-
Fluid Solidifier:
- Superabsorbent polymer (SAP) powder contained within a water-soluble pouch
- Purpose is to rapidly absorb and solidify liquid spills, turning them into a semi-solid, gel-like mass
-
Contains Chlorine:
-
Chlorine serves to:
-
Deodorize: Effectively neutralizes and controls unpleasant odors associated with blood and body fluid spills
-
Aid in infection control:
- While primarily for solidification and deodorization, the chlorine contributes to an initial reduction of pathogens in the spill
-

-
Stability:
- Generally, shelf-stable and do not have a specific expiration date, provided they are stored in a cool, dry place in their original packaging
Uses and Benefits:
-
Containment of Biohazardous Liquid Waste:
- Primarily used in healthcare settings to solidify liquid waste in collection containers, preventing spills during transport and disposal
-
Reduces Exposure Risks:
- By solidifying potentially infectious blood and body fluids, it minimizes splashing, spraying, and aerosolization
-
Deodorizes Odors:
- The included chlorine effectively controls foul odors associated with bodily fluids, improving the environment during cleanup and waste handling
-
Streamlined Workflow:
- The "drop-in" design and pre-measured packets make the solidification process extremely fast and easy
- Contributes to faster room turnovers in operating rooms and other clinical areas
-
OSHA and DOT Compliance:
- Helps facilities comply with OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard and DOT regulations for the proper handling and transport of liquid medical waste
-
Eco-Friendly:
- The water-soluble pouch design can be considered more eco-friendly as it reduces the need for additional plastic bottles or scoops
- Non-toxic contents:
- The solidifier itself is non-toxic
