About Our Products
Being in the veterinary industry for over 30 years we know how certain items require constant replacement, such as towels and scrubs, due to low quality materials and the constant wear and tear. We also know the toll these items take on your washer and dryer. That’s why we have teamed up to create products with infused technology to save you thousands of dollars on equipment replacement. Aesthetically our items will give a clean uniform look to your hospital providing you that extra advantage over your competitors while saving you time and money.
Our technology is universal across our line, meaning that all of our products have the same technological advancements and characteristics. Medical textiles that contain all cotton or cotton/polyester blends have the ability to sustain the life of bacteria and viruses and break down quickly. Our Infused® and TransformedPolyester™ products contain fibers that could and would not support the micro bugs life while keeping its integrity. They also include a powerful textile finish that allows our products to be thoroughly sanitized and sterilized.
K-Pad
Through research and design we have made custom pads to fit the majority of kennels in veterinary hospitals. Our K-Pads come in three different sizes with rounded edges to comfortably fit 24x30, 30x30, and 36x30 cages. The outside materials consist of the modified fibers, with the bottom being calendered to prevent liquid from running straight through the pad. All of our pads also contain a 9oz soaker in the middle and have binding along the edges to stop the flow of liquid from leaking out of the cages.
Unlike towels, our pads are extremely low-lint and dry faster to reduce the depreciation of your washer and dryer. Our pads can be bleached/chloroxed as well as washed and dried in hot temperatures, but won’t fade in color, pill or pick. There is little to no shrinking, less than 1%, over typical cotton/polyester products. This makes sure the pads stay true to size to continually fit your cages.
Surgical Towels & Pouches
Our surgical towels and pouches contain a wicking component that spreads the heat and moisture to the edges and then evaporates. They are highly absorbent and durable, resistant to tearing or picking. They produce very little lint and will not bind to cotton when washed with regular towels. Like all of our products they can be bleached and still retain their integrity.
Our surgical towels are most often used as a sterilization wrap in autoclave equipment cleaning. This helps reduce surgical waste with disposable sterilization pack wraps, and saves preparation time that cotton surgical towels inflict.
