Sterilizing bandages

Published On: November 1, 2010

We make bandage rolls for a local customer and need to get them sterilized. Where can I have them irradiated?

Contract electron beam irradiation services are commonly used to sterilize bandages and other medical devices; the technology uses accelerated electrons that destroy bacteria and other contaminants. We located a service provider, E-BEAM Services, although you should check local listings for someone near you.
