Autoclaves are a type of sterilising equipment that uses steam under pressure to effectively kill harmful bacteria, fungi viruses, and spores on items that are placed inside the chamber (the pressure vessel).
The items placed inside the autoclave chamber are heated to a validated temperature for a set period of time, this allows the moisture in the steam to effectively transfer the heat to the items inside to effectively destroy protein structures of the bacteria and spores.
Sychem works closely with our partner Steelco to deliver their premium range of Autoclaves. Find out more about the ranges for each sector below.
