*Data on file at Syntervention, Inc.
Lint from cotton gauze and non-adherent pads can be transferred onto gloves, instruments, devices, into the air, and into patients.
The risk of complications like inflammation, granulomas, thrombus formation, infections, and even death have been linked to lint contamination; risks that increase readmission rates and associated costs. (Learn more)
SWIPER is durable and non-shredding.
One swipe cleans and hydrates with no lint left behind.
Highly Absorbent
