Sterilization wraps are specialized materials used to encase and protect medical instruments and other items in order to maintain their sterility after they have been sterilized and until they are used. These wraps are designed to be both permeable enough to allow the penetration of sterilizing agents, such as steam or ethylene oxide, and impermeable enough to resist the entry of microbes and other contaminants. Typically made from materials like SMS (spunbond-meltblown-spunbond) fabric or non-woven polypropylene, sterilization wraps are crucial in preventing hospital-acquired infections by ensuring that medical tools remain sterile and safe for use in surgical and medical procedures.
