Are you looking for a more effective way to decontaminate equipment transferred from Non-Classified (NC) areas into your GMP-controlled environment?
Traditional spray-and-wipe SOPs employing fabric-based “lint-free wipers” often struggle to clean off viable and non-viable particles present in large quantities from complex equipment surfaces. It is well understood that poor cleaning can lead to aseptic failures and generate visible particle defects.
Foamtec’s CoverMAX® wiper is the solution you’ve been waiting for.
CoverMAX® is a revolutionary decontamination tool explicitly designed to address the challenges of equipment cleaning SOPs in Material Transfer Airlocks (MTAs) in biopharmaceutical cleanrooms. Its unique triple-layered construction incorporates the best of both worlds:
- Superior Particle Capture: A top and bottom layer of cleanroom-grade microfiber fabric effectively traps viable (bacteria, fungi, viruses) and non-viable (dust, fibers) particles during wiping.
- High Disinfectant Capacity and Even Application: A central absorbent foam core acts as a reservoir, holding and delivering copious amounts of disinfectant or 70% alcohol solution throughout the cleaning process. The foam core’s design ensures an even distribution of disinfectant for optimal contact time with contaminants.
- Enhanced Cleanability of Complex Surfaces: The conformable foam core easily adapts to the intricate shapes of valves, pumps, tubing, and bioprocessing tanks, facilitating thorough cleaning and minimizing the risk of hidden contaminants. Unlike traditional wipers, CoverMAX® achieves excellent mechanical contact across the entire equipment surface.
Benefits of CoverMAX® Wipers for Effective MTA Decontamination:
- Reduced Risk of Contamination: Exceptional particle capture, minimal lint generation, and high disinfectant capacity work together to significantly minimize contamination risks during material transfers.
- Enhanced Aseptic Compliance: CoverMAX® wipers maintain aseptic conditions within MTAs, supporting compliance with regulatory requirements for GMP environments.
- Streamlined Cleaning Processes: The efficiency of CoverMAX® in particle capture and cleaning complex surfaces can reduce cleaning time and labor costs associated with MTA decontamination.
- Broad Compatibility: CoverMAX® can be steam, EtO, and Gamma sterilized**, ensuring compatibility with your preferred sterilization processes.
