Surface Compatibility: Why the Wrong Disinfectant is Ruining Your Equipment

Is your disinfectant killing your pathogens... and your medical monitors?

Modern medical equipment—monitors, infusion pumps, and imaging machines—is a multi-million dollar investment. However, many hospital-grade disinfectants are formulated with harsh chemistries that can cause "environmental stress cracking" in plastics and degrade the integrity of medical-grade vinyl.

Once a surface cracks, it becomes a sanctuary for bacteria, making it impossible to truly disinfect. You aren't just losing money on equipment; you're creating a new infection risk.

The HES Advantage: At HealthEnviroSolutions, we prioritize material compatibility. Our disinfectants are chosen for their ability to achieve a broad-spectrum kill while remaining gentle on the high-tech surfaces your staff uses every day. We help you protect your patients and your assets.
