The Advantages of Germicidal Wipes

Not everything in the medical industry has to be fancy and expensive. Sometimes the best and strongest products come in the most unassuming of places. Take for example, wipes. Disinfectant, food-safe, germicidal, you name it. Normally you see people wiping tables at restaurants, you buy them for your house, everyday use. Sure they get the job done there, but sometimes you wouldn’t think that wipes like that have stronger variants used in medical practices. And while they may not look like much, wipes are a very important player in the fight against germs and pathogens. Today we’d like to talk about them, but focus on one kind that you’re likely to see the most in medical: germicidal wipes. They’re a bigger part of any medical practice than you might think. So in this article, we’re going to tell you the advantages of germicidal wipes.

And if you have any questions about this or anything else, you can call us at 704-966-1650. But let’s answer one question before we start. 

What are Germicidal Wipes? 

Well to start, the answer isn’t dedicated to specifically wipes. So what we’re asking instead is “what is a germicidal?” Anything that ends in the suffix “-cide” is meant to kill what comes before it. The suffix “-cide” comes from the Latin caedere, meaning “to kill, to strike down.” So a germicide is any listed item that is designed to kill germs. And other things that fall under that umbrella like bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that can cause infection and disease

Germicidal products are different from this like antibacterial products or just general disinfectants. Their different attributes were designed specifically to combat germs. 

The Advantages

Now that we’ve told you what a germicidal product is, we can talk about the advantages of these germicidal wipes. Not only will this cover germicidal wipes, but the advantages of wipes as a whole. 

Convenient Container

The first advantage of wipes is that they’re very convenient. No need to rush to find the right chemical, then find something to put it on and wipe away. That’ll take too long. Wipes have the advantage of germ-killing power in an easily accessible format. Just open the container, pull one out and wipe away. And they’re easy to dispose of too. No need to worry about spending time trying to figure things out, especially when you’re short on time. You’ve got appointments to fill, and these fast acting germicidal wipes are going to be your best friend on days like that. 

Buy in Bulk, Buy and Large

When it comes to pricing, germicidal wipes (and medical wipes in general) are like gloves. The better they are, they’ll be that little bit more expensive than regular store bought brands. But the store bought stuff can’t do what these can. Germicidal wipes are fast acting germ killers, that can tackle any job in minutes, tops. And for that kind of power, you pay for what you get. But when it comes down to it, even the good stuff has economical advantages, like buying in bulk. 

With us, you can buy certain wipes in varying sizes. It can range from single containers, to boxes, to even palette-fulls of germicidal wipes. There’s no need to worry about running out or breaking the bank when you buy in bulk. 

Fast Work Times with None of the Worry

Wipes are great for cleaning because they don’t require any preparation before you can use them. Germicidal wipes also work quickly. They work well on surfaces and equipment, as well as in hard-to-reach places with quite the high amount of staying power. The wipes are fast acting, which means that the disinfection process can be completed in just a few minutes. Some types of germicidal wipes can take up to 2-3 minutes to fully complete the germ-killing process. But some wipes can do it in just 30 seconds, and can even continue to work minutes after with the liquid still working on the surface after application. 

And, unlike some cleaning chemicals or germicidal products, these wipes are non-toxic. Germicidal wipes kill bacteria, viruses and fungi without harming humans or pets (as long as you don’t eat them). When used correctly and regularly, these products can help keep your facility clean while protecting both employees’ health as well as their patients’ wellbeing.
