What is the Alcohol Pad?
Alcohol prep pads, also referred to as alcohol swabs, are gauze pads soaked in alcohol. These are antiseptic wipes manufactured in our factory and ideal for cleaning a skin area before a minor operation, needle puncture, or injection. It helps prevent bacteria-caused infections.
Alcohol pads are antiseptic and hinder microorganisms’ growth and reproduction. They’re applied to the skin or living tissue to reduce the chances of putrefaction, sepsis, or infection.
These pads are saturated with 70% alcohol and sealed in multi-layer foil bags. They prevent leakage or drying out of the alcohol and ensure maximum sterilization.
Our alcohol pads contain:
- 30mm×65mm 2ply gauze swabs, and we also customize the size according to client requirements
- Isopropyl alcohol which we make
We have the following options for alcohol pads:
- 70% Isopropyl alcohol pads
- 75% Isopropyl alcohol pads
- 70% Isopropyl alcohol and 2% chlorhexidine alcohol pads
Are Alcohol Prep Pads the Same as Rubbing Alcohol?
No – rubbing alcohol and isopropyl alcohol aren’t the same thing. Isopropyl alcohol is a pure alcohol colorless liquid with a sharp, musty odor. There aren’t any other ingredients in an isopropyl alcohol bottle. On the contrary, rubbing alcohol contains isopropyl alcohol together with other ingredients like water.
When Do You Need to Use Alcohol Pads?
Alcohol pads are crucial to a first aid kit because they help clean and disinfect scrapes and cuts. You can find these alcohol swabs in hospitals and at home because they’re a quick and easy way to disinfect the skin.
These pads come pre-packaged in small foil pouches, ensuring the alcohol doesn’t evaporate. If the swab has blood stains or other bodily wastes, you should handle it as bio-hazardous waste.
Is Isopropyl Alcohol Good for Wounds?
Whe you apply isopropyl alcohol to open wounds, you risk causing tissue damage and slowing down the healing process.
