What is it?

Clinell Universal Wipes are pre-saturated, disposable cleaning wipes designed to deliver combined detergent and disinfectant action in one step. They are intended to simplify infection control routines by allowing users to clean and disinfect in a single process, without switching between different products.

The wipes use a patented antimicrobial formulation that incorporates a blend of biocides, each with a different mechanism of action. This multi-faceted approach is designed to be highly effective against a wide range of microorganisms while reducing the likelihood of microbial resistance developing over time.

Clinell Universal Wipes are supplied ready to use and are suitable for hands, hard surfaces, non-invasive medical devices and shared equipment. Their formulation includes a low, non-active alcohol content, which supports rapid evaporation and leaves surfaces dry soon after use.
