Further Information:
• Made from 100% cotton gauze type 13 and manufactured to BP/EN 14079 standards.
• The length and position of the red tie cords ensures easy removal from swab bundle.
• Soft, strong and highly absorbent.
• The X–Ray Detectable Swabs have a 60–62% barium sulphate content (exceeding EU Standards) giving maximum visibility on all commonly used x–ray devices.
