  • Spartanburg, SC (November 1, 2018)- Contec MicroCinch Mop disposable microfiber pads are designed for efficient pharmacy cleaning and disinfecting. The USP compliant, disposable Contec MicroCinch Mop is constructed of 100% synthetic microfiber that provides superior removal of gross soil and fine particulate. MicroCinch reduces cross-contamination associated with reprocessed mops, and is suitable for ISO Class 7 and 8 environments. Compatible with most common disinfectant chemistries including quaternary, alcohol, peroxide, and bleach-based disinfectants. Unlike re-laundered microfiber mops, MicroCinch will not render disinfectants useless or degrade chemical efficacy, known as “quat binding.” The low-linting flat mop can be used wet or dry, and the pad provides uniform surface coverage and liquid distribution.

    The “pocket” style design allows for quick changing of mop pads, and the collapsible mop head frame, available in heavy duty plastic, easily snaps into the pad pockets.

  • Spartanburg, SC (November 1, 2018) – PeridoxRTU®, a ready-to-use, broad spectrum EPA-registered sporicide, disinfectant and cleaner, has been proven to effectively decontaminate critical surfaces that come in contact with hazardous substances. PeridoxRTU, an effective alternative to bleach, allows for proper containment- a major component of safe handling of hazardous drugs.

    Because there is no single process that has been proven to deactivate all currently available drugs, Contec set out to validate a cleaning process that would effectively decontaminate by cleaning. There are currently more than 150 different drugs listed by NIOSH as hazardous, and USP’s pending chapter 800 guidelines address the proper handling of hazardous drugs. When used correctly, PeridoxRTU Sporicidal Disinfectant and Cleaner removes many hazardous drugs and reduces the risks to Pharmacists and other healthcare personnel.

    PeridoxRTU combines hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid with proprietary ingredients to dramatically out-perform similar chemistries on the market.  PeridoxRTU’s patented, hyperactive chemistry provides a 3-minute sporicidal claim, a 2-minute virucidal and bactericidal claim, and a 1-minute fungicide claim and leaves minimal residue on surfaces, a necessary feature for cleaning critical environments. Unlike sodium hypochlorite solutions, PeridoxRTU will not damage stainless steel and other surfaces found in environments where hazardous drugs are compounded.

    With its power to contain and remove HDs, PeridoxRTU is your solution for decontaminating and disinfecting in your pharmacy.
