In-house
In-house areas such as living environments and hospital wards, operation theatres, receptions, and clinics may harbor a wide range of germs and bacteria, which necessitates the need for effectively disinfecting bathrooms, walls, and furniture. Liquids and wipes are commonly used to clean and disinfect in-house surfaces. The growing incidence of HAIs is a key factor increasing the use of surface disinfectants in this application segment.
Instruments Disinfection
Instruments used in hospital care, such as endoscopes, catheters, and ventilators, can be a key cause of HAIs, and as such need to be effectively disinfected before use. Surface disinfectants used in this application segment can be either bactericidal, fungicidal, or viricidal. They are ready to use, non-toxic, and appropriate for surfaces like stainless steel, chrome, glass, plastic, and plexiglass. Formaldehyde, peracetic acid, and quaternary ammonium compounds are most commonly used for instrument disinfection.
The growth of this segment is driven by the increasing prevalence of HAIs and number of surgeries. According to U.S. Senate committee report, at least 250 patients were infected with antibiotic-resistant bacteria after undergoing endoscopic procedures between 2012 and 2015 in the U.S. This is a result of the use of contaminated devices.
Other Applications
