MEETING SUPPLIER GOALSContracted supplier …American made products direct from the

manufacturer ◦ Helps the economy◦ Provides you with quality assurance ◦ Ensures on time delivery ◦ Provides cost effective products with the greatest

value

According to the U.S. EPA at 45%, the largest component of hospital waste is paper, including corrugated packagingAn estimated19% of the waste coming from surgical services is blue wrap. All reusable containers reduce waste. A container system that is durable, universal and ideal for standardization reduces waste and cost.

REDUCING WRAP

MEETING YOUR GOALSEliminate wrap by transitioning to a

reusable, sealed container system that is durable, adaptable and meets current needs

Reduce expenses associated with wrap such as tears in the wrapper, extended reprocessing times, wet packs, and delayed cases

Create efficiencies to avoid unnecessary reprocessing of wrapped sets, reduce inspection time, free storage space, reduce handling and increase productivity

Standardization to a universal system that is truly reusable, compatible with all sterilization modalities and devices according to manufacturers’ instructions ◦ avoids the need for excess inventory

STERITITESteriTite Container System ◦ Universal sealed container for all

sterilization modalities◦ FlashTite option for sealed

immediate use sterilization◦ Insert trays and baskets◦ Consumables including load

cards, filters, and tamper evident seals

SAVINGS WITH STERITITEAll conversions from wrap to sealed

containers can yield a ROI within 2 years◦ Customer saves on wrap, tape, absorbent liners,

corner protectors and other accessories

SteriTite, the universal container system provides even greater savings over other sealed containers ROI within 1 year◦ The maximum in instrument protection saves $$$◦ 1/3 more interior volume, less containers are

needed ◦ Lower profile container reduces weight and

addresses ergonomic issues and reduces cost◦ Ability to stack inner trays within container keeps

the set together for surgery and reduces inventory and shelf space

CORROSION RESISTANCE IS IMPORTANT!

SteriTite is Truly Compatible

FILTER RETENTION PLATES ARE IMPORTANTThe SteriTite container has

gaskets and an offset vent pattern to prevent punctures

Other retention plates do not protect the filter ◦ The competitive retention

plate is a skeleton and has many gaps that leave the filter vulnerable to puncture.

◦ Other containers have no gaskets and an extra plate is required
