The Benefits of Refurbished Sterilizers for your Sterile Processing Department

Revamp Your Sterile Processing: Why Refurbished Medical Sterilizers Are Worth the Investment

If you’re looking for a way to upgrade your facility, lab or sterile processing department (SPD) but don’t have the budget for brand new equipment, then refurbished sterilizers may be the answer. These machines undergo a rigorous refurbishing process that includes cleaning, testing, and any necessary repairs to bring them back to like-new condition. By investing in refurbished sterilizers, you can give your department a much-needed facelift without breaking the bank.

Save Money, Save Time, and Improve Efficiency: The Advantages of Choosing Refurbished Sterilization Equipment

One of the main advantages of choosing refurbished  medical sterilization equipment is the cost savings. Refurbished machines are often significantly cheaper than new ones, but that doesn’t mean they’re inferior in quality. In fact, at Auxo Medical, our refurbished sterilizers are just as reliable and efficient as new ones, thanks to our specialized refurbishing process. By opting for a refurbished machine, you can save money that can be used for other important areas of your department, such as training or equipment maintenance. In addition to cost savings, refurbished sterilizers can also save you time and improve efficiency. If your department’s sterilization equipment is old or unreliable, it can lead to delays in processing and a backlog of work. With refurbished equipment, you can reduce the number of breakdowns and downtime, which translates to a quicker turnaround time for processing instruments. This can lead to a more efficient department overall and happier customers.

Upgrading Your Sterilization Game: How Refurbished Sterilizers Can Benefit Your Sterile Processing Department

Upgrading your sterilization game doesn’t have to mean buying brand new equipment. Refurbished sterilizers can provide many benefits, such as improved reliability, consistency, and safety. These machines go through a rigorous refurbishing process that includes replacing any worn parts, cleaning and sanitizing, and testing to ensure they meet industry standards. By investing in refurbished sterilizers, you can improve the quality of your department’s sterilization processes and ensure the safety of your patients and staff. Refurbished sterilizers can also provide your department with the latest technology at a fraction of the cost of new equipment. When you buy new equipment, you’re paying for the latest features and upgrades, but with refurbished equipment, you can get many of the same benefits without the high price tag. This can be especially useful for surgery centers, labs or smaller departments that may not have the budget for expensive technology upgrades.

4 Types of Refurbished Sterilizers Auxo Medical Offers

Medical sterilizers disinfect surgical instruments and other medical tools. At Auxo Medical, we offer refurbished medical sterilizers that have been repaired and restored to manufacturer specifications. That means they work just as well as new sterilizers for a fraction of the price.

Our Refurbished Medical Sterilizers

Medical sterilizers can use different sterilization methods. Some of the refurbished medical sterilizers that we offer include:

Autoclaves

Autoclaves use high-pressure steam to sterilize equipment. These high-temperature and pressure tools can kill harmful bacteria and viruses. After a procedure, the medical equipment is placed in the autoclave to go through a cleaning cycle. Once it is complete, the instruments are ready to be used again. At Auxo Medical, we have refurbished autoclaves from brands like Ritter and Tuttnauer.

Chemical Sterilizers

Tuttnauer PlazmaxChemical sterilizers kill bacteria and viruses on medical equipment. The most common chemicals used in these sterilizers are Ethylene oxide and Hydrogen peroxide gas plasma. Chemical sterilizers are a good option for instruments that cannot withstand heat or pressure from an autoclave. They are also eco-friendly because they use less water and energy than autoclaves.

Ultraviolet Sterilizers

Ultraviolet sterilizers use UV light to kill bacteria by deactivating them and stopping reproduction. UV rays are nontoxic, making them a safe way to kill bacteria from all surfaces. Our products are portable and can be used for cleaning air, surfaces, and medical equipment. We carry many cost-effective ultraviolet sterilizers to sanitize your equipment or instruments while staying within your budget. 

Dri-Clave

Dry Heat Sterilizers

Dry heat sterilizers clean equipment by causing the cells of the bacteria and viruses to burst, otherwise called oxidation. Dry heat sterilizers do not use pressure, steam, or chemicals. They also have the shortest sterilization time, and you do not need to dry the instruments afterward. In terms of maintenance, they do not require routine cleaning like wet heat sterilization methods do.

Why Choose Refurbished Medical Sterilizers?

There are several reasons that you should consider investing in a refurbished medical sterilizer, including:

Cost-effective

Refurbished medical equipment is a more cost-effective option than buying new equipment, and they come with warranties and services that help prevent having to purchase equipment more frequently. Saving money with refurbished equipment allows you to allocate money and resources to patients or projects that may require more funding. 

High-quality

Our technicians repair our equipment to meet original equipment manufacturer (OEM) standards. This means that even though the equipment is technically used, it works as well as a new model. We pride ourselves on providing high-quality equipment to our customers, so we always make sure our equipment is in good working condition before sending it out.

Eco-friendly

Buying a refurbished piece of equipment reduces the need for new equipment, which also means less waste. By choosing refurbished medical equipment, you are helping the environment. 

Reliable

Refurbished medical equipment has been recently restored, inspected, and tested. That means that when it is delivered, you can have peace of mind that it has passed multiple tests and calibrations. We also offer preventative maintenance service plans if you want even more reliability. If you buy the alpha plan, you get both scheduled preventative labor and travel and unscheduled labor and travel. If your equipment breaks down, you can call us, and we will come to fix your equipment as soon as we can and without any additional cost. We offer four service plans that you can decide between. See all of our plans here.
