These swabs are bleached using hydrogen peroxide, ensuring a chlorine-free composition that is gentle on sensitive tissue. Designed with precision, the 10x10 cm swabs feature ES-type folded edges, which effectively prevent the fraying of loose threads during use, ensuring a clean and reliable application in various medical environments.

Advantages

The primary benefit of these gauze swabs is their superior construction, which minimizes the risk of foreign body contamination due to the specialized folded edges. By utilizing chlorine-free bleaching, the product maintains high standards of safety and biocompatibility. Furthermore, the 8-ply thickness provides excellent fluid absorption capacity, making them highly effective for managing exudate and maintaining a clean surgical field. Their versatility is enhanced by their compatibility with multiple sterilization protocols, allowing healthcare facilities to integrate them seamlessly into existing workflows.
