Metrex CaviWipes disinfecting wipes 160‑count canister, 12‑pack — 3-minute contact time, low‑alcohol formula

Metrex CaviWipes are pre-saturated, hospital-grade disinfecting wipes in 160-count canisters (12 canisters per case) designed for fast, reliable surface cleaning in professional settings.

These ready-to-use wipes come filled with a low-alcohol, quaternary-based formula that cleans and disinfects hard, non-porous surfaces commonly found in healthcare, dental, laboratory, and veterinary environments. Each 6" x 6.75" towelette is made from a durable nonwoven material to resist tearing while delivering even coverage. With a three-minute contact time when used as directed, the wipes are intended to fit into tight cleaning workflows where dependable surface sanitation and convenience matter most.

How quickly do CaviWipes work and what does contact time mean?

Contact time refers to how long the surface must remain visibly wet from the wipe for the disinfectant to achieve its tested effectiveness. CaviWipes are formulated to achieve their claimed results with a three-minute contact time when applied correctly and kept wet for that duration.

• Three-minute wet contact time for routine surface disinfection.
• Use enough wipes or multiple passes to keep the area visibly wet for the full period.
• Follow facility protocols for dwell time and reapplication on high-touch items.

What surfaces and settings are these disinfecting wipes suitable for?

These wipes are intended for hard, non-porous materials like stainless steel, glass, plastics, and sealed countertops commonly found in clinical and laboratory spaces. They are designed for routine cleaning of exam tables, equipment surfaces, counters, and other frequently touched areas—not for porous fabrics or items requiring sterilization.

• Safe for stainless steel, glass, acrylics, and many plastics when used as directed.
• Commonly used in hospitals, dental offices, clinics, labs, and veterinary practices.
• Not intended for porous surfaces or instruments that require autoclaving.

How durable are the wipes and how are they dispensed?

Each wipe is manufactured from a robust nonwoven material that resists tearing even when applying pressure across large areas or around equipment. The canister design allows single-handed dispensing to minimize cross-contamination and maintain workflow speed.

• Nonwoven sheet construction provides strength and consistent liquid distribution.
• 6" x 6.75" size balances coverage and control for spot cleaning and equipment wipe-downs.
• Canister dispensing reduces waste and keeps remaining wipes moist and ready to use.

How should I store and manage supply of a 12-pack case?

The 12-canister case simplifies stocking for busy departments and reduces the frequency of reorder cycles. Store canisters upright in a cool, dry area away from direct heat and follow your facility’s expiration policies for chemical products.

• Each case includes 12 canisters of 160 wipes each for extended supply.
• Keep lids sealed between uses to preserve moisture and performance.
• Rotate stock by date and dispose of wipes per facility waste procedures.
