INTRODUCTION
Disinfection and antiseptics are important 
parts of infection prevention in hospitals, 
clinics, laboratories, nursing facilities, and 
home-care settings. The right products 
can help reduce harmful microorganisms 
on appropriate surfaces, equipment, and 
skin.
WHY DISINFECTION & 
ANTISEPTICS MATTER
Microorganisms can spread easily in healthcare environments 
through hands, surfaces, medical equipment, and contact with 
contaminated materials. Regular cleaning, disinfection, and 
antiseptics are therefore important parts of infection-control 
practices. Choosing the right product for the intended application 
can help reduce microbial contamination and support safer 
environments in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare settings. 
Whether used for hands, skin, or suitable surfaces, proper product 
selection and correct application are essential for effective hygiene 
and infection control.

active ingredients. The appropriate option depends on the 
intended use, patient requirements and product instructions.

products.

DISINFECTANTS FOR 
HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENTS
• Disinfectants help maintain hygiene on 
suitable healthcare surfaces and equipment.
• High-touch areas such as beds, examination 
tables and trolleys may require regular 
cleaning and disinfection.
• Choose products based on surface 
compatibility, active ingredients and 
recommended concentration.
• Follow the required contact time and 
manufacturer’s instructions for proper use.
HAND HYGIENE & 
HANDRUBS
Hand hygiene is an essential part of routine healthcare practices, as 
healthcare professionals regularly come into contact with patients, 
medical equipment and various surfaces. Alcohol-based handrubs offer a 
convenient option when hands are not visibly soiled and are used 
according to product instructions. Regular hand hygiene supports 
infection-control practices, helps maintain hand cleanliness and provides 
a practical solution for frequent use in hospitals, clinics and other 
healthcare environments. SurgiNatal offers a range of healthcare 
hygiene products from established medical brands.
SURGICAL SKIN 
PREPARATION
Before certain medical procedures, appropriate skin-preparation 
products may be used to help reduce microorganisms at the 
procedure site. Preparations containing chlorhexidine and alcohol 
are commonly used in healthcare settings, depending on the 
intended application and manufacturer’s guidelines. For example, 
SurgiNatal offers 3M Skin Prep Solution with CHG and 70% 
Isopropyl Alcohol. When selecting a skin-preparation product, 
healthcare professionals should consider the procedure type, 
application site, patient requirements, active ingredients, product 
instructions and recommended drying or contact time.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE 
RIGHT PRODUCT
Choosing the right antiseptic or disinfectant starts with understanding 
where and how the product is intended to be used. Products designed for 
skin should not be used on medical equipment or environmental surfaces 
unless specifically approved, while surface disinfectants should not be 
applied to the body. Selecting the appropriate product helps support safe 
and effective healthcare hygiene practices.
Before purchasing, consider the intended application, active ingredients, 
concentration, pack size, contact time, material compatibility and storage 
requirements. It is also important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions 
and choose a product based on the specific healthcare requirement rather 
than price alone.
SAFE USE & HANDLING
Disinfection and antiseptic products should always be used and 
handled carefully to ensure safe and effective application. Using 
the wrong concentration, applying a product to an unsuitable 
surface or not following the recommended contact time can reduce 
its effectiveness and may lead to safety concerns. Always read the 
product label, follow the recommended concentration and use the 
product only for its intended purpose. Products should be stored as 
directed, containers kept properly closed and chemicals should 
never be mixed unless specifically permitted by the manufacturer. 
Healthcare professionals should also follow relevant institutional 
protocols and safety guidelines.
