GC America Inc. announced the launch of a new surface disinfectant wipe and spray in December 2016 with the launch of COEfect MinuteWipes & COEfect MinuteSpray respectively. These new products are specially formulated with a low-toxicity rating and will not damage common surfaces, instruments and/or equipment found in dental offices.
COEfect MinuteWipes can be used to effectively clean and disinfect a dental operatory, sterilization bay or other potentially contaminated areas in less time – when compared to other products that have longer “kill rates” or out-dated formulations. This “one step,” surface disinfectant features an ethanol-base, low-toxicity and pleasant “non fragrance” and has been laboratory tested and is EPA Registered (#88494-1) as an effective Bactericide, Virucide, Tuberculocide and Fungicide. Additionally, the larger size (7”x 9”) and unique material (polyester nonwoven spunlace) combine to effectively spread the disinfectant solution and absorb excess bioburden – making it an added plus for infection control protocol.
COEfect MinuteSpray can also be used to clean and disinfection contaminated surfaces, instruments and equipment within the dental operatory. This product also features an ethanol-base, low toxicity rating and has been laboratory tested and is EPA Registered (#88494-2) as an effective Bactericide, Virucide, Tuberculocide and Fungicide for one minute “kill time” of twenty-five (25) pathogens. Used in combination with COEfectMinuteWipes or by itself (with a clean, dry cloth or paper towel), COEfect MinuteSpray can be used to effectively clean and disinfect and is ideal for any office infection control protocol.
Features & Benefits:
· One Minute kill rate – improves efficiency with infection control protocol
· Odor Free – no foul or strange odor for staff or patients to experience
· Surface Compatible – will not harm or discolor most surfaces found in operatory
· EPA Registered – as an approved Bactericide, Virucide, Tuberculocide and Fungicide for one minute “kill time” of twenty-five (25) pathogens.
· Polyester Spunlace – “All new” material that provides an even spread of disinfection solution and absorbs excess bioburden. No more “dripping wet” wipes that create a mess.
