Proudly water soluble laundry bags are specifically made for hospital and healthcare industry operators. These bags are made from water soluble PVA film and are 100% Bio-degradable! It's a cost effective solution which substantially reduces the risk of contamination and cross-infection to staff, patients and laundry personnel. Contaminated linen is placed in the bag which can then be sealed with the attached cold water soluble tie tape. The filled bag is then transferred to the laundry and put unopened into the washer. The bags dissolve completely in the wash, leaving no potentially infected plastic waste. The contents of the bags need not be handled until the wash and dry cycle is complete. The water-soluble laundry bags are intended to enhance health care infection control processes in handling and transferring infected linens or other materials. These bags are impermeable to bacteria and viruses, totally biodegradable and will not leave any environmental pollutant residue.
