Sterilization indicators are your fail safe

Failures in your sterilization processes can cause production shutdowns, recalls, regulatory fines, or worse still, jeopardize patient health. CleanMark’s sterilization indicator labels, strips, tape, and dots give you confidence that your sterilization processes have been completed.

Autoclave indicator labels

CleanMark’s autoclave indicator labels indicate successful autoclave sterilization with a light to dark gray color change and/or text appearance. They’re heat, pressure, and moisture resistant to withstand harsh autoclave conditions.

Gamma indicator labels

Our gamma indicator labels resist radiation degradation, preserving legibility and ensuring good adhesion. A yellow to red color change and/or text appearance is a quick-glance indicator of successful gamma sterilization.

EtO indicator labels

Durability against prolonged moisture, heat, and chemical exposure is a key feature of CleanMark’s EtO indicator labels. An easy-to-read color change from green to purple indicates successful gamma irradiation. 

Pick your sterilization indicator shape

The flexibility of our indicator ink placement means your labels can do double — or triple or quadruple — duty, conveying multiple types of information on one label.

Sterile labels increase productivity in sensitive environments

Labels are small but essential elements of operations. They facilitate tracking, control quality, prove compliance, and ensure consistency in your processes. They can also be a source of contamination. CleanMark sterile labels get you all the benefits with none of the risks. 

Processed in a clean environment

Our state-of-the-art cleanroom processing facility and post-manufacturing sterilization procedures ensure every label we ship is free of harmful contaminants.

No bacteria-attracting adhesive residue

Out sterile labels stay put when they’re supposed to and remove cleanly when designed to do so — so you’re never left with a sticky surface.

Durability in harsh lab environments

CleanMark’s sterile labels are durable against a range of challenging environmental conditions, ensuring no contaminating particles are shed.

ISO 11140-1:2014 compliant indicator inks

In highly regulated environments like pharmaceutical manufacturing and BioTech, compliance is non-negotiable. CleanMark’s indicator inks are ISO compliant and make it easier to track other regulatory requirements like inspections and quality checks.

There’s more to a label than sterility

The best labels don’t just perform one function — they’re a constellation of features that allow the label to function perfectly in your unique environment and processes.  CleanMark has the expertise to ensure  your label has the right combination of features to perform flawlessly.
