Classified as non-hazardous and emitting very low odour compared to other sporicidal products, SteriSpor™ sprays provide assured safe handling for cleanroom operators.
Each spray is aseptically filled into an ergonomically designed bottle using a closed system format to maintain 3 month in-use sterility, preventing the ingress of contaminated air. SteriSpor™ sprays are fully cleanroom processed and double bagged for smooth and efficient transfer into cleanroom environments.
With no activation required SteriSpor™ sprays deliver exceptional performance straight from the dispenser.
