Glutra-Mats™
Glutaraldehyde neutralizing mats for spill and vapor control
Glutra-Mats™ are a very popular product for spill and vapor control, not only in the endoscopy area, but wherever glutaraldehyde-based disinfectants are being opened, used, or poured. Glutra-Mats™ are impregnated with a glutaraldehyde neutralizer providing a quick method for soaking up and disinfecting spills. In addition to absorbing and neutralizing liquid disinfectants, Glutra-Mat's™ hydroscopic material neutralizes glutaraldehyde vapors as they are pulled in from the air.
Simple directions for use:
Spill Control: Place Glutra-Mats™ around the edge of glutaraldehyde spill, preventing any further movement of spilled material. Cover entire spill with Glutra-Mats™, soaking up 100% of glutaraldehyde. This will be notable when spill does not continue to soak through the top layer of the most recently placed Glutra-Mat™. Leave Glutra-Mats™ on spill for approximately 15 minutes to ensure complete neutralization.
Once neutralization is complete, mats may be removed from spill area. Follow your procedures for non-hazardous waste disposal. No more worry over how to dispose disinfectant waste!
Vapor Control:
Place Glutra-Mats™ in strategic locations where glutaraldehyde is being used, poured or transported.
These areas include:
- Underneath sterilization pans
- Sterilization pan transport carts
- Counter tops where glutaraldehyde can possibly be dripped or spilled
- Glutaraldehyde storage areas
