Class 5 Steam Indicator Strips

Hopeway B.V.

Class 5 steam indicator strips are integrating indicators designed to closely simulate the behavior of biological indicators by responding to all critical parameters of steam sterilization—typically time, temperature, and saturated steam. These indicators are considered a higher standard of monitoring and are often used when a greater assurance level is required, such as for surgical instruments or implantable device packs. They respond to all critical variables, deliver precise high-sensitivity results, and provide an early visual indicator of process success before biological test confirmation.
