A LITTLE GUIDANCE

Find infection control supplies by task

The Birchward Medical hygiene range covers gloves, surface cleaning, hand and skin hygiene, masks, PPE, paper products, dispensers, spill and sharps supplies, and waste disposal. Separate routes make it easier to distinguish routine replenishment from products with specific handling or compatibility requirements.

A few checks before you choose

Do not assume so. Check the product’s intended use and instructions. Surface-cleaning products and skin-cleansing products are listed separately where appropriate.

Check the size and material on the product page and any manufacturer sizing information. The required specification depends on the task and your organisation’s procedures.

Compare the exact dispenser model and supported refill format. Check the refill’s dimensions or pack reference, and contact us with both product references if uncertain.

Read the stated purpose, pack contents and relevant product specifications. Select supplies in line with your setting’s risk assessment and procedures, then follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
