Decon Wipes

Decon Wipes

Cleaning equipment and surfaces between calls helps protect crews and patients. This category includes Clorox Healthcare bleach germicidal wipes in canisters and refill tubs, Clorox hydrogen peroxide disinfecting wipes, Clorox VersaSure wipes with dispensing bucket, a Medline replacement bucket and lid for dry wipes, and Fox Labs Sudecon wipes for pepper spray decontamination.

How to choose

  • Surface vs. skin: Disinfecting wipes are for hard surfaces and equipment. Sudecon wipes are made to help remove OC pepper spray residue from skin.
  • Contact time: Every disinfectant lists a wet contact time on the label. Keep the surface wet for that time to get the claimed result.
  • Material compatibility: Bleach can be harsh on some plastics and fabrics; hydrogen peroxide is often gentler. Check your equipment maker's cleaning guidance.
  • Format: Canisters suit a rig or cruiser; refill tubs and buckets suit a station.
