The key distinctions in surface disinfection are the surface material, whether it is a medical device, and the required application method. The portfolio includes alcohol-based, alcohol-free, and hydrogen peroxide-based options.
Surfaces compatible with alcohol
The relevant products in the ACTOSEPT AF series are described in the product information for rapid surface disinfection. These products should not automatically be selected for materials sensitive to alcohol; the compatibility of the selected product with the material must be checked.
Alcohol-sensitive medical device surfaces
ACTOANID SPRAY and ACTOANID WIPES are options specified for alcohol-sensitive medical device surfaces. ACTO OXY FOAM and ACTO OXY WIPES form a separate group of hydrogen peroxide-based surface products.
Concentrates and ready-to-use products
Concentrates such as ACTOANID FLACHE NEW and ready-to-use sprays, foams, or wipes do not use the same preparation method. Surface wetting, application time, and any rinsing conditions are determined according to the product’s current instructions for use.
