Information on NAMSA Chemical Process Indicators (CPI)
|
|
|
NAMSA's Chemical Process Indicators are self-adhesive labels suitable for application by hand or Meto gun on shipping cartons or individual packages. The brilliant colour transitions allow for end users to easily note when product has been exposed to a sterilisation process, making it easy for sterilisation facilities and manufacturers to control inventory and assure end users that products have been exposed to the sterilisation process. These color-change indicators are manufactured using water-based, environmentally friendly, heavy metal free ink formulations. NAMSA offers a variety of standard configurations as well as customised indicator labels in a variety of sizes and shapes to meet your specifications.
Storage Considerations - All Indicator Types: Short-term, moderate heat (up to 35°C) or humid environmental conditions will not adversely affect the indicators' unexposed colour. Storage in a cool, dry place at room temperature is recommended. Indicators should not be exposed to prolonged UV light, direct or indirect sunlight. After exposure to the sterilisation process, the exposed colours of all NAMSA Chemical Process Indicators are stable. |
