changing color.

If the sterilizer has worked correctly, the external indicators change color to the one specified in the standard, for example, beige will turn purple.

The indicators are glued to the area of the kraft pouch available for visual inspection. After the sterilization cycle is complete, the indicator label of each indicator is compared to the color of the reference standard.

If the indicator displays a negative test result, all instruments processed in this cycle are considered non-sterile.

Kraft sterilization bags contain the following information:

1. product name

2. size

3. name of the manufacturer (trademark)

4. acceptable method of sterilization

5. a warning label about the inadmissibility of use in case of damage to the package

6. explanatory diagram showing how to open the package with scissors

7. the expected color of the indicator after sterilization.

The peculiarity of kraft bags is that they allow air molecules to pass through, but at the same time filter out bacteria and other microorganisms.

After sterilization, when exposed to high temperature, the microorganisms inside the bag die, and after the end of the treatment, new ones do not come from the external environment, which ensures the sterility of the instruments.

Kraft sterilization bags are used for sterilization of instruments by air (sterilization temperature is 160-180C) and steam (at sterilization temperatures of 121-134C).

Features

- resistance to moisture - the package does not get wet when in contact with steam and a humid environment, maintains tightness

- preservation of material quality when exposed to high temperatures, while the strength and tightness of the package does not lose quality

- a wide range of sizes and shapes - allows you to choose the right package for each tool

-hermetic fasteners: self-adhesive tape

- compliance with the requirements of GOST

- easy disposal, does not harm the environment, as kraft material quickly decomposes

Areas of application

Kraft bags are used in medical institutions, cosmetology, beauty salons for air sterilization of manicure and medical instruments in dry heat cabinets, autoclaves and other devices.

The sterilization procedure consists of three stages: manual or automatic cleaning of instruments, disinfection of instruments in special solutions, and then sterilization of dry instruments in a dry heat cabinet. Paper bags are used in the third step.

Immediately before placing the instruments in the dry heat oven, put them in a bag (seal the bag). After the procedure, this set of tools can be stored until you start working. The package is opened in the presence of the customer.
