We use the patented Andersen EOGas process where very small amounts of sterilant are used to sterilize small to mid-sized volume loads. Unlike traditional chambers, where an entire 696 cubic foot (12 pallet) chamber is filled with Ethylene Oxide, our process uses multiple "micro" chambers, each measuring only 1 to 1¼ cubic feet in volume. This allows us to process a single device in our sterilizer and only charge the "micro" chamber price. Each chamber is loaded with its own Ethylene Oxide gas cartridge; this way there is no waste when smaller loads are processed. Furthermore, each chamber can be loaded into the sterilizer at different times, giving us increased flexibility when loads are processed. It is this function that allows us to decrease our fees and our turnaround times.
