The Kid-man ALPHAtex sterile instrument table cover, measuring 100cm x 150cm, is a high-quality medical drape designed to maintain a sterile field during surgical procedures. It features a dual-layer construction consisting of an absorbent viscose-polyester non-woven top layer and an impermeable polyethylene (PE) film base. This combination ensures that moisture is effectively managed while providing a robust barrier against the penetration of liquids and microorganisms, adhering to the EN 13795-1 standard for surgical drapes.
Advantages
This instrument table cover offers superior protection in demanding clinical environments. The absorbent non-woven surface quickly wicks away fluids, preventing pooling, while the underlying PE film acts as a reliable shield against strike-through, keeping the instrument table dry and uncontaminated. Its sterile, single-use nature eliminates the risk of cross-contamination between patients. Additionally, the inclusion of four adhesive labels facilitates efficient documentation and traceability, allowing medical staff to archive critical information such as batch numbers and expiry dates directly into patient records.
