Manual Cleaning

One of the most important steps in endoscope reprocessing is manual cleaning with sponges, detergents, and brushes. If an endoscope is not properly cleaned and has residual soils on the device, high-level disinfection or liquid chemical sterilization may not be properly achieved. Our portfolio of manual endoscope cleaning products is designed to break down soils and protect the integrity of delicate devices, ensuring the endoscope can be reprocessed correctly and is procedure ready.
